"TT world has been weakest since 2015".
A WR#5 just beat WR#1,4 and 2. So boring.
Ya, go bang your head in the link below. Anyone who hasn't lived through the era when World Championships meant something won't be able to tell.

至于马龙的历史地位，很可惜，
在现在连世乒赛都不复存在的年代，已经没有为他提供辉煌的舞台了。
更不用说他现在的对手，40岁的波尔，15岁的张本。。。
连个证道的垫脚石都找不到。
另外马龙的一个减分项，
他是顺序接班，等年长的王皓，甚至乱入的张继科，
都退出以后，才论资排辈成为世界第一人的。
As for ML's historical status, it's a shame.
In a time when the WTTC doesn't exist anymore, he lacks the platform on which to shine.
Not to mention his current opponents, 40-year-old Boll, 15-year-old Harimoto...
Not even a stepping stone to ascendancy could be found.
Another minus for ML.
He's a next-in-line successor, waiting for the senior WH, and even the barged-in ZJK
to both recede, and only then, by his seniority, did he become the World No 1.
