I was convinced TH had the best bh in the world, I don't see why his fh would not become the best in the world as well, he puts so much into it, some have theorized a danger of injury for the lower back but it seems the legs are mostly responsible and the torso does not travel much past the hips axis so I want to believe he is as safe as he can be and his fh is totally under control to utterly dominate until retirement. This guy is so phenomenal.

if his forehand will become the best in the world, he has to give it more than due attention and effort and long long hours like the Chinese players and well as typical of the Chinese play get a little decrepit in his backhand

An article by Nikkan-Gendai on Ishikawa's response to the voice of "change of generation." In the article the author quotes Ishikawa's H2H against China from the site Takkyu-Navi(which counts the wins in doubles) and compares them with Ito and Hirano.
https://www.nikkan-gendai.com/articles/view/sports/248688
"I think I can grow only because I have rivals, and I don't think age has anything to do with the outcome when it comes to playing. Table tennis is a sport where tactics will greatly affect the match. (The growth of youngsters) is stimulating. I'm thankful that there is a sense of angst and crisis." "I want to do my best for the Tokyo Olympics again by resetting my age and past performance." Here's what the Japanese netizens have to say on Yahoo. The article was picked up by the Chinese media. The responses in China and Taiwan are largely in line with those below. https://headlines.yahoo.co.jp/cm/main?d=20190304-00000007-nkgendai-spo
Given the top 2 players in the WR as of January, 2020 will be automatically selected as the Olympic representative, Ishikawa will be almost certain to be a representative, considering she'll be able to beat anyone other than China. Though I really want Hirano, Ito and Hayata to represent. Hayata proves she could compete against China even in singles by beating Liu. I think in terms of doubles with Ito, Hayata will probably be chosen as the 3rd member. And personally, I'd like to bet on Hirano taking into account their growth in the remaining 1.5 years. If the goal is medal in Tokyo, then Ishikawa is a good choice, but if the goal is gold in Tokyo, then I want Hirano.
Here are some bits of Ishikawa's matches against China. The 1 win against DN and LSW is in doubles. 0 wins in singles. The 1 win against ZYL is from 5, 6 years ago when she was still a junior. Needless to say, 0 wins against CM and WMY. This is why Ishikawa cannot beat China. Both Ito and Hirano have won in singles. That is a huge difference.
Ishikawa who demonstrates unmatched strength other than China. This makes it even more difficult to select from the point of view of gold medals. In a nutshell, the best team member to win a silver medal.
No need to worry about the passing of a generation by the public! Things like the passing of a generation will be fine if you beat the opponent, and if you keep losing, you will resign yourself. Even the Olympics trial should be done in a form that looks neat.
I would like for Ishikawa to go on another happy path[.] You've already played enough TT[.] What do you get by beating Ito? Give way to juniors like Ito and just retire! With your good looks and youth, you can marry as many rich young men as possible and spend the rest of your happy lives[.] [Something about life with TT alone?] I want you not to disturb young people[.] That's what you can do most now
Is low-age limited to Japan? Ishikawa is just 26. It's better not to mention age until at least 30 years old. [TL's note: I say she's already 26. Tokyo 2020 could very well be her last Olympics.]
Whatever the case, I want you to defeat as many Chinese players as possible Then no one will complain [TL's note: Not just any, but the top...]
[Something about evolving, getting stimulated and winning] Losing too much to Chinese players is too bad an image of Japanese players Mima, Hina, Miu and [Nagasaki] Miyu will be sufficient However, the experience of Ishikawa as a veteran is indispensable
Rather than "match-up", it's "the difference in ability" and "the difference in equipment". Because China mostly uses tacky rubber with a large amount of rotation, it is difficult to cope with, and you lose when you hit normally. China cannot be defeated unless the booster issue is resolved. [TL's note: Both Ishikawa and Hayata use BS "National" H3...]
It's best to avoid quoting data from Takkyu-Navi because they're wrong.
It's only natural for you to be criticized for you cannot defeat the top Chinese players, despite ranking 3rd or 4th. Not only DN, LSW, and ZYL. But also youngsters as CM, WMY, HZJ, CXT et al. who have grown remarkably. Cannot aim for gold medal.
Kasumin, please defeat the Chinese players this time. Else, have the resolve to retire from the national team |
