[urmomisgei]

@jevres342 look for xu xin vs ma lin kuwait open

[Irfan87]

The forehand flick by Ma Lin at 0:52 is just awesome.

[PreppyPoser1]

So what kind of serve is Ma Lin using in this match? Like 5:15-5:18 is that side topspin?

[jayjaymatt]

@PreppyPoser1 it looks like it might just be sidespin

[Darkoriangio]

zhang jike got furious lol hit ma lin on his head

[J0kerofHearts]

lol ma lin is such a brawler

[PingMast]

control is everything...XD...and the best weapon in table tennis...XD

[Galimah]

Imagine if Ma Lin would win the next WTTC single in Rotterdam, then he would be the only 4th man to make such a feat. Still Ma Lin is as it is one of the greatest ever.

[Chinesekage]

2:33 ma lin turns into superman o_o

[studentofpakmei]

FOREHAND IS EVERYTHING FOR MA LIN!!!!!!!!!! hahah SOOO COOOOLL

[AsiaFighter94]

Ma Lin and Wang Liqin are the best examples to show that the age doesnt really matter.

[Sasotzu]

Great match !

[giaci89thebest]

incredible match

[59awesomeness]

last point in game 1 from ma lin was beast

[J0kerofHearts]

playing pingpong is too stressful on the body and mind. i don't believe many professional pingpong players will live past 60 with all that stress on their bodies. i think maybe with golf or swimming, the movements are less jerky and sudden, so maybe their bodies take less of a beating?

[17teacmrocks]

er..no. if you play properly, you're keeping loose and not really jerking muscles. it's a reflex sport utilizing technique and strategy. muscle power isn't much of a factor here.

if you do it wrong though, you could get tennis elbow, shoulder injuries, back injuries, etc.

imo, the official table height should be raised higher. ppl aren't as short as they were back when this was invented. it would reduce the stress on the knees

[J0kerofHearts]

oh man, no way. I'm 5'3" and table tennis is one of the only things that I can play without being at a disadvantage. Don't raise the table height, that would be disastrous.

[jayjaymatt]

muscle power isnt much of a factor? are you nuts, you get the power in your shots from your muscles, you push yourself around the court with your muscles, look at wang liqin, he is seriously muscly, and hes got arguably the best forehand in the world, cos he transfers the power through his legs, into his torso through his arms. lets say you play all forehands like ma lin and ryu seung min, they have unbelievably strong legs being able to kick themselves all round the court.

[mryummyumm]

i think you're missing the point. i've been able to leg press 800 lbs since i was 16 so according to your idea, i should be world class since muscle power is a huge factor.

i bench 225, fly 225, lat 155, and a number of other things way more than these guys. so i have the best forehand ? i don't think so.

[TaciTiciBoy]

@mryummyumm everybody can say that

[J0kerofHearts]

how old is zhang jike? if he is young, i think he'll have a good future.

[jayjaymatt]

hes like 20 i think maybe younger, hes still in under 21-s ranking list i think

[PreppyPoser1]

Beautiful game!

[apun94]

@tt countenance. from where do u guys find these vids. i also wanna upload vids, but i cant find any vids

[PingMast]

0.43....no one in this world can handle this...

[otterboxiphone]

4.40 is the best sniper shot.

[accord03]

Man, I finally see Ma Lin beating Zhang Jike. lol Seems like Ma is coming back!!

[riddimbox]

China vs China matches becomed much more interesting with those youngsters ma long , xu xin & jhang jike ... and ye... Ma Lin complete monster in this tournament

[TheKobayakawasena21]

@riddimbox even zhang jike is cyborg, ma lin still can win

[urmomisgei]

@riddimbox xu xin still beats him tho lol

[padiltimo]

is seems that ma lin is still improving!!!

[GBtabletennis]

@padiltimo I think Ma Lin has the same intelligent skill like Walnder is having.. :D

[17teacmrocks]

ma lin is a nice guy. after jike hit him in the eye, he knew he'd feel bad and hold back. ma lin held back too and even did a re-serve when he noticed jike wasn't ready. it may have touched the net but it was negligible. he could've played on and no one notice.

[shadowskillet14]

Holy chey! What an amazing reloop after first open.

In other news, was the audience invisible or something? Where was the applause?!

[scylla24]

wow I am surprised but happy that Ma Lin won.... he usually loses pretty badly to Zhang Jike....

[IsteraN]

fantastic game by Ma Lin , what a reaction he has !!!

[tanxu]

Magical Performance by Ma Lin!!!

Penhold Forever!!!
