beginning late

Hi coach,

i'd like to ask you about starting playing table tennis at 19 years old (with a little practice before that). if i start training SERIOUSLY and INTENSIVELY (at least 3 hours a day) can i become a professional player...bearing in mind that i developed to a great extent just within 6 months.

thanks too much for your website and your valuable help .

Hi Masho,

You are certainly doing it the hard way.  Just focus on improving a sfast as you can.  Practice well and then see where you get to.  Nothing I say will help or restrict you.  Professional players are of a hugely varying standard.

Just go for it and see where you can reach.
