It's remarkable that someone can pull off a professional smash with a grip that _nobody_ uses, especially with the non-dominant hand, and that he probably never used in practice in his life: an emergency impromptu grip that came without choice in the milliseconds of the hand-off.
very entertaining but also not efficient enough he could become the best if he goes into the Chinese league and improves his game a little he's still so young
@@ParanoidAndroid86 Then he would start playing like them and creativity and uniqueness would end. He plays with these chop blocks and other tricks like a Waldner back in days and this is his advantage/ I remind you that Waldner was an Olympic and world Champion/. He showed it during the olympics against Wang Chuqin winning 4:2. He is more technically advanced to play these chop blocks or slap shots. In China only Ma Long can play it, if I don't mistake.
@zencosuzuki8496 Chinese players are creative in this league look at Xu Xin! (I guess he's retired now) The goal is to win, and you can play like Pep's Barca all day, but what's the point if you don't win anything?

Nope, not by a long shot.... that would be jai alai, the ball is 3/4 the size of a baseball, harder than a golf ball, and can get up to 188 mph. These fast shots are going about 70 mph.
@@scooter2163 True. What about reaction time? For tabletennis, the time for the ball to travel from the opponent's racket to you must be smaller than in jai alai? A "faster" sport.
@@TomasVolley You make a good point.. I took the question literally - fastest ball sport, and the jai alai ball gets thown on a relatively small playing court (+/- 180' x 45') considering the speed of the pelota. I'd rather get hit by a table tennis ball at 70 mph from 12 inches than a pelota humming along at a buck eighty eight from 120 feet.
And Europe should be happy for that. You can't beat China if you don't have top competition in Europe. J-O Waldner and Jörgen had Mikael Appelgren, Grubba, Saive and Gatien which at their best could beat them. Without them, no J-O legend today.
Everyone calling this guy overrated = ??? His highest rank was 3rd in the world. You're probably eating at home right now sitting on your chair eating a taco playing casual table tennis at the local club and recently got beaten by a 10 year old so now you have to go post a hateful comment. Look down and look at that big belly of yours. Now who's overrated.
but that's not true 😅 Didn't reach the semi final of the european championships last year and was knocked out of europe top 16 cup in qf by Pitchford this year!! He also lost 3 times to Lebruns this year who are both younger than him
@@hezarf7n it doesn’t matter. One lucky match does not change reality. Look at Jeong Sangeun, beating MA Long in 2017, where is he now? Truls will forever be cannon fodder. There will never be another Waldner in the west.
Its not possible for any one of us spectators, not even for those of us who play TT actively, to know today How a promising player like Möregårdh will develop during the coming years. At least he is one of the more creative players in the World scene and has a great forehand. The fact that there are other promising players doesn’t diminish his potential! 💪👍🏓
@@ashbody000 I think you misunderstand the title. The domination mentioned refers to individual points. It is not about world domination. His style of play builds on domination of the table.

It's kind of ridiculous to call it a gimmick when we're talking about a player who has been as high as third in the world and already played a World Cup singles final at the age of only 20! Truls is insanely talented and hopefully has an amazing future ahead of him.

@@Andrew.webster1 clearly you need to learn the meaning of the word “overrated” before saying anything. Who overrates me?

What an insane highlight reel. This guy is such a trickster.
He has given us so much beautiful table tennis. Lovely demonstration of touch and power in unison.
That switch to left the left hand at 2.04 just to be able to hammer a forehand was formidable.
quite rare for a right hand player to be ambidextrous

Truls is very popular in China,lots of people like him. He is not the best, but he is unique and creative.
he may not be the best but he placed 2nd in 2021 in a world cup. That's about as close to being the best as one can get.

Yes bro
lol chinese whoop their ass almost everytime tho
Especially Felix and Truls.
Felix not Alexis
Flashes of the old Waldner magic in his game for sure
Great compilation!
Now he is in the olympic final.
Energetic version of Waldner.
Guys face of disbelief at 8:01 is priceless 😂
Exactly! He was like "how the hell did you play it to my left when the right way clearly open for you?!"
Man. Forget looping! 🔥

Reminiscent of Ma Lin's style if transposed to shakehand
he also dominates the racket throwing competition
have a link for that?

What a complete player. He will soon be the Chinese nightmare.He's very confident and comfortable with his backhand.
4:58 never seen more powerful shot than this one. Fucking bullet
What a talent player
i guess we all play table tennis, on some level. What Truls does do, we all want to do.
Is safe to say thay timo had a mental block against truls and truls had a mental block again lebrun brothers 😂
He beat Alexis at the European team Championship to send France packing.
Just Against Felix.

What the hell, he switched from right hand to left hand 2:09
Boll is famous for that. I think lots of the top players have it in their arsenal.

This Truls Moregard is too good. The other pro's will have to ..euhm.. cough.. 'arrange an accident' for him 😆😉
Wow!!!!!!!

That was really insulting to that guy
My coach said my style looks exactly like this guys, AND MAAAN IS IT TRUE
Holy goodness
The thumbnail guy looks like Ludwig for some reason @ludwig LOL
Swag
now there is Alexis Lebrun so everything will be much more complicated for truls 😬😬
This rivalry will only make them both better! It will be awesome to watch! It's a good thing!
