Good Morning Britain making fun of little TT girl and calling TT "boring" sport
Piers Morgan trying to be funny and partially he does the job.
However these 2 minutes capture so many stereotypes about TT that I wanted to share it here:
- TT is done seriously just in China
- you need to start at the age of 2 (3 max) and you need to train 5 hours a day (that is unfortunately partially true
- general public sees TT as "boring" sport (or not sport at all)
For the last point: we all know that, it's just good to see it live as spontaneous reaction so it strikes us again into the face (at least it does to me) and we can think further if this is the end point or we can change this perception (without ruining the game by playing single game up to eleven or introducing 50mm balls).
Floor is yours (please balance the funny and joking comments with some new unheard insights
