phelps 6,862 Posted April 24, 2019 #14 Share Posted April 24, 2019 in the meantime, in the women's singles, tonight it's gonna be the round of 16... there are 16 girls still in the game and they are all from Asia (5x CHN, 4x JPN, 2x HKG, 2x PRK, KOR, TPE, SGP)...

Thanks Wang Yang he is certainly one of the above average table tennis defenders. but I really don´t like his style, even if he time by time on his great day can bring us some interesting results and beat anyone, he has also the really frustrating tendency to give up too early, like he did in Rio 2016 during that match against Quadri Aruna.... Barbora Balážová is argaubly our best athlete in this sport, maybe in all history, she has already achieved several successes but in W Doubles with her Czech team mate Hana Matelová if I´m not wrong, but I had really no single hopes she can reach such success altogether with Ľubomir Pištej in the mixed doubles at a major worldwide event.

I don't think there's much difference to have Asians representing Asian countries or Asians representing other countries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phelps 6,862 Posted April 25, 2019 #17 Share Posted April 25, 2019 end of dreams for the Slovakian pair...they lost 4 sets to 2 against a Japanese duo... and we have the first medallists, as both pairs losing in the semifinal matches will get in any case their bronze medal... the 4 pairs into the semifinals are 2 from China (facing each other, which means that we won't have an all-CHN final) and 1 each from Japan and Germany (which means that in this discipline we won't have an all-Asian sweep)... unfortunately we won't have the same variety of Nations and Continents in all the 5 disciplines... hckošice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EselTheDonkey 685 Posted April 25, 2019 #20 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Timo Boll has gotten fever and can't participate in the Singles round of 16. They try to get him fit for the doubles quarterfinals. Gianlu33 and thepharoah 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
