I think it's all down to mindset from a young age and dedication. If one devotes their whole life to table tennis from a young age, with great surroundings such as great coaches, training facilities, competitions training partners and more they can go very far.
I have thought about this so often, are top players talented, were they born with predisposed qualities. I think it all comes down to the practice. Perhaps the worlds very best like Waldner, Wang Liqin etc, they may have perhaps very good vision, co-ordination etc, but they could have developed these qualities from the amount of hours they practised.
Lets take a reasonable good local league player for example. He/she probably plays one match a week and may have 1 or 2 practice sessions in that week (most likely there practice session will be for around 45 minutes followed by some games). Now lets take a player who trains full time in comparison. At times the full time player would accumulate the amount of practice that league player do in 1 week, just in 1 days training.
