LEGEND. Jag är en kines som bor här i Sverige. Jan-Ove Waldners har varit min största bordtennis idol sen barnsben. HELT magisk fantastisk karriär kungen hade haft!!! Älskar honom!

[@monortues]

A genius and legend. He played with 6 generations of Chinese players.

[@rosamelfierro6093]

Waldner was the best. Still is as a trainer.

[@taopaille-paille4992]

8 generations actually.

[@maxdeinlein1706]

WHO is he training ? Truls?

[@marcpopick248]

6:50 is definition of supreme control and showmanship. Only Waldner can do this

[@b2bsnews699]

3:45 Waldner realise everything and also confuse the camera man. Sure he saw only red and Black 🤣😂 I love Waldner so much and he is so cool kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZXIlICIdqusbac

I am from Slovakia, but my favourite athletes of all times are - beside Michael Schumacher and Wayne Gretzky - Ingemar Stenmark, Bjorn Borg, Ronnie Peterson and Jan - Ove Waldner.

[@chinahker6444]

My sincerest salute to this great player, the most formidable opponent of the Chinese players for ever

Love the no look shots. Just magical. Only Waldner.

[@sachiyotanaka2156]

Waldner was my hero, when I was a teenager. I left table tennis like 22 years, so I didn't know that he had played until 2016 just 4 years ago. Amazing. Respect.

[@bruce3906]

you guys have no idea how hard it is to play like that at that age, any serious training would probably result in some kind of injuries.

[@mohdsoffi902]

Since Olimpik 1990 Jan Ove Waldner inspired me. He is the one who triggered me to play table tennis until now. During that time hw won the gold Olimpik medal.

[@justchill99902]

What an absolute Legend of the game! The Mozart. One can learn alot from his game.

[@joemarshall4226]

The change of speeds is what is so intersting about Jan's game

First time I watched him was world cup team final against China when I was in high school. China won.After the game, everyone were talking about those Swedish teenagers. His name is 瓦尔德内尔

does he use chinese rubber?

Pretty sure his setup would be Waldner Senso Carbo JO Shape with Coppa JO Gold on the forehand and Coppa JO Platinum on the backhand. That's what he used for a long time, from like 2001-on, I believe

Were those actual, real matches? It looked like they were often faking it - not much power at all. Then again, I just came from watching Ma Long vs. Kristian Karlsson, as well as Xu Xin vs. Hugo Calderano. lol

Michael Doe no he wouldnt be. The game passes him by already. The game today is changed so much,his style is too slow now. But regardless he is still the legend, i watched him destroying so many generations of chinese players. I have nothing but utmost respect for him.

[@SKAVSTADEATHCREW]

@@yongdeng1813 Waldner adapted to so many major changes to the game throughout his carreer, i doubt he wouldnt have kept on adapting if he had the physical attributes/fitness to still play.

[@rosamelfierro6093]

He would and he could. Absolutely, only because of his talent and technique, but he competes only in top 5 or 3, and that's why he's a trainer nowadays.
