the 2, 40 year old top 20 players are more injured than not this year.

age has really caught up to them.
Chuang is still going as far today goes.
Father Time remains undefeated, even for amateurs. I now play less than 4 times a week and enjoy play more. Before I used to play almost every day and my body felt it.

If I play four times a week, my knees will let me know their true feelings. Twice a week and everyone's happy.

Who makes the Diaz out !!! hou hou hou hou

Sorry couldn't resist.

What's that shitty organization ? poor lightnings, poor tables with annoying reflections (Barbora Balazova is complaining about that) arena that looks like a WTT Feeder event, tiny playgrounds with poor equipment...

SA is the rugby nation, but definitely not the TT one...

The world major events must come back to Europe ASAP, Period. Since China has taken over ITTF with the WTT bs, it's a total nonsense.

Here's what it looked like in Paris

Houston has been nice, but now the comedy has lasted enough.

In 1977 they hosted the world championships at the national exhibition center in Birmingham...

So we have to be 46 years back now ? come on be serious a minute, they told us WTT was better for the events' organization, that's not better, it's WORSE !!!

its already over for Lily ZHANG :-(
Not a surprise, she's done since more than 1 year complaining about her money standards not being what she thinks they should be. Kanak and Adriana havemoved overseas to find opposition to improve their skills, she has done nothing, she could have been well paid in Europe, like Linz, Metz, Saint Denis or Berlin, the top clubs, did she asked them ? no, she really has nothing to say. She thought everything should be given to her because she made 1 season in China, really wrong mindset...

Olah beating Kallberg has to be all about Kallberg and I say that as a fan of both. Falck I think ran into a team with good pips coaches but my memory may be wrong.

The draws are somewhat insane. I looked at Quadri's draw and he is surrounded by Ionescu (who he survived in a tough match), Robles and Gauzy and if he gets past them all, his reward is potentially Harimoto. Other players are lucky to be getting players from non-sti countries in the earlier rounds. But hey, Kallberg got Olah from Finland and while Olah is a beast, Kallberg should win that 3‐1 up, hopefully highlights will show up sometime.
