100% wrong. You don't know anything about table tennis so you shouldn't talk about it. The Chinese guy wasn't in control of many points at all. He was in control of about 2 points in total. Tim had approx 26 unforced errors and the Chinese guy had 4 clear winners to Tim's approx 2 winners. Nobody had "control" of this match at all. It was just a match full of unforced errors. Nothing more, nothing less.
@@Timcudjoe He wasn't strong at all Tim. You made 26 unforced errors. There is a big difference between "missing a shot" and an "unforced error". Tighten up your game just a bit and you beat this guy 11-4, 11-5
Tim. Two major mistakes with your strategy stand out. 1) You push way too many serves that are quite attackable. You do this because you are afraid. You're afraid of losing and are way too attached to the results. This "coach" who is chirping in the backround should be point this out if he knew anything. You look like you have had some first ball attack training yet throw it out the window with all that pushing. You should be ashamed to the point that you resign yourself to never push a serve again. (except for the super short spinny serves we get). 2) Too emotional. Your grimacing every time you make a mistake is due to the fact that you're taking the results, (instead of the process itself).....way too seriously. Every grimace has a compounding affect and works against you which makes you tense and less creative. Being carefree is the way to go without being suicidal. Bonus observation: You're not good enough to be using that rubber. Get something a little bit less speedy until you can learn to easily block attacks and gently place anywhere. You're trying to counter attack drives that should be soft blocks forcing way too many errors.
@@chimyshark Tim doesn't know me at all. I trained for years and am 100% guilty of everything I said about his game. I simply wrote what I told myself about my own game when I saw myself on video. The biggest thing is to never, ever push a serve that goes long when you can attack. It's literally the worst habit to have. It's a crying shame when we train to loop drive those in practice yet don't do it in a tournament. Better to lose 11-0 while going for the proper serve return then to win 11-8 by having pushed your way through the game waiting for the other side to make errors.
@ that’s not true. This is the finals, you’re trying to win, not get better. If it’s a practice match and you’re just trying to improve, then yeah go try new techniques and lose 0-11, but this was the finals, I don’t think you understand that. Anyway, I think you were overly critical for someone you don’t even know, if it really were for your own benefit, you could have easily written that in your own training journal instead of criticize someone else.
Thanks for sharing Tim! Nice match
Very solid opponent. Good job though.
Regards to the staunch blocker
good job getting into the finals, that guy was just way better than you. he was in control of pretty much every point.
Yea - tried my best getting to it. He was too strong well played to him.
