Qatar Open: Timo Boll-Zhang Jike

[Jheison99]

Zhang Jike Is The Best!

[mahmooddr]

Timo Boll: has the cutest the most humble personality+ Good player.

Zhang Jike: Good Player+ Hesistant sometimes (Esp when he plays with Ma Long).

Ma Long: Robot+ Good player bt without style or a special flavour (Knows victims weakpoint and attacks it like a bitch).

Xu Xin: Very good player+ Special technique and style.

Dima: Sex machine that does soft porn grunts with his racket/rubbers in public.

[skeptiker1337]

What's the music starting around 7:55? Anyone please?

[Joosehyukful]

7:24 hi mom. lol :p

[mahdimaktabdar]

I love u timo , from iran

[timoboll88]

Amazing! I have rarely seen Timo Boll play like that!

[focker0000]

timo is VERY famous now in china ! he is a cool guy, i like his style

[DimaKats2]

Who made the sound sound like this?

[spanishbuzztoystory]

@ 3:01, what the fuck is that music?

[lccansmd]

the chinese coach is prolly like "i can't wait till timo boll retires, then i can just sit back and relax in the semifinals part of the tournament, its gnna b china vs china"

[slavyuu]

Timo Boll's blocking technique is awesome!

[Flokib]

That one dislike is from Zhang Jike.No Doubt :-)

[spikeclux]

I heard someone farted at 05:00 !

[HolyPhoenix88]

Why is there a dislike for this video... clearly Zhang Jike that has done that hah!

[kitmo123456789]

what the fucking timo boll that lucky shit!

[richensmartin]

I have to say I absolutely love Timo Boll's playing style. He just makes it look so easy and he is great to watch. Samsonov is another player that is great to watch. To be honest though Zhang Jike is a great player already and is going to one of the contenders for the world number 1 spot over the next two or three years. He has immense power, great footwork and is great to watch. He is a huge prospect for the future.

[anglabokonaman1]

Zhang's top spin were sharp, sometimes hit the edge of the racket of Timo. Boll slowly got the rythm of the game countering the top spins and is more accurate in the crucial points.

[lupzhero]

Timo is the man.... but most of you guys underestimate zhang. I'm pretty sure all of you thought this was going to be 4-0. Zhang's got the stuff, but he's in the process. Plus it was the semis, so don't take anything away from him

[Deobfuscator]

To commentator: Paste 张继科 into Google Translate and click Listen. At least once.

[DKPOWA]

ZJK showed no BH = poor blocking skills + no topspin. Half baked tactics and no real aggressiveness, all in all like most of European players, such a shame for a chinese...

[KripkeSaul]

Look at Liu Gouliang's face at 2:22!

[scylla24]

man, despite Zhang losing this match, I just gotta say, his backhand flips over the table are out of this world....

[MrWaaghals]

Oh boy do I love seeing Timo beat the chinese

[lopezrodriquez]

average match

[thestig011]

@lopezrodriquez definetly not what everyone expected

[clmdss]

on behalf of Xu Xin, I wanna thank Timo for eliminating Zhang Jike. Xu would have lost to Zhang if they play in the final

[scylla24]

@clmdss eh, the match would definitely have been closer than the 4-0 wooping Boll got, but Xu beat Zhang in their last meeting. But yes, Xu has more trouble with Zhang's playstyle than with a lot of the other players

[clmdss]

did commentary say "rally of the match" three times?

[Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh]

I think Europe is gaining some momentum. They have better players now.

[Izraphel]

incredible how timo even at this age is able to adapt his game and take it to a higher level... he seems to be following the trend of the new chinese generation and hitting the ball earlier, further in front of the body.

[drusha1]

congrats mr boll. this is the first time mr boll got jike by the balls:)

[quyenthenghiem]

The white score on white background is genius.

[perniciousnc]

everyone shud love n respect timo for his sportmanship n him as a person

but even if we love him (n i believe he would agree himself) he is not the best yet.

xuxin has beat him thoroughly this open, n i believe malin's, and especially wanghao's style are ones timo couldn't handle at the moment, of coz we wanna see timo rise up n beat some more chinese, but timo the best is juz not yet the fact

thx for sharing

[jayjaymatt]

@perniciousnc timo is way better than ma lin, xu xin he still hasn't played many times and has so much power it's unreal. but timo is better than ma lin, zhang jike still doesn't have a big weapon for me against people like timo. the thing with timo is he is very good at nullifying peoples power without being a massive hitter himself, I think currently he is the best in the world, but I think that's cos ma long has been injured recently? but yeah worthy number one in my opinion

[this1is2me7]

@jayjaymatt

not "way better" than Ma lin. Ma lin knocked out Boll in Moscow, remember?

The reason why Boll is not considered as the best player in the world is because he has only won 2 worldcups in the last ten years of his career. Unlike Ma lin and Wang liqin who have been diminating on the world titles, Boll is not a legenday player yet.

[shijunli]

@jayjaymatt ma lin is the legend, the olympic champion, best serve, best serve return, best ball control, best tactic, where does the "way better" come from? even not as good IMHO.

[DoxiMoxi]

1 word- comeback!

Du bist fantastisch Timo!!!

[rosun82]

Zhang's kill for the high ball near the net is really a problem...

[yourikahoka]

waiting for the final match video Xu Xin vs Timo Ball to be uploaded .... lol

[Serpentem]

ttCountenance Rocks!

[NightcruiserMA]

What a great, intense match. I didn't think Timo had a chance going in. Go Timo! Best sportsman in table tennis.

[JugglingDave]

Awesome table tennis! Keep these videos coming.

[madarivi]

lol sounds like they're playing with lightsabers xD

[Mr91Caaa]

[Bossiiiii]

timo is very stable, he has very few unforced errors. But just don't want to be a spoiler. It doesnt mean he won this match, you will see what i mean.

[takkyu101]

they really need a new commentator.

[ttCrawsaive]

I expected a HD coverage, but this quality equals it .

Thank you ttCountenance.

[lumm71]

[Chowqiao]

[IseeYouNewb]

unbelieveable

[ZeRoBrain993]

hope he can keep this shape up to rotterdam;)

[TableTennisDaily]

@ZeRoBrain993 you mean 2012!!! TImo ftw!! :DDD

[ZeRoBrain993]

@TableTennisDaily no. i'm talking about the worldchampionships 2011 in rotterdam but a victory of timo in 2012 would be awesome aswell :D

[GuiMXC]

Its always nice to see an European beat a Chinese.

[stalvio007]

Yeah Timo prooved that he deserve his first number  in TT rating

[yourikahoka]

big improvement for timo !

[MrPoorplay]

Boll's playstyle is so nice. I dont think he has haters.



[TorstenMaschine]

Timo Boll

is the best player in the World

i love table tennis

and i am proud that germany have one of the best player

<3

[Tobiasdaneels]

@TorstenMaschine I think he had a serious beating from Xu Xin in de final. Incredible player, Xu Xin.

[DuchDoby]

@TorstenMaschine I like Timo Boll, but Xu Xin beat him 4:0 and their H2H is 4:0 fo XX.He is best European and one of the best in the world, but not the best, only highest ranking for the moment.

[siegler1]

@DuchDoby you should stop commenting on videos if you're going to ruin the results for the rest of us.

[yourikahoka]

@siegler1 no bias man.... that's the fact..... Xu Xin owned everyone in Qatar Open 2011

[DuchDoby]

@siegler1 Sory man.

[goldenstyx]

@TorstenMaschine Too bad Boll got owned by Xu Xin 4:0 in the following match.

[G4mbler90]

Wow really fast cutting and upload! Ty!

Final will be very hard.

But Boll plays well today.

[Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh]

Wow, someone got pwned
