    At 56 seconds is really grandmasterful with such a far and high return. Also making a point with it! Even Saive could hardly believe it!

    In de tachtig en negentiger jaren veel tafeltennistoernooien bezocht. (Top 12, EK's en WK's) Partijen van Waldner waren altijd favoriet bij het publiek. Ooit op een top 12 in Charleroi Saive compleet vernederd zien worden. Eerste 2 sets iets van 21-9 en 21-6 (toen nog best of five tot de 21). In de derde set liet Waldner de touwtjes even vieren en werd het 20-20. Op dat moment zag je echt bij Saive iets van laat ik die 2 punten maar weggeven want anders moet ik nog een 4e set spelen.

    When waldner Got a slow highball and he could smash. He changed his grip slightly and smashes the Ball sometimes out of the court ten meters away from his opponent. Never seen anybody do that. Looks like completely crazy risky shot, but he did it everytime. For sure the best smasher of all time. 😮
