HERE'S THE REASON WHY HE DOESN'T TAP IT IN:
J.O. Waldner and J. Persson play one of the best points ever.
In several Million views, the most frequently asked question has been: "Why doesn't he just tap it in?".
Well, of course that can be done. It's extremely difficult to do it right, because of the massive spin, and on a high bounce the opponent can run in a kill it, or, if you're the "Mozart of Table Tennis", this is how you deal with it: Look at "Table Tennis Spectacular - Part 2"
.
For the "experts" that belittle this as "exhibition": If you can only appreciate table tennis skills that are aimed at hard core competition, you are missing so much of what makes this sport fun. Lighten up and take yourself less seriously. The best in the world can, why not you?

Some more excellence in

  • why didnt the guy in blue just tap it instead of whacking it so the other guy can hit it back?

  • All of my heroes, are table tennis players. Zoran Primorac, Jan-Ove Waldner, Wang Tao, Jorg Rosskopf and of course Ashraf Helmy. I even have a life-size poster of Hugo Hoyama on my wall. And the first time I left my home town of Pennsylvania, was to go to the hall of fame induction ceremony of Andrzej Grubba.
