NextLevel wrote: Kindof99, I don't know what you feel about table tennis but when I watch the top Chinese players in the top 4, I feel that any of them can best the other on any given day. We can be 95% certain that FZD will play the World Cup anyway. And no one has two Olympic golds so winning one at 23 is more than special.

I agree. Also, great players like Ma Long, Xu Xin and before Wang Hao or Wang Liqin never had a gold medal in Olympic games. That's show how hard it is to get one and if you only get one gold medal, you must feel very very happy regardless of the age.

Feng Tianwei Won! Finally her form is back with vengeance.

FZD beat XX in several domestic events, but lost to XX in Asian games and Asian cup.  Hopefully FZD does not become the next ML, who seemed to be very promising at the very young age, but did not really do well in the big world event. By the way, I am a FZD fan.

Ma Long is one of the greatest players of all time, whose main sin is to have never won a WTTC. Keep some perspective.

I would like to see how Koki Niwa won against Xu Xin but I couldn't find any video of that match.

He went swinging on nothing-balls and they kept going in. Mizutani thought that was luck and waited for luck to run out but when he figured he wont survive to see it he started swinging himself, but not with same succcess.

Do well in big world event? Ma Long has had a great career so far, and its far from over. Wang Hao's had his number in 3 consecutive World Championships, otherwise he has arguably been one of the best 3 players in the world for most of his time on the CNT.

what??
ML can't be best 3 players because of Wang Hao??
Anyone can be the world best player base on this logic...

What?  My opinion: Ma Long has been at least one of the 3 best players in the world for most of his time on the CNT. -and- just because he lost to Wang Hao in the last 3 World Championships, doesn't mean he "did not really do well in the big world event"........ Make sense?

no. doesn't Make sense..
ML had big world event (single) 9 times, only get one world cup. you think he is doing well??
Yes..if he is a USA national team member..but not for CNT because most of them can do this for 9 times..
Current result shows he did not do well in the big world event....and must be some reasons for that, can't blame you have no luck for 9 times.

I know Ma Long at least played 2007, 2009, 2011, and 2013 WTTC singles. Not sure about 2005. Prolly not. He made it to the semis in 09, 11 and 13.

Most people count the WC as a big world event, albeit less important than the OG and WTTC by quite a bit. He at least played 2008, 2009, 2012 and 2014 World Cup. He might of played more but I can at least track those years on Wiki as he placed in the top 3.

So he has played at least 8 big world events -- bayttplayer is not far off. Now, I'm just laying out the facts of his record, and it's people's opinion whether it's impressive or not.

One argument you can make for him, is that the Pro Tour Finals should be accounted as a big world event as well. After all, it's a world wide event that accounts for pro tour performances of the whole year. Ma Long has won the Pro Tour Finals a number of times.
