The Real Story Behind My Doha Matches | VLOG

[@dariogutierrez6716]

What channels like these give us is the insight, that even a 'normal' professional really gives the sport 100% of their time and effort. Puts weight into what being a pro means.

Sorry about your audio issues. It happens to everyone. Good recovery though! Also, saying you are "not the most talented player" I thnk you forget how good you really are! I think most of us watching could only dream of being as good as you. Your hard work a dedication to the sport is great to watch. Personally, I am super excited to see you win and I am always cheering for you but I am more interested in your journey. Thank you for inviting us along!!!

[@IbaDiaw]

Hi, Unfortunately I’m not good enough to participate in such a strong tournament 😅 thank you for the invitation 🙏

[@vaijayantimala6810]

[@IbaDiaw]

Thank you ✌️

[@maelsalmon9898]

Se genre de vidéo est super 👍

[@THESUPERRONALD]

Great Vlog again! Good luck with the upcoming tournament and the improvements you want to make. Regarding your open honesty about yourself: It is okay if you're not the best player in the world now. I believe for us as fans, we know you will be often enough the underdog in a match. This makes watching your journey more exciting and a win more rewarding and beautiful. Keep doing your thing and we wish you all the best! Let's go Iba Diaw!

[@IbaDiaw]

Thank you 🙌🙏

[@Dxma-os5ln]

Amazing vlog, super high quality. Wanted to get your insights on this, third game against Samuel walker, you were 8-5 down. Do you think sams coach lost him the game by not calling a time out, watching that live felt super weird for me that no time out was called

[@maelsalmon9898]

Continue comme ça mec 😎

[@EricHerrerosTT]

really nice video, congrats from spain

[@IbaDiaw]

Thank you 🙏

[@mkisyov]

That specific training after the win is quite interesting. I'm curious to know what exactly you were trying to correct, could you share more details of that, please?

[@IbaDiaw]

First loop after my short receive on a lateral service 🤯🤯

[@backspacer92]

The thumbnail made me worry you are quitting 🙈 you have had tough luck with Asian players, but don't forget how close you were to beating Alexis or Hugo. Your level is there. Will you play more doubles this year? (I guess you have to pay another fee for doubles?)

[@IbaDiaw]

Haha yeah I’m quitting you 😬🥲

[@backspacer92]

@@IbaDiaw I didn't say anything 🙊 side note, always enjoy seeing Mehdi in your VLOGs. I'm sure you are friends with a lot of players on the tour. You could talk about how you have come to know each other.

[@ДваАбрикоса]

At 2:0 I was ready to close KZbin too, well done, keep it up! By the way, maybe you can make a video about your overlays and blade?

[@IbaDiaw]

🤣🤣

[@vaijayantimala6810]

you lost againts manush shah and snehit from our country i have met them both of them no problem good match

[@achraf9946]

Great Improvements Bro 💪💪💪💪

[@IbaDiaw]

Thanks 🙏

[@TTDPocketRocket]

What blade and rubbers do you use?

[@IbaDiaw]

Synteliac VCI 🏓

[@antoinenijhuis450]

Hey Iba, I have a question regarding professional tabletennis. I am a bit on the bulkier side, and I noticed in your videos that you are also a bit more chunky (no offense). Would you say bodyweight has an important role in table tennis? Love your videos, greetings!

[@joaoporto4713]

How long time you change your rubbers?

[@IbaDiaw]

Every week !!

[@kyokusanagi239]

One doubt. Who is tour partner that was helping you with the mistajes correction post-match? Is he tour coach in your club, National team coach or personal coach?

[@IbaDiaw]

It’s Lilian Bardet, he’s French National team player

[@kyokusanagi239]

OMG, that match with Sam was close. Don't know How he misses to balls in the end. Well, maybe you were more well prepared and this was the Lucky of the Champion.

[@IbaDiaw]

💪🏾💪🏾

[@djsw5355]
