This is the top 10 of your favourite players, right? I might have missunderstood the post, I though they asked for the top 10 best players, but reading everyones posts it seems like its top 10 favourite.

[TenPercentWinRate]

1. He Zhiwen
2-5. Every other short pips professional player
6-9. Every other penhold professional player
10. Ma Long

 

[tabaradumitru]

10. Timo Boll - humble, unique style of lifting the ball with his small movements.
9. Simon Gauzy - Pure art/trick shots
8. Vladislav Ursu - because he is from my country and is getting better and better
7. Lin Yun-Ju - Humble, not noisy, nice service and backhand flicks
6. Wang Chuqin - Forehand
5. Ma Long - Most complete in all aspects
4. Ryu Seung-min - Footwork, risky forehand shots
3. Ma Lin - I like the way he serves and attacks
2. Xu Xin - Show man and side spin
1. Fan Zhendong - For his backhand

2) Xu Xin
3) Yoshida (Konishi) Kaii
4) Ma Lin
5) Ri Chol Guk
6) Lee Jung Woo
7) Wang Liqin
8) Ichiro Ogimura
9) Ma Long
10) Chiang Peng Lung

Womens:
1) Yang Young-Ja
2) Pak Yung-Sun
3) Hyun Jung-Hwa
4) Moon Hyun-Jung
5) Lee Eunhee
6) Seok Eunmi
7) Ri Myong Sun
8) Hitomi Sato
