Timo Boll has enjoyed an illustrious career - he's the most accomplished player in European Championships history. However, he has never won a gold at the World Championships. In this video, we look back at his opponents and journey through the WTTC singles events from 1997 to 2021.

His 2021 performence was really good! Sadly he was injured, without it he would have beaten truls and probably lose the final. (silver medal) Timo is a legend. He might get injured often and his form drops a lot but in form he is still really solid.
Yes, his longevity is admirable 👍
Werner Schlager, last european world champion 2003👍👍 He deserves credit too. Beat Wang Liqin, Kong Linghui at the same tournament 🏆🏆
that's like beating ma long and fan zhendong in the same tourney when translated to today's time!
2017?
And later lost to an old guy in 1st round.
Boll is massively respected in China. Although he is not as decorated as the top Chinese players of the last few generations, most Chinese pingpong fans would consider him an equal, obviously for his consistent top level performance against the crazy talented Chinese players in all kinds of competitions.
very nice video, good work consolidating all timo statistics for WTT
Very nice video! Thanks!
I wish people more appreciate and watch video like this- it takes a lot of time for graphic like this. Not even time ofc...
I think if Timo did not have a walkover against Jang Woojin in 2019 he could have made his first World Championship final or at least a bronze medal that year
Yeah, but sadly he didn't 😢
Explain please
He had to forfeit vs Jang Woojin because of an Injury and 2019 had many upsets including a lot of Chinese Players losing.
Very clear path to the finals for Timo since he would have only faced players he never lost to until then and he was also playing very well until the injury.
@@sylvcast9948 It was sickness with high fever, not an injury, but the same result - Timo withdrew. I agree he had a really good chance to make the final. There were not a lot of Chinese players losing, Xu Xin was the only one losign to a foreigner (Simon Gauzy, in of the best matches of the tournament), but he was the only Chinese on that side of the draw.
Good video.
2021 is the closest to reach the final of the world championships.
And in Olympics, Timo boll lost to non-chinese players.
Sydney Olympics 2000, lost to Werner Schlager.
Athene Olympics 2004, lost to Waldner.
Beijing Olympics 2008, lost to oh sang eun.
London Olympics 2012, lost to Adrian Crisan.
Rio Olympics 2016, lost to Aruna Quadri.
Tokyo Olympics 2020, lost to Jeoung Yongsik.
what a legend.
Great info!
2021 was particularly annoying. A fit Timo Boll straining all his skill and tactical ingenuity to claim a set off FZD, would have been a much better final than the one-side massacre we got because Moregard, rather luckily, beat an injured Boll in the semi.
Same reason why you and I didn't win one.
You dont aswered the title question.
In 2019 he withdrew against Jang Woojin
He won world cup 2017
he beat ma long , but he lost by dima in the final
@@rizki1104 The time he beat Ma Long was interesting: shortly before in June 2017, LGL was just fired from the post of CNT head coach by an upper official, so the entire CNT team went on strike - they did not show up for a tournament in Chengdu China, and Ma Long was not 100% mentally playing at the World Cup.
Why you only show the results and don't analyse the problem like you say in your title?
Because in this case, results are pretty much explanatory. Young Boll was not good enough to do wonders. In his prime, Boll chocked a few times against lower-ranked players, and as he got older, the Chinese became way too strong to compete against them. World Championships simply wasn't his tournament, it seems. As someone wrote before, he lacked that wolf mentality to win the gold.
Very, very good... But not good enough❗
2025 Timo strikes back!
The title should change the world 'Why' to 'How'. Timo is very good but just not good enough to reach the top.
Today timo boll plays far better than young timo but today Chinese even was stronger than Waldner era that why he never get grand slam titles.
If timo could play today level when he was young age may be he can win grand slam title for sure .
Waldner was a better player, he lead the development something Boll never did. He also had a stronger team around him (Persson, Appelgren, Lindh, Karlsson). Players need develop and be better, see Waldner in 81 and compare with 2000 or 2004.. You have to!
Really?Boll who struggled to players like Crisan and Oh Sang Eun was stronger than Waldner?
He beat the Chinese in smaller tournaments mostly because he is a lefty just like his model Rosskopf who was equally irrelevant at the WTTC.
Maze who had the most terrible technique ever beat Wang Hao at the WTTC.
Shows how much advantage lefties had over penholders.
If Boll plays better than his younger self did(which he doesn't) it only shows that he was badly coached and lost his best years.
It's not like Germany didn't invest massively with the Bundesliga to lift the level of their players since the 80's.
Timo is too humble. He lacks wolf"s character.
"Humble" LOL. More like a coward with a weak nervous system.
Now he did it he won a World Championship.
Min may bar low ma tar min lee ba ya ma min an Kuang ko ba lo lee lo saut sagar Myar dar le
Because of 100 insanely good chinese players lol?
The chinese did him dirty .. with the bigger balls
Sure, blame everything on the Chinese!
Except bigger balls were brought in to handicap Chinese players. Small balls are super fast and spinny, great for Chinese players with extremely thorough training. Before the change guys like Liu Guoliang was doing these crazy tricky serves so every point ended in 1 second. It's more difficult to effectively put spin on bigger balls for Chinese players who are typically shorter/less strong comparing to their European counterparts.
You got it backwards -- the big ball was introduced to slow down the ball speed, which the Chinese players were good at.
What a clown😂
because he is to bad?
