Lin Yun-Ju is the well deserved winner. Yet again and again he has not exhibited the kind of consistency and control we expect from a first-rate player of the sport. Like here in the last game, even though he won the game and match in the end by closing it out at 11-9, when at 10-7, he lost the following two points to Hugo due to unforced errors, and would have lost the game and match if he made just one or two more of same. He also barely won in almost the same manner last match. I am not sure if he has enough form to beat China's Lin Shidong, his next opponent, if he remains unable to improve his consistency, avoid most unforced errors and play at his best level like he did last year in Frankfurt. Not withstanding what I wrote, I wish his best in his match against Lin Shidong.
Yes, commentators like this are useless. I sometimes just turn the sound off. As an active mid-level player I want to learn from the matches and hear about the shot and spin selection, ball placement, how they stand and move, why some shot succeed and some not (e.g. that they didn't make the necessary half step forward and instead of it reached to the ball), etc.
The male commentator is frankly the worse and he always seems to get commentating gigs. Just says talks about how monumental a game is and how exceptionally skilled the players are, he literally never talks about anything that's happening in the game. They need to find ex-pros that can be English commentators so we can hear about strategy and shot selections.
@ I find their commentary obnoxious. You’re right, it’s the same praise of the players and event every single time. Please WTT I’m begging you to find better commentators or ask me to do it.
How many people have noticed Hugo’s addition to his serve. He is now gripping the ball between his finger tips and the base of his thumb. This trick of course adds additional control for his high toss strike the ball behind his head, where the receiver can’t see it serve
This is really man's match, with respect to opponent. Without loud noises, opposite Moregard-Lebrun 😂. Lin Yun-Ju so improved forehand and first-finishing backhand.
Of the Americans he is the number one there is no doubt when we talking about the world he is top 5 during 5 years it’s too hard when you need to win of the asiatic army alone
hugo needs to find a Chinese coach or Japanese one. He improved a lot recently, just see how he beats all Korean players. But still has space to improve.
Korean players these days are second tier players. The Chinese play in a league of their own and then comes the Europeans represented by Felix Lebrun and Truls Moregard.
@@containternet9290 well, Hugo can beat most of the Chinese players. He beat Lin sidong and Xiang pen in 2023. He beat fzd in incheon but that probably was due to fzd's injury.
@@MrCooperscoopers Nah, Hugo hasn't won any title against the Chinese ever. In unimportant matches the Chinese may lose one or two for any player, WCQ recently lost to a 14 yeard old kid but when push comes to shove the Chinese take it all.
@@containternet9290 I hate this mentality, people always talk about Chinese players achievements as a whole but then compare individual players to that group's achievements. Sure Chinese players usually win events because they have so many good players but no Chinese player has been anywhere close to as dominant as Ma Long as an individual player and none of the current Chinese players look like they will be get close to that dominance in the near future.
Hugo joga muito, tem muito potencial e tinha tudo para ganhar esse jogo porém, está com uma margem de erro muito grande. Ele perde diversos pontos tentando fazer ataques premeditados o que acaba custando muito a ele no final do jogo. Raramente consigo assistir uma partida com ele marcando mais de 3 pontos de vantagem... Acho que ele precisa de um novo treinador.
Treinador dele é um lixo, até hoje não adicionou bloqueio no jogo dele, e una recepção curta. Ele precisa parar de atacar igual um psicopata a todo momento.
hugo is a great player, but no 7 in the world is a hit overrated. I would say is he is definitely top 15. Lin on the other hand is a player around top 5-10 which he is a bit underrated at this point in time.
Your analisys is very superficial. Calderano is a player more consistent than Lin and his ranking is acordding to his results in the tournaments. It’s no use Lin beat 4 times Calderano but lose 4 times for Felix Lebrun or Lin beat 4 times Calderano but lose 4 times for Lim Jong-Hoon. This is not consistency. Calderano has record better against various players than Lin and that's why he stay well in the ranking .
@ I agree Hugo has more consistency. But keep in mind Hugo is basically unbeatable in Pan-American Championships and he always has 500 ranking points, which gives him a big boost in rankings, similar boosts show in players like Quadri Aruna, where he gets his 500 points annually. Meanwhile a win in Asian Championships only gets you 500, but it’s much more harder to win one. That’s why there will inherently be a boost for the best players in Africa and Pan America because they have weaker opponents. Nevertheless, Hugo definitely is an extraordinary player, I am just saying his rankings is overrated a little bit.
Even IF you do take the 500 hundred pan america points from Calderano, this points would be replaced by the 175 from the saudi smash(which is the 9th best result, and the best 8 results are the ones that count for Table Tennis ranking), which would still leave him at the number 8 spot of the world ranking. Not only that, but he hasn't left the top 10 for the past 7 Years!! What about Lin Yun Ju??
Hugo can apply pressure on some players but when he tries it against other playes like Lyn and they absorbe he now comes under his own pressure. In the last set he dhould hsve been playing for control indtesd he eent for winners giving lin the opportunity to out manuvour him made yoo much mistake with a player who is good at not to making much .
Hugo is really fantastic player

His backhand flicks looked so slow this match, surely Lin Shidong smokes him in the backhand if he plays like that.
4 x 0 to Lin shidong
no such thing as unforced errors
Have these commentators ever played table tennis before? Why don’t they talk about technique and shot selection?
For real. They are literally saying nothing.
Yes, commentators like this are useless. I sometimes just turn the sound off. As an active mid-level player I want to learn from the matches and hear about the shot and spin selection, ball placement, how they stand and move, why some shot succeed and some not (e.g. that they didn't make the necessary half step forward and instead of it reached to the ball), etc.
How about the choice of metaphors: “Shakespeare couldn’t write it” )))

Yes we have
It's called an illegal serve. No hiding allowed.
Отличный матч! Крутой теннис! Оба молодцы!

Lin Y J is not a silent but humble assassin since now. Both players are outstanding
HUGO is the GOAT. HES SO CONFIDENT!!! NO EMOTIONS!!! FANTASTIC PLAYER!!!
hugo is probably americas' GOAT
Of the Americans he is the number one there is no doubt when we talking about the world he is top 5 during 5 years it’s too hard when you need to win of the asiatic army alone
33:43 !!!
Hugo Calderano ❤
its a shame they didnt have guys like Adam commentate all the games... he adds so much more to the game, he knows players so well and their traits.
another great match. table tennis is in a very good spot at the moment. key for me is all the people outside china playing awsome.
Where is Adam Bobrow 😕
Mano, que partida.
😳 to Dear 🏓 昀儒～💗✨

Lyj going 3/3 in deciders in this tournament. Bet.
what a nice camera angle @4:30

I have been saying that for a long time. He needs a good coach, Chinese or Japanese. But I guess he doesn't read YT comments.

Depois das olimpíadas caiu demais.
@@cloudao14 Hugo só joga no ataque, quando está em desvantagem ele raramente converte. Moregard mostrou o ponto fraco dele, a direita curta.

@@Charliehuangmagic 500 points in 4020. Ok, continental tour helps but it is not the best explanation.
@@Charliehuangmagic 99% of the tournaments Hugo plays are the prime tournaments. Continental tournaments represents almost nothing in his ranking.

A pink player rsrs
Hugo played well, but just came up short
Hugo can apply pressure on some players but when he tries it against other playes like Lyn and they absorbe he now comes under his own pressure. In the last set he dhould hsve been playing for control indtesd he eent for winners giving lin the opportunity to out manuvour him made yoo much mistake with a player who is good at not to making much .
Hugo is better.
Hugo deserved the win 😢
The better player deserves the win, and in this match its Lin
@@liiou4445 yeah I know, but great effort by Hugo in chasing the comeback, it wouldve been a massive turnaround
Hugo is a big loser for real
yeah, wait till you are as good as he is.
Who's the biggest loser? The Olympics semifinalist who's at the top 10 of a worldwide sport or a youtube rando? I'll let you take a guess.
Кальдерано красавчик , болею за него .
