This Fantastic Olympic Rally Will Make You Ashamed Of Your Table Tennis Skills (UPDATE: Video Removed)


Forget handball. Table tennis is where it’s at! Just look at the rally below. People can call this a dumb sport if they want, but guess what? There are like 10 chicks in the world who can do this, and they’re all in London. They’re the best in the world, and they’re playing at the top of their game. Ping pong for days!

This insanely long rally comes courtesy of the women’s semifinal match between Feng Tianwei of Singapore and China’s Ding Ning. (This isn’t Ding Ning’s first appearance on SportsGrid.) The back-and-forth action goes on for almost a minute. I’m not a table tennis expert, but that seems like a really freakin’ long time.

Also, the good folks at Bob’s Blitz who brought us this video, pointed out that these very two players have engaged in seriously long rallies in the past, too. Check out the video on their site. The more recent rally can be seen below.

UPDATE: No it can’t, because the video got taken down. Instead, see a video of these players’ other exceptionally long rally (again, h/t to Bob’s Blitz).
