I think the chinese are better because they are better than everybody else at keeping the ball on the table in an agressive way. You never see the chinese push the ball more than 2 times back to each other, they attack right away....
I think, beside technique (attack-and-attack), almost meditative desire to win is essential for player - along with readiness to lose. A kind of bushido. There nerves of steel is needs and motions without consciousness. - The more the better.
to me...it because TT is the sport #1 in China...it s like football in europe...they have a lot of players, they have the coaches, TT is a tradition for them...however new world #1 is german !
Timo Boll is only nr.1 because the chinese haven't been in enough ITTF tournaments to earn points. The amount of people playing and the intense training is why china is the best.
Chinese they have a great Coach Liu Guoliang Serving Demonstration, the important thing is the Coach, if anyone have a coach he will feel that, coz the coach remember you about every thing coz u r in the match maybe nerves and he also keep u going up.
