    Schlager has ridiculous spin on his serve which the top Chinese struggled to cope - it's so evident int he WTTC in 2003. One can see the ball kick in this clip - crazy amount of spin - very fine ball sensing and feeling by Schlager. Practice is important, but first you need to see it in your mind the ball settling into the top sheet in the 'bite' stage to get crazy spin on serve. Thanks, Dan, for Schlager's masterclass.

He his terribly missed and I would wish he would re-instate his presence. So many more talented players would emerge from is gravitational pull.

    This was wonderful. He completely understood your joking compliment which was great. Him blocking your best loops reminds me. Playimg Alan Hyde at an exhibition about 12 years ago. He rarely plays but in the 70s (when I was a junior) he was international England. Think he beat jonyer. I’m an average Brighton 1st div player but my loop is ok. Hitting it is hard as I could he was nonchalantly returning it while nicely saying +ve things.

      @@dewnyc Yeah I know, I just feel like it would be a fun rematch since Dan has got a lot better over the past few years

    Werner was/is an entertainer, like Waldner and a few others. This to me is TT. There is playful love to the sport and the possibilities to play are plentiful. Those few played with so much creativity and unique styles. It is different to train like a machine your best shots to kill the point like the chinese do nowadays. They deserve the most respect, but thats not how you earn love !! You might the one with most titles, but TT is more than that. Millions watch Adam and the finnish guys, why is that ? Think about it. Werner you are one of my all time favourites and those two tips are gold. Thanks

    Love the style of Schlager, one of the smartest players I've ever seen! Somebody knows which equipment he's using?

      His blade is his Butterfly namesake blade. I didn't see the rubbers, but maybe the Tenergy edge tape gives it away.

      Do you mean what racket he used to play when speed glueing was allowed? First he played the Primorac Offensive Tamca 5000 carbon and later he got his own butterfly blade Butterfly Schlager Offensive. It's the same composition as the Primorac with a thicker core. His rubbers were Butterfly Bryce max thickness on both sides. They aren't produced anymore. The Schlager blade is also discontinued, you can still buy the Butterfly Primorac Offensive blade. Cheers.
