WTT CHAMPIONS MONTPELLIER

[zeio]

Not unless Alexis self-destructs or Moregard finds a way to make him do that.

A. Lebrun 3-1 Moregard (9, -9, 3, 3)
G1 80, 86 TO for Lebrun, 87, 97, 99, 119
G2 64, 67, 77 sideline edge for Lebrun, 79, 89, 810, 910, 911
G3 41, 43, 53 sideline edge for Lebrun (Moregard losing his cool), 63 slight net for Lebrun, 93 Moregard's chopblock didn't work, 113 7 in a row
G4 41 TO for Moregard, 61, 82, 92, 93, 113

The Lebrun brothers are immune to Moregard's creativity. This could mark the start of another slump for Moregard after WTTC 2021.

Similarly, will Moregard ever take the singles title, with Jorgic and the Lebrun brothers around?

What took France so long to hold a WTT Series event?

Does anyone know the name of the new commentator on the Moregard LeBrun match?
He sounds Irish!

Truls wasn’t mentally fit this time. He lost it in the 3:rd. Whereas Alexis lost it in the 1:st but came back…
This is so much a mental game…

Cheers

The event is very nice. Lin Shidong absolute beast on the BH. Alexis will beat his brother tomorrow.

I'm not so sure.

If you meant Paris 2024, well, Kallberg would've lost in straight games had Harimoto not suffered from leg cramps, just like how JWJ would've lost in straight games at Asian Games 2022. The consensus over at Tieba is that had either Togami or Shinozuka been useful for once, JPN would've gotten the silver medal at a minimum and Kallberg wouldn't even have had the chance to play the last singles match. And then at ETTC 2024, Kallberg lost to Moregard for the first time in 3 international encounters, and the most important one thus far.

A similar situation occurred in badminton at Paris 2024. He Bingjiao ended up with a silver medal after Marin was up but had to forfeit during the SF match due to a broken knee (which has bothered her for a long while). But despite Marin's notoriety for her on-court behavior, He Bingjiao held up a Spain pin next to the silver medal as a gesture during the award ceremony. I wish something like that had happened for table tennis.

Such a beautiful gesture from He Bingjiao, A true champion on and off the court!❤️

I am pretty sure. In addition to beating Harimoto and Liang, his overall performances have just been better. Everyone loses so losing can't be the barometer. Both players displayed a high level.

Posts yes but threads, I thought not?

I will run tests later when I care a bit more.

You can remain with your current level of caring, I can confirm you were incorrect. 😉
If you have someone on ignore you won't see their posts or threads.

Like in their first encounter, Pavade's shots reached the power threshold that made Ito feel uncomfortable as the match went on. But after losing the last 2 times, Ito made sure she didn't ease this time.

Mima played a perfect match vs. Pavade.

Pavade is slower than the other players at this stage.

Insane read from Franziska on each point to go from 6-9 to 11-9.

All mental.

Big GG.

Franziska 3-2 Calderano

 

[Robin0910]

HOLY MOLY, HE DOES IT!! What a mental toughness in the last game by Franziska. Perhaps a Saudi 2.0?!

 

[d3nium]

Alexis is my dark horse to win the competition 👌

 

[Grumms]

Weird match between Franziska and Calderano. Calderano won everything with his FH and the German everything with his BH.

 

[TampaBayTableTennis]

Wow what a great day of matches!!!

If you have someone on ignore you won't see their posts or threads.

I see their posts and threads as being done by someone on my ignore list and have the option to click on them and read them or not, but they are not presented to me as readable at first. What you are saying is that they are not even visible, a change in how the function has worked historically so I would have to confirm that myself.

So thanks for your contribution, but given that I have a long period of experience using ignore, forgive me if I don't take your word just because you said it. If the post is marked as being by someone you ignore, that is different from the post being entirely invisible.

During the broadcast, they alluded to Persson's retirement. That might also be impacting Moregard.
