In a recent video published by CCTV, Ma Long is imitating a tennis player as he messes around in the training hall with Zhang Jike. One can only presume Ma Long is most likely imitating Novak Djokoivic after the recent interview where Liu Guoliang said Zhang Jike and Novak Djokovic are very similar. As seen in this spectacular image below on how similar the two players are in terms of celebrations and actions on the court :)

Liu Guoliang commented to a reporter, "Both players are born with exceptional unruly personality and are very domineering"

Enjoy the video below! :)

What do you think? The control these two players have on the ball is exceptional!

Whoa! What a nice find Dan. Have never seen table tennis players do like this before :)

I think it's fun how the professionals imitate other professionals.

Yeah I love this! I think professionals need to do promotions like this more often! Its fantastic for the sport.

Fantastic! Haha, they have soo so so good feeling for the ball :D

You are so right Anders, they make this look so easy! I have practiced to swap sides in the training hall many times and can never perfect it no where near likes these two. I can imagine Ma Long and Zhang Jike can do this every time without fail :)

Yeah Dan, they make it look WAY to easy. I have tried it a few times with my coach, but it's hard hitting the other sider everytime.

Yeah I understand that :)... Ma Long is seen doing a tennis serve from the very start of the video,,, with the recent hype about Zhang Jike and his similarities with Novak Djokovic, I thought I would use Novak as a tennis player example for some fun. Anyways no worries :)
