Had a discussion with friends how much do professional table tennis players make a year.
Although I am not sure if I remember correctly and if the numbers are true, I heard somewhere that MaLong in China Super League makes about 250000USD. Also prize money from tournaments (it was a discussion...
I was wondering if anyone knows anything about where the top players train.
For example players like Ovtcharov and Mizutani play in the champions league but then they also play in T2 and take part in various international competitions.
So do Top players just train wherever they happen to be...
COWARDS!
A decision made from FEAR not strength!

With 36 year old Timo Boll moving back up into the world top 5 in the latest ranking list and Samsonov at 41 still hovering around top ten, I was wondering what age table tennis players reach their peak and how long they can maintain it? It seems like non-Chinese players normally play at a very...
All chinese top stars besides Ma Long and Ding Ning are in the entries list for german open!

I am 24 now but I still remember that as a junior growing up playing in England there were so many times where I would beat senior players and they couldn't handle it and would started whining and complaining, coming up with every excuse under the sun as to why they lost. I very rarely got...
This thread is my homage to Zhang Yining, one of my favorite players of all time (and I was reminded of it by a thread at MyTT where people are discussing who they thing the GOAT is among women players). In a discussion like that it is hard to argue against Deng Yaping but my favorite is Zhang...

Two of the better Chinese players currently competing in the USA had a finals showdown today at my club. Much closer than I thought it would be as Jun Han won 3-0 last time. Will be interesting to see if he can make the final in next week's Westchester tournament to play against Bojan Tokic, I'd...
I just went to a table tennis club for the first time...
There were a lot of players with different styles.
I got destroyed and had lots of fun...
My Question is how do you deal with players when you play them for the first time or when you don't know much about them yet?
I find my self...

I have seen many video about chinese table tennis (trials, super league and more), but when i'm focus on their equipement, I always see the Wave Drive 7, he has few players playing with other shoes (Wave Medal ou Drive A). And what about their equipement, because I never seen ZJK with Butterfly...

In this video made by ITTF, some players have very cool logos. Are the logos real designs from their sponsors? Have you seen them wearing clothes with their own logos?
