Chinese players needed to enhance their abilities against topspin loops in the 1970s. The backhand block/forehand attack style of pimple-out penholders became the mainstream style. Typical examples were Xu Shaofa, Li Jingguang, and Li Zhenshi. However, as Chinese produced fewer elite players who attacked from both sides, the Japanese stayed with this technique and produced Mitsuru Kohno, who won the men's singles title at the34th World Championships in 1977. Meanwhile, penholders with inverted rubber also performed well, as demonstrated by Seiji Ono of Japan, who won the world singles championship in 1979.

  • Yoshida?? I'd rather say Mizutani...

    By the way, Yoshida is Chinese.

  • what about koji matsushita or yoshida kaii?

  • Yes, it is Gatien speaking

  • Thanks for the video as we have few images available of Ono. In the middle of your video, we heard a short comment in french, which seems that of Gatien. Could you confirm ?
