Why is Olympic table tennis respected in Asia but not so much in the U.S.?

“There’s a lot of misconceptions that we’re not true Americans. I’ve experienced a lot of comments from people or even on social media, where people were like, ‘Of course, the U.S. imported these people from China,’” Zhang said. “They don’t understand we were born here. We were raised here. We grew up here. We’re just as American as any other athlete on the team.”

Pin Trading getting very popular especially from Tokyo Olympic.
Ma Long has ever had an interview after the Hangzhou Asia Game(2023), said, he felt embarrassed to do the pin trading with others, and others seem also embarrassed to talk to him about the pin trading...so he has never made any pin trading...

Yesterday CM, WMY, WYD met ML after they got some pins from the journalist of CMG, ML asked them where they got these pins, then he just did nothing...

after the fans post it, they crowd into the social media, ask the journalists, the volunteers in Paris, if they can give ML some pins without asking.....Today, there's a very kind journalist posting that he've made it.

THE ONLY CHASTE SOUL AMONGST THE ROBBERS.
The team of crooks. Is the crookiness inborn into all Chinese olympians? Not at all. Ma Long is known to use standard Hurricane rubber as currently approved by ITTF, namely blue sponge 39 hrd degree. Hats off for Ma Long ! Shame on Chinese cheaters.

THE CHASTE ONE AMONGST THE ROBBERS.
The team of crooks. Is the crookiness inborn to all Chinese olympians? Not at all. Ma Long is known to use standard Huricane rubber as approved by ITTF, namely blue sponge 39 hrd degree. Hats off for Ma Long ! Shame on Chinese cheaters.

I really don't understand it. ML will officially present as the player on Aug.5th when Men's Team Round of 16, if you think he will cheat on the rubber, pls check him carefully then. If he proved to use an “ illegal” rubber, not only ML, the whole Olympic umpire team is clown, you will be very reasonable to express your anger as above...But why now, why here? without any evidence, without any respect?

This should be made into a mural somewhere.

The man, the legend, the dictator, the GOAT!

I realized that I misunderstood you, you were not making nonsense of ML's, which not let me feel better, not at all, you were messing around the rest of all. Anyway I checked the topic raised on 2018 where I could totally figure out why you are used to yelling like this.

Ma Long uses Hurricane 3 42 degree and of course boosted as hell.
Every pro player who uses h3 always boost it.

They can hardly cancel the opening for a bit of rain… also the team tournament is only next week so he can recover from his adventure on the Seine.

НЕ ТАК СТРАШЕН ЧОРТ ...

Рулонный настил на полах оказалса не такой уж мрачный как предполагалось ранее. Согласно колорометрических измерений цвет настила соответствует оттенку серого цвета DimGrey #696969

Зрительный контраст с крышкой стола вполне удовлетворительный. Потом узнаю подробнее у знакомого судьи.

NOT SO BAD DEVIL AS DESCRIBED.
An actual colour of the flooring mat is not pure black. According to colorimetric analises we can see a tint of grey named DimGrey #696969, and it gives you a sufficient contrast against the table topboard.

Simple answer: The US is racist.... long history of racism in the US even before slavery.

Lovely to pay for PeacockTV then get to watch in beautiful 360p. Also because it's split screen with 3 games going on at the same time, it's more like 90p!

Looks like 1080p to me. Not ideal 3 table format, but my TV has a Live zoom feature to make it easier to focus in on one match. You can also do the same on a laptop using the Screen Magnifier app.
