Dude’s playing like he is injured.
Maybe it’s got to do with his shoulder that always has strapping on it recently. I recall the male commentator of the Finals saying Kobayashi has...
At least he actually had a proper try this time around; the previous year since his back injury against Nishimoto he’s gone face down and without...
SYQ was not mentally in it; LSF is calm and focussed and made no silly errors, also Momota was clearing and lifting long very often. Even when LSF...
Honestly, before this point I struggle to remember the last time Momota has successfully attempted one, much less won a point off it. You...
Actually could absorb some good angles from SYQ and turn defence into attack, absorbing SYQ’s attempts to push him laterally to the left and right...
Momota takes game one, he actually has control over the game for once.
The Taiwanese player also won against Ng Ka Long (a veteran of the top 10-25 ranks) pretty convincingly; he beat Shi Yuqi 21-15, 21-19 but that...
Coule be but imho logically it’s that: 1. the meta of the game at the highest levels has evolved to include a faster, more push oriented game...
Viktor is objectively better than everyone (at a minimum the level of Prime Momota and maybe even better because of his height); he might not have...
Everyone complaining about Kodai vs KV, the boy has played 4 straight 3 setters now vs LZJ (power), NTY (all-rounded), Prannoy (all-rounder who...
Agreed. This is not the JP thread but the other three somehow lack any real weapon or ability required to consistently challenge the top 10;...
It’s gonna be one of those finals again.
Heard Gronya say it was in Thailand; can anyone confirm?
*SPOILERS* Felt like a pretty smart game between SYQ and Naraoka; the JP player might have won had not he been just a bit too anxious in the last...
NTY had a easy game against the Aus player; it was clear he was outclassed. I would still say that the JP semifinalist could beat any of the...
Weight: 3U Strings: 26lbs BG80, 3 days off the stringing machine. Who: Intermediate-Advanced player (comps), owns Li Ning (Aeronaut 9000C) and...
Shi Yuqi downed by Thamassin in 2 games with a comfortable scoreline; must be fatigued.
Can confirm that original 88D in 4U is well balanced and stable, preferred racket if I did not have a preference for Li Nings.
I’d disagree.. Momota was said to have much better attack pre-accident (by Gillian and Morten). At some point it’s simply more effective to have...
