      When Boll met Ma Long in Tokyo, I know the result of their match is nearly certain. But as a Chinese, I was even hoping Boll can beats Ma in at least one game. And Boll really did it. 40 years old, can still beat the world champion.

    @filipcza Před 2 lety +4

    Timo is really strong in the mental game. Dimitri is in my opinions faster and hits harder, especially backhand technically he should win, but the longer the game lasts and the more there is pressure, Timo starts to come out on the top, he never loses his touch.
    This comes down to calm nerves under pressure, which comes from experience and that is something Timo has a bucketfull.

    How does Timo control these counter topspins so well? Absolutely insane! He almost made no unforced errors and somehow always put the ball back onto the table with a lot of topspin. Haven't seen players win so many points with spinny shots since the plastic balls were released.

    It is a joy to see these two play. Timo and Dimitij must have met dozens of times in national and international tournaments, both as opponents and friends, especially when they play in the national team.
    I don't think they have many surprises left for each other and you can definitely tell in this match that they know what each other is playing for and how they try to make their points.
    Of course Boll is a force of nature, even now in his fourties he keeps winning big tournaments, but still this was a really special match.

    When Timo forces Dima to switch from backhand to forehand in the very same rally, he wins the point 99,99% of the time. Dima's defensive footwork is slower to activate on his forehand side, leading him often to throw forehand topspins hoping on one leg.

    • @wildcard7649
      @wildcard7649 Před 2 lety

Dima's strategy was to hit he ball early after the bounce with his backhand and find angles. But when you are that BH oriented, those angles better be sharp.

      @@wildcard7649 That' would be a clue in spotting one's weaker stroke. The FH/BH distribution in the coverage of the table is a greater tell, I would argue. Dima is very good at sliding to his right side to open up the short game with a BH in the diagonal. It worked for a while until Timo's BH exposed Dima's coverage down the line. Timo's BH is untargetable.

    For this tournament, my favorite is Dima, since he already won one international title & in a very good shape after Russian League. But at this final, he is totally dominated by Timo. I guess changing blade work perfectly for Timo, his FH is faster, has more power & still maintaining topspin. I hope Timo can deliver surprise in individual Olympic match, secure no less than a Silver. FZD is too tough to beat though.

    What blades did they use? Boll's blade on 2:45 is highly likely Primorac Carbon. The Ovtcharov's one I couldn't recognize. Harimoto Super ZLC or even not Butterfly?
