Hi Alois!
Who is the best table tennis player in the world? Jan Ove Waldner or Ma Long? Please tell me what do you think!

Hi Nasko,
I think the best of all time is Waldner. As far as at the moment I think there is so little between the top three, MA Long, Zhang Jike and Wang Hao that it is a matter of who is playing best on the day.
Who do you think is the best?
