ATTC 2023, Pyeongchang, 9/3-10

Tieba users are left wondering if ML's back really hurts. LOL

best of 5 (even) for the finals?  Why don't they make it best of 3 or more extreme best of 1

The 2nd and 3rd set was a battle of wits, the backhand wide to the forehand came to ML's rescue a lot. An efficient way to open the game up away from LYJ's backhand strength. I found it depressing to be honest, that LYJ was so thoroughly contained by that game plan given how well he usually plays against ML and how old ML is.  Is there no hope to beat these CNT tactics?

There is hope, only that for the hope to become a reality; everything has to fall in place.

MS F
FZD vs ML
45, 55, 56, 76 epic block from FZD on ML's FH pivot flick-kill, 711. 5 in a row for ML.
01 TO for FZD, 02, 22, 23, 93, 94, 104, 105, 115. Critical TO for FZD, he lost 6 in a row from the end of G1, had to break ML's streak at all costs. That's how he always lost the initiative to ML.
01, 31 slight net for FZD, 32, 42 FZD saves a slight net and BH loop parallel instead, 44, 54, 55, 65, 66 surprise FH push-to-flick from FZD but ML saves it, 67, 77, 97 FZD pins ML to the middle and backhand so ML couldn't pivot, 117
01, 21 FZD clipped the net with that FH pivot, 23 slight net for ML, 24 long serve from ML, 26, 36, 38 dead net for ML, 39, 49, 410, 510, 511
10, 11, 21, 22, 32, 34, 44, 46, 56, 58, 68, 611

ML is fortunate to have FZD and Tanaka.
WCQ: Jots down Tanaka on "Entity List".
Tanaka: What have I done?

WH eats into ML's era just as ML eats into FZD's era. Will FZD eat into WCQ's era? (Looking up WCQ's DOB...) Never mind.

Ma Zatoichi Long


WH: 坐山觀虎鬥 is so fun.











LJK: I'm here for the bronze.


LYJ: Only 2 CNT players at Asian Games. Podium finish secured.


FZD: My target is WCQ.




ML: I'm back.



ML: I surrender.




China: Mapping of East Asia complete.



A big thank you to ATTU and KTTA for geo-blocking this amazing event.

Ma Long was thoroughly prepared for the long serve to the backhand and middle today, I'm surprised to see LYJ attempt that much after the first couple of serves didn't work as he wanted in the 2nd and 3rd set, I was expecting a closer contest. The 2nd and 3rd set was a battle of wits, the backhand wide to the forehand came to ML's rescue a lot. An efficient way to open the game up away from LYJ's backhand strength.

Interesting insight from Tanaka on 3-2 WCQ. He expresses his gratitude to his physiotherapist 香川英信/KAGAWA Hidenobu for body maintenance and bench coach 李龍�£�/Li Longfei for game plan. On perfectly handling WCQ's shovel serve at 12:12 in G2, Tanaka says that in the MT match between Harimoto and WCQ, he learned that the shovel serve was mostly topspin, and while he was prepared, that turned out to be case in the match. He is glad that intel proved useful. Even though he wasn't as confident in the rallies, they were easier to handle than he imagined and that gave him confidence. (Interestingly, Togami felt the same about WCQ after WTTC 2021.)

■田中佑汰選手のコメント 　もちろん王楚欽選手を倒そうと思�£て試合に臨みましたが、本当に実現するとは思�£ていなか�£たので本当にうれしいです。 　いつも帯同していただいている香川（英信）さんに体のメンテナンスをしていただいて、李（龍�£�）コーチにベンチで作戦を立てていただいて、サポートしてくれるメンバーがいてすごい心強か�£たです。 　今の王楚欽との試合で一気にオリンピックに近づけたんじゃないかと思�£ているし、慢心せずに、次戦のアチ�£ンタ（インド）は以前負けている選手なので、頑張りたいと思います。明日は3試合あるので、ベスト4まで一気に駆け上がりたいと思�£ています。 （2ゲーム目のジュースで王楚欽のエースサービスの巻き込みサービスに見事に対応されましたが、どのような準備をしていたのですか？）今回、�£体戦で張本選手が王楚欽と対戦していて、巻き込みサービスはアップ系が多いと聞いていたので、準備はしていましたが、実際にアップ系が多か�£たと思います。その情報が役に立�£てよか�£たです。 （打ち合いでも互角以上でしたが）自信はそこまでありませんでしたが、思�£たよりもボールに対応できたことは自信になりました。
