It’s episode 14 of the TTDCast, brought to you from the China Smash!! 🇨🇳🎙️
Dan, Tom and Joe are joined by one of the greatest players of his generation, recent head coach and mastermind behind Sweden’s resurgence back to a major force in world table tennis! It’s Jörgen Persson 🏓
Jörgen gives us some great stories from his playing days, where he was a multiple time world champion across Teams and Singles. How he left the game at the top, finishing 4th in both the Athens and Beijing Olympics, before then transitioning into coaching the national team. Which saw a massive reinvigoration of the men’s Swedish team, bringing an avalanche of medals in Teams, singles and doubles across the world championships and Olympics.
Jörgen recalls his perspective on that epic semi final team match in Paris against Japan. And how Truls managed to pull off the upset of the games by beating Wang Chuqin. It’s a great chat and we’re sure you’ll love listening to Jörgen as much as we did….
