u can bcos the organisations (federation) doesnt have the capability to do right to provide right value/mindset/benefit for the fraternity. since ww1 period
the supporter indeed has an impact on the player esp. the loud cheer does break the morale of the opponent. unless the opponent is deaf.will keep his focus on the game.
so disrespectful. They would never do that in asia, ever. Shows just how different the cultures are. I watched the whole thing hoping Chen would win it, just to leave that crowd speechless.
Bentsen had a Swedish coach which is probably why he had a good forehand despite starting playing the game really late at the age of 11. Maze on the other hand was trained in Germany and his forehand technique was really atrocious .
Dislike how Bentsen jubilates all the time, clenching his fists, shouting out loud. I know a lot of players do it today from time to time, but Bentsen overacts. It is hard for a table tennis player to stick to concentration when you are are behind AND your opponent pulls such a stunt.
max factor As a table tennis player I want my opponent to concentrate and me to concentrate to create spectacular points instead of winning by destroying opponents concentration.
In practice or presentation game. Yeah ill be cool, but in real game ill be a jerk who wants the f..king point by any means.... bcz i simply want to win . In future no one remember beautiful game, only winner will be in memories.
+Albrecht Scheidig I think having more emotive players only helps our sport. Just like the sport of tennis has been helped by players like McEnroe, Nastase, Connors, Nadal, our sport of TT benefits when the crowd feels emotion from the players like Bentsen, Saive, Jike, etc.
how come when the guy served and the Asian guy returned it and I hit the net and it fell on the white guys why did the Asian I not get a point because it bounced twice on the white guy said I'm confused
