I have probably posted this elsewhere but I feel as the spirit of the time warrants this and I believe that timo Boll has achieved the highest he we will ever achieve in his lifetime, a tribute to the current kind of table tennis is worth it. We have right now January 2011 a non Chinese table tennis player as the best in the world. Oh yes the idiots out there will find a million excuses for why the Chinese are not in this position. But I say a simple shut your mouth, he also had to deal with the same system, he also had injury, he also had his problems, he was always considered the nicest sportsman.
He deserves a salute even though I'm not into that kind of military cr(p. Somebody shut the Chinese up, just as the Singapore ladies did to the Chinese last year. That as hard as it looks to beat the goliath population of players, the love of the sport and true hard work you can be the best in the world.
