Félix Lebrun - Best of 2021-2022 - From 1132nd to 80th in the world

[@DistrictHero13]

His reflexes are insanely fast. If he keeps progressing, he could easily be in the top 10 in the world by the time he is an adult. And a penholder to top it off, a lost art.

[@emillyyelen5169]

its not a lost art ffs...

[@Keepcalm-lovesports]

@@tibes7105 You are right, even though I googled Ni Xialan and she is almost 60. There is definitely not many (good) penholder players outside China though.

[@el_equidistante]

he is number 10 now, at 17 so you fell short

[@paulbismuth10]

He is 15 and really impressive (already in the top 100). He will grow and probably gain the power that he lacks notably on the forehand. And is brother (18 years old ) is in the top 50 and improving a lot lately.

What a fresh air for the European table tennis , he is a champ in the making ....he is going to be the new Jan-Ove Waldner

[@chrissantos1877]

He's already making history in the world of table tennis, not only because his excelent playing , but also because his decision to go against the flow by choosing a grip that's not common in Europe. I hope he and Dang Qiu fly much, much higher!

[@davidvincent380]

Félix took a lot from his chinese player mentor (the "Cho-le!", the penhold grip...)

[@Blake-pz7jj]

He plays really great! Looks like he even plays better than Xu Xin. Go Felix!

[@tabletennisdrills8133]

mark my word, in 2 years time he will be in top 10...so good backhand and movement...

[@jiboo6850]

maybe you right but he needs to stop with that raised left hand like a gay. makes me cringe when i watch him. like Kanak pulling his shirt on the left shoulder while he's a righty on every point. makes no sense. i hate when people have weird manners like that. or even Ovtcharov wiping the outside of his left hand against his short for no reason after every point. if he needs to wipe it, shouldn't it be the palm where you sweat? -_- or Calderano shaking his bat next to his head like a blip blip crazy and blowing air on nothing instead of his hand? his poo-poo stance when receiving with the face going with?

[@shenzhenpingpong]

Very impressive rallies. Go Félix! Let's see some WTT titles!

[@ttime9947]

You don't see this young guy fishing or lobbing. He is always in a good position to counter the topspins back. He seems to be the kind of player who uses the speed of the opponent but doesn't generate so much speed himself.

[@shenzhenpingpong]

@@ttime9947 , he is fast and able to stay close to counterloop or block. That way, he denies his opponent time and opportunity. And his penhold backhand is very accurate, but not a power shot like Franziska. His forehand is also not a Xu Xin that blinds the opponent with speed and spin. The big question is whether he can step up to become a top contender. Is he even the best penholder in Europe? Dang Qiu seems better at the moment. And if he plays the Asians, who are just as fast as him, can he compete? I am fascinated to see whether he can live with their game. I wish him the best.

Very impressive especially as he is using Penholder which isn't that usual outside Asia and even there its not that usual. But sorry he shouts to much, for me this is really rude behaviour .... of course shouting after a hard fight is usual and okay but this is a little bit to much ....

[@BARRLEM]

What's your problem mate. He can shout if he wants, he's just very focused on the game. And he stays very respectful.

[@XYoukaiX]

@@BARRLEM yo man ma problem ya ask man ? xD As I said for me personally its rather rude if someone is overdoing the shouting especially when there was nothing worth shouting at the point. I had such an opponent myselfe once and gave up in the end as I was so pissed that he was shouting and waving his fist in my direction no matter if he had just luck with net or border or I had some bad luck hitting net and missing the table because of it. If there is a good fight yeah shout if you want but not for every single point no matter if its earned or not, that's just bad manners.
