Ask Lin YJ who surprised XX with a deep fast straight line serve which impressed the hell out of everybody but provoked Xu Xin to go on to win the next 4 points and the deuce from a 3 point deficit, and then the whole match.

Xu Xin returns to world number one. Table tennis world needs him. His playing style is so sexy. I am so surprising because of his modern backhand performance in this match. May be, it is one of the first matchs, in which he really uses something, which is worthly called STABLE modern penholder backhand techniques, in rallies, even in rallies far from the table. His very noticeable improvement of backhand from his previous final match vs Liu Dingshuo in Australian Open 2018.

It's so refreshing to see XX change his mindset and play reasonably more aggressive. I said reasonably because he's done it with calculated risks. Remember those two crucial long serves into the backhand corner. He also uses his backhand more naturally. No more disappointed face when he misses a backhand counter, and no more unnecessary steparounds. This actually saves him energy for the big shots when the time comes. Then I know he's got great confidence. And that "Come on" outburst after tough points seems to relieve him as well. These two trophies will surely boost XX's confidence to compete for 2020, but a rivalry with ML and FZD would be the last test.

Not sure why Kenta.M kept feeding Xu.X's forehand, on average it looked like 70% of those feeds lost him the point as Xu.X just worked the feed back with an attack or a long push to Kenta.M's backhand and then went into auto touch shot mode until a kill shot was presented. Great to see Kenya.M back on form and doing his magic lob and smack down special we know him for, fantastic. These new balls seem to be bringing back style play and cooling down pure power play.
@danielmltu6 жыл бұрын
I thought they had the opposite effect because of more speed + less spin + larger area.
@tk1ngatk1nga6 жыл бұрын
Speed is useless without spin in table tennis unless you use short pips or mostly punch, the spin brings the ball down, so with that in mind, a ball which cannot spin as much as the previous generation of balls will not be able to be loaded with as much speed as the spin is not there to bring it down. So, the close to the table players and defenders now have a slightly slower ball to deal with and the power loopers can't finish off the point as before and will now have to deal with the opponents who are able to use their speed and spin against them by playing close to the table and driving power loopers away from the table at nasty angles too.
@danielmltu6 жыл бұрын
I see your point. I was implying that people may favor flat balls (punch) more now. I guess it isn't the case.
@tk1ngatk1nga6 жыл бұрын
xEnder, yes, you have a point there, short pimples which have a flatter trajectory could take advantage of these new balls, which in theory would be a pain for loopers as they would get even less spin to work with and very direct balls.
