would a Ryu Seung Min survive in today's table tennis?

Have you seen a game from late 80s recently? They’re super boring to watch. The rallies last 3 shots mostly. And a lot of errors on serve return.
It’s just better now as a spectator sport.


Yes, there were many boring matches in the 80s, but on the other hand there were also many attractive matches, with different rubbers and styles against one another.
Personally, I’d prefer the old games. The average returns are more nowadays, but the style and rhythm are so monotonous.

Hi all,

First of all, I love the way that JPenholders play, RSM was one of my favorite table tennis players. But after this YOG, that games, that speed, I ask myself if players like Ma Lin(he wasn't jpen but he could put no pressure in the oponent using his RPB), RSM in the best of his shape would survive in today's table tennis, with the current ball and against the current playstyle that everyone plays now(close to the table).

Best Regards,
Eduardo
