Lorestas Trumpauskas Vs Michael O’Driscoll Final of Veterans at Match Point Tournament on 03/11/24.

[@miketurner3964]

When I grow up I want to play like Michael O’Driscoll…but I’ll be 63 next year, so I might struggle. Lovely game, played with a mutual respect that is now seldom seen in Table Tennis. Thanks for posting it up Rory.

​@@roryscott1976I think you're dead right about that but there are probably a few inactive that would be favourite I imagine, the likes of Ryan Jenkins.

@@TripodianTT yes no doubt and probably Alan Cooke, Alex Perry, Carl Prean etc. but since they don’t compete they don’t count.

Wow grove…..Ian Marshall….great days

@ Ian was coaching the Tuesday sessions at Horsham Table Tennis Club in 2006 and I took over from him at that point, which was near the start of my professional table tennis coaching journey.

@@blazer2787 sorry I don’t know, but I’m pretty sure Lorestas plays with Donic, so perhaps Bluefire? 🤔
