Fan Zhendong used to play with Stiga Infinity VPS V, some blue sponge DHS rubber on forehand and Calibra Tour M on backhand. But I'm not sure if he also used an Infinity VPS V at the German Open.

Quoting myself from the thread about the World Junior Championship 2012. :) I love his technique and spirit so I didn't mind him beating Ovtcharov in the final. Actually I'm already glad that it wasn't a Chinese final again because those matches do get pretty boring by now and I hope the same...

Higher quality version of Ma Long - Zhang Jike - Austrian Open 2011: Also for Ma Long - Bojan Tokic - WTTC 2011:

Very nice. HD slow motion shots are the best. :) Just one remark, why no screen-filling (black borders around the video)?

Quarter finals starting now: Ai Fukuhara vs Elizabeta Samara Sheng Dandan vs Hu Limei Li Jiao vs Wen Jia Jeon Jihee vs Seo Hyowon Bastian Steger vs Zhou Yu Chuang Chih-Yuan vs Kaii Yoshida Liang Jingkun vs Kenta Matsudaira Ruwen Filus vs Fan Zhendong

Good point, however I think the East Asian Games have een taken into account since those results explain Koki Niwa's drop (lost against Kim Hyok Bong) and the small jump of Wu Yang.

The ITTF has updated the rankings again! The new rankings were published on November 5, 2013. According to ITTF's calendar, the next release will be December 5, 2013. --- Dmitrij Ovtcharov passes Timo Boll --- Out of form Timo skips European Championships and loses against Dima at the Men's...

Amazing match! Check out 8:22!

For London 2012: The top 28 players of the world ranking qualified immediately, 2 max per country for the singles event. They used the world ranking of May, 2011 for this, which is the ranking that was updated directly after the 2011 WTTC. Wang Hao and Zhang Jike were ranked #1 and #3 and thus...

Nice to see him do those dropshots when you've backed off from the table. :) How does he compete on the national level? Are there events/rankings for boys of his age in England?

Many great shots in this video, all are 2013:

Great final game between Freitas and Yang Zi.. Glad Freitas could still win it in the end.

There is no English version. I've read it and it's a nice book with some interesting facts and insights about table tennis in China, the Chinese team and Timo Boll himself. However you'll have to be able to read German. PlasmaLight has written an English summary of the book here.

I think he's using a device that measures in what degree his bat is either flat/equal or for example dome-shaped. It's also one of the things that blades get tested on before matches.

Gionis reaches the semifinals by beating Apolonia... He has to play Samsonov now, who he beat earlier in the team event.
