That penhold really hurt Lee on his bh side. This is why I'm hesitant to switch. I do prefer forehands with a penhold, but my backhands are so much better with the shakehand.

@MassHysteria92 Well that's just not true. Ryu Seung Min is ranked 15 in the world and Lee Jung Woo is ranked 27, I think, so they could easily beat the vast majority of table tennis players in the world, regardless of playing style. Ma Long is ranked no.2 in the world and was a much better player in this match; being a shakehander had nothing to do with it.

@MeckelBot Yeah, but that's an unfair comparison. Wang Hao is a consistency attacker, whereas Ma Long is a power attacker. Wang Hao plays a style based on not missing - Ma Long plays a much more aggressive game, based on landing a kill shot as early as possible. Also (and partly as a result of the above), Wang Hao generally plays further from the table than Ma Long and thus has more time to loop.

[MassHysteria92]

a penhold player without an RPB stands no chance against a shakehand player

@Stuffcakes wang hao did tha a couple of years ago. he barely even blocked

[Stuffcakes]

Ma Long is just outstanding. What makes him unique is that he never plays a defensive ball. Ev en in the hardest situations he attacks. Amazing how someone like that can dominate the sport!
