European Championships 2018

Europe has some youngsters that look really promising at ~20 but then failing to make the final steps towards world elite. Calderano, Gauzy, Pitchford, Franziska... Still great top 20 players now but simply not reaching top 5. For these players the ETTU needs good personal trainers

Calderano's not European, and neither is Pitchford. He's from an island, entire of itself, neither piece of the continent, nor part of the main. Or so it is thought and acted upon over there, o'er the pond.

I think yoass is intimating that us Anglos would prefer to be a separate entity from eg Europe. At least half of us here in the UK think otherwise.

Well, what I tried to describe is the basic thought of thinking about Europe as an external entity. No matter, off-topic, and I might as well not have made that remark at all. (Yet, I find stuff that brings Donne to mind all too tempting. Sorry.)

Wait a minute. During the British colonial era, this was how the book taught me about the world map: Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe, Australia, collectively known as Britannia.

Oh ye sorry didn't think twice about Calderano, but I guess you know what my point is.
