@DaFaiGai Because there has been a lot of talk about Michael Tran so I though it would be nice to have other folks see who this young kid is. He played much better in the U10. In the other events, I think he was intimidated a bit. Problem I see is that he lives in Minnesota which is not necessarily a TT mecca. The U10 champ Victor Liu from the Bay Area has dedicated coaches. Runner up Derek Nie from MD gets a lot of practice too.
@DaFaiGai From the U10 finals, one can see Michael Tran needs a lot of catching up to do to even come close to either Victor or Derek. Any parent with U10 boy will have to evaluate their son playing level and what they have to do to come close to Victor or Derek if they saw the U10 final.
Um, why'd you upload this? LOL.
