Best server in the world 2014

paellota · Mar 3, 2014

Hi. Who do you think is the best server in the world ?

I'd say zhang Jike, Ovtcharov, Wang Hao, Xu Xin... But not really sure.

Samsonov and Schlager by a country mile.

ma lin, werner schalager, and kenta masudaira

depends, most of spin definitely Ma Lin. In variation and difficulty Ma Long because there is no way for random players to read his serve, its just the best.

What about mizutani? Ma Lin has a great serve though

xVill · Mar 4, 2014

Im sorry but Vladi has one of the most plain looking serves I have ever seen. Ma Long has the best serve by far. it's almost impossible to read it unless you have trained countless hours with him...

Ma Lin has been retired...
for retired player: LIU GUO LIANG
for active player: Zhang Jike

I'll go with Ma Long coz of his ultimate variation...

if we talk about proffesional players I think Kenta is very good lastly. He developed traditional serves as well which helps him make a lot of points. Of course Ovtcharov is great as well. Chinese players I think Wang Hao is the best.

Wang Hao serves are illegal in my opinion, throws the ball backwards towards his body and masks the contact of the ball with his shoulder. Schlager also throws the ball backwards toward his body. Ma Long, in my opinion, as already mentioned has great variation.

Please define "best server"

Its not like Tennis where you can measure by an Ace.

If the serve is illegal or not, the only person that can say it is the referee. Most of the players besides Samsonov use their body of hand movement to hide the ball, especially Xu Xin, but this is another topic. That is why I would suggest to serve only with BH side.

Zhang Jike and Ma Long have the best serves but Ma Long is slightly better at serving.

Ma Long also hides his serves with his head

Best serve or most effective serve that they use to give them an opportunity to open up and get a good kill on the ball?
