Ah, once again. The Mukherjee's are not sisters, strictly speaking.

The human brain is used to taking shortcuts. That is why we have subconscious racism, etc. Stereotyping is a short cut to save cognitive energy that you may need to avoid getting eaten by a tiger who is lurking if you are too tired.
The Mukherjees come from the town of Naihati opposite the river to where I went to school. Table tennis is very popular in this area. As is the Mukherjee (mukhyopadhay) surname.

Sreeja needs to win more matches otherwise her ranking will just stagnate. it seems like she catches opponents by surprise but they get used to it with time.gunsnroses wrote: ↑Mon Mar 11, 2024 2:47 am "It was an exciting match and my first encounter with Akula.

Achanta Sharath Kamal upset world #13 Jorgic to make it to last 16 at Singapore Smash. Quite amazing that at 41 Sharath Kamal is still able to produce these kind of results.
Mukherjees lost 1-3 against world # 8 pair.

Re: WTT/WTT Youth Contender events
Yes, she needs but the way these women players are performing against these top Chinese players is making me feel there is small hope of something miraculous happening in Paris olympics from them.Sin Hombre wrote: ↑Tue Mar 12, 2024 8:50 pmSreeja needs to win more maches otherwise her ranking will just stagnate. it seems like she catches opponents by surprise but they get used to it with time.gunsnroses wrote: ↑Mon Mar 11, 2024 2:47 am "It was an exciting match and my first encounter with Akula.

Makes it even better that there are 4 singles and 1 doubles in olympics as against 5 singles at WC as Mukherjees are a very competitive pair against world's top pairs. Only thing is due to that Sreeja may have to be dropped to accommodate both.

Re: WTT/WTT Youth Contender events
Sharath Kamal will become the no. 1 Indian with this result overtaking Harmeet Desai. He will move closer to entering top 50 in the world rankings.
In the Round of 16, he will meet Omar Assar (EGY,22)

Re: WTT/WTT Youth Contender events
And Shararth Kamal beats Omar again in straight games to reach QF. He is the first Indian to reach QF of this level event I think and he will reenter top 50 in singles rankings again with this.

Sharath Kamal lost to Felix Lebrun (FRA,6) 1-4 in the QF. Still one of the best runs by Sharath Kamal after some time.

Re: WTT/WTT Youth Contender events
Was this a Grand Slam type of event that it made such a huge difference in ranking?
