United States (US) Smash 2026, Los Angeles, California, USA 26 Jun - 5 Jul 2026

[M51]

Typical Anders, slays a king, doesn't show up.

 

[Oliverpool]

Sora on fire in the first

He only wants to play lefties. This one a kid but lefty.

Well it’s early days. Only 2 sets. Maybe there’s time

Sora, you're making me look silly out here!

Pretty much flawless from Sora.

Sora had no problem with those strawberry chops and Sora rallies better than Wang. Also has better breaking deep serves. I am sure China learned a thing or two watching that match. And Anders needs to get better at straight up table tennis to deal with Sora and be more strategic with the 3rd ball placement.

Maybe Sora learned a thing or two from the WCQ-Lind match to beat Lind?

While Lind played Sora injured after he bear Lin Shidong if I recall correctly, Sora has never lost to Lind. It is more about the matchup especially on serve return. Compared to when he plays Want, Lind gets nothing on serve return vs Sora.

 

[Kopp]

ALso umpires should be limited to two chances for wrong calls as well. ..

This is so stupid and so right at the same time 😂

I skipped the Sun Yingsha - Chen Xingtong match for the most part - I like the ladies but I decided I would watch it if and after CXT won a game and that didn't happen.

 

[TampaBayTableTennis]

Truls in similarly dominant fashion... heating up at the right time

 

[MatsushimaAlc]

Truls not making any mistakes, even while pulling out the agressive backhands vs heavy pushes and being able to stand up to a player like Jang in loop rallies. Scary stuff

 

[ejbsaio6781]

Anyone know what Sato's current setup is?

TT reference is almost certainly outdated: https://tabletennis-reference.com/player/detail/1088 - she clearly has some butterfly blade (Diode V or JSH?) and she is now using a red inverted, so it can't be H3 BS

 

[TampaBayTableTennis]

fun rallies

 

[NextLevel]

Looks like high arcing topspin is working....

 

[shaibu]

Did Bobrow just describe a point as being funkier than a wet sock?

 

[TampaBayTableTennis]

honestly, quite a fun dynamic here. enjoying this matchup

 

[NextLevel]

I completely forgot this was a best of 7.

 

[shaibu]

Expedite rule, this is going to be interesting.

 

[TampaBayTableTennis]

anyone in the arena who can give us play by play?

Lost my transmission, not sure how the score got to 3-3 so fast lol...
