E. Scholer was the first high-level defender to use a combination racquet. (Thin) inverted rubber forehand, hardbat backhand. He did not twiddle. Had he learned a bit of tactical* twiddling, it would probably have been enough to squeak through those 2 points he lost to Itoh and become the first World Champion chopper of the sponge era. _____ * Say, once every 5 points.

Great series. A bit of an oversight to skip right past Liu Guoliang's career given they highlighted so many others. There needs to be a part 6 picking up where this left off. :)

Awful documentary, but nice compilation of ping pong history
