    Timo Boll the King.
    No wonder he is considered a tabletennis star even in China.
    When even the Chinese respect a foreigner in one of their national sports, you know that man in a beast.

      At least SOMEONE who treats the man the way he should be treated. Just because he's no soccer star barely anyone in Germany knows him and his outstanding career. It's such a shame. :(
      When he carried the german flag into the Maracana stadium at the Rio opening ceremony, he looked like an overjoyed child, I was so happy for him. He's a very nice person and just an amazing athlete with a long and successfull career. He did what so many people thought was impossible: challenge the Chinese and the Chinese love him for doing so. Tabletennis needs so much more recognition.

    Timo Boll has fought generations of Chinese players, from Kong Linghui, to Liu Guoliang, Ma Lin, Wang Liqin, Wang Hao, Zhang Jike, Ma Long and Fan Zhendong. Kong and Liu are coaches. ML, WH and WLQ have retired. But Timo Boll is still fighting. Yes, Chinese won most of the important titles, but with Timo Boll competing, there was always suspense.
    The real question is where is the next Timo Boll?

      He told that he loves to be almost not recognised and spotted in germany, while beeing an absolute super star in a diffrent country, china.
      Btw how is he doing right now?
      Ive watched the world list and he is on 33 now :(
      I guess his worst position since whenever he was 33 last time?
      I always hope that he can play on and still win something. I guess aslong he has fun with it, he will keep on playing.
      Unfortunately he cant beat age.
      Is just crazy how long this man stayed on the top of the game.

    • @gdgeosef1367
      @gdgeosef1367 Год назад

      @@user-ir8er1bh4q as of now he is maintaining his focus on recovering from a shoulder injury which made him not compete for the time being ( since the end of february i think ) + missing the wttc 2023 that was held pretty recently, that's why his world ranking is 33 my friend.
      Nevertheless he said that he would prepare very well for the 2024 olympics in paris, so i guess timo boll's era isn't over yet.

    When they play the ball it always looks like there is some magic force that pushes the ball onto the other side of table (i guess it's spin + magnus effect) that looks so awesome how it drops even at the highest speeds.

  • @TheZorboidOrbb
    @TheZorboidOrbb 8 лет назад +38

    Was it 2005 or 2007 when he beat Chinese top 3 in QF, SF and Finals? He completely wrecked Chinese that year. I think, after Waldner, Timo is the only other player that Chinese saw as a threat.

    • @LeTDDswag
      @LeTDDswag  8 лет назад +7

      It was in 2005 he beat WLQ, Ma Lin and Wang Hao in a row, and in 2002 he also beat Kong Linghui in the final, yeah that was awesome, too bad he didn't manage to repeat that performance at the WTTC

    • @TheZorboidOrbb
      @TheZorboidOrbb 8 лет назад +1

      Yup... Timo in his prime was a nightmare.. He is probably at his 80% right now. At his level, its so hard to keep up fitness and creativity after 30.

    • @LeTDDswag
      @LeTDDswag  8 лет назад +4

      Yeah but it depends, I think he was still very consistant in early 2010's (like in 2011-12, it was a great period for him, he went in WTTC semis and was WR #1) because he earned a lot of experience and that made him stronger even if he was not as good physically, I mean if you look at Ma Lin for example, he was clearly finished past his thirties

      That is the reality in every single sport. However it's just pure probability. How many Chinese people live across the globe? No wonder you can easily pick one or two, who are good at something. Germans are very good at many sports, not only table tennis, although the population is much smaller. This is remarkable and related to money as well. When country has money, they can pick up talents earlier and invest in their training.

    If you really like Boll, just say things about Boll. Why does Boll have to "beat" Chinese......
