About him, it is not about to be champion, but it is more than that. The most important is the entertaining for the spectators. He plays always with arts, loss or win does not matter..He is a legend. Because of him, I play this sport with penhold & RPB, even I start in this sport from 42 years old.
The best thing about xu xin is that he enjoys making people enjoy. I may not be lucky to see a playing J.O. Waldner in my time but I am lucky enough to see a Xu Xin!
This is first time hearing people don't consider tt a sports. At my place people consider it a very difficult one as moving ball on a table and they too very fast is very difficult
People often have illusions when watching pro games from the TV, the actual speed is way over the speed you watched here, the same for NBA, soccer and etc.

In this case; Wang Hao's backside fingers are straighter than Felix's, making it more balanced for forehand and backhand looping. Felix's grip style is more suited for backhand quick attack close to the table, but is weaker for forehand over-the-table play.
