Also, the top players are absent from this tournament
a decade+ ago when the top players are absent, the 2nd tier 1st teamers or even just 2nd tiers will just come and still beat the rest of the world straights

before you can easily say, the weakest 3 in the top tier will still beat the number 2 team

now, other than the top 3, they are a walking glass and are loosing so much.

2024, CNT lost to more foreigners than the past 20 years added together probably and I might not be out by much

The CNT gets defeated more and more around the same time hybrid rubbers are introduced. Coincidence?

hybrids has been around for over a decade
a more accurate coincidence is WTT has destroyed CNT lol

imagine LGL being a western agent

During the broadcast, they alluded to Persson's retirement. That might also be impacting Moregard.
That may be a factor, but Moregard has always had trouble with the Lebrun brothers and Jorgic, and in general BH-oriented players. Now that Alexis's BH has been tamed (until it gets out of control again), Moregard will have a hard time going forward. It's similar to Szocs against Polcanova and Batra.

Yeah, no doubt we are all speculating here as to the impact of things like coaching changes. That said, he did beat Jorgic in the previous round and he managed to beat Harimoto in China in part as a result of his backhand play. With all these young players, a lot comes down to the ability and willingness to explore solutions. Truls, Harimoto and now the Lebruns have all convinced me that they will do whatever it takes, doesn't mean it will work but they will do whatever they can.

Montpellier is the place of vengeance, all 4 MS QF matches are between the players that one have absolute winning record against another.

MS QF H2H:
LSD - LYJ 3:0
Alexis - Felix 2:0 (10:0 including domestic ones)
Harimoto - Franziska 8:0
LJK - Duda 3:0

So who can get their revenge? 🤯

Most Tieba users bet on Duda to get it done.

(LMAO. The ones on the right combined can't even come up with 1 win)

殇变的伪装者 可能性按高低应该是杜达—小弗—台林—F勒,杜达最近状态不错,刚好坤坤一坨,小弗昨天刚把果子哥过了,上一次和张本对战是23年新乡,有很长时间没打了,赢的可能性是大的,台林这几天看起来打得挺拼的,有机会,F勒只能说除非有意外发生

(In order of probability, it should be Duda, Little F, TPE Lin, F. Le. Duda has been in good shape recently, and Kunkun happens to be playing like crap. Little F just defeated Brother Fruit yesterday. The last time he played against Harimoto was at WTT CS Xinxiang 2023. It has been a long time since they played. The possibility of his winning is great. TPE Lin seems to have fought quite hard the past few days, so he has a chance. As for F. Le, we can only say that unless something unexpected happens)

beebeezzzz 昨晚莫雷要是赢了小勒就是主人,莫雷输了小勒就是男仆,不知道他哥赢的时候小勒什么心理活动

(If More won last night, Little Le would be the master, and if More lost, Little Le would be the servant. I wonder what went through Little Le's mind when his brother won)

That's a great bit of info ahead of these matches.
I reckon LYJ, Felix and Duda all have a good chance to remove their bagels
Franziska not so much, gonna be 9:0 there

Wow, Duda is delivering. Will LJK be able to come back? The coach says he should play like himself, Duda’s game is not hard. He’s also saying he should rally less and should play more tricky like flicking, pushing long to the middle, etc., he should do whatever he can instead of hesitating, and play more to his middle. I love that we can hear their discussion

Seems like they should have just let Duda play instead
Remember after the Olympics when everyone was writing obituaries for Harimoto's career and the future of the German Men's team?

Things really turned around pretty sharply since the.
