That isn't my question,btw.
OK, EJ's, let's see if you know anything about TT History.

2. Who was the first player to confound everyone by using a sponge racket?

Clue: 1951,Vienna.

That's why I put the clue in, because everyone thinks it was Satoh, thanks largely to Marty Reisman. It wasn't.

Thanks. TT history is my specialism


Jim's question-actually there's three-Barna (who managed it twice), Szabados (who was first to do it) and Ferenc Sido (1953).


Back to equipment.

Which piece of equipment was the subject of a major rule change in 1936-7? What happened?

How about me placing a question that I don't have the answer to? Or, perhaps even 2?

Longest consecutive time as number 1 on the ITTF rank?

Longest consecutive time spent in the top 10 of the same rank?

I actually think that JO Waldner have spent a longer consecutive time in the top 10, seeing how he entered the list in -83 and stayed on it until -97, perhaps even longer, but I can't confirm this.

Deng Yaping might be right, but I must admit, I was thinking about the male ranking, female TT don't interest me as much.
