The best table-tennis player of all time is Jan-Ove Waldner.
These are some of his most prestigous titles:
Seven times Swedish Champion
Seven times European Top 12 Champion
1989,1997 WTTC Men's Singles Champion (runner-up in 1991)
1989,1991,1993 WTTC Men's Team Champion
1992 Olympic Men's Singles Champion
1996 European Champion
He's also been European Champion in Men's doubles (with Jorgen
Persson)
He's known to have the best serve in the world (according to most
of his opponents).
He currently plays with a Donic Waldner DICON blade and Donic J.O.
Waldner rubbers. He used Banda Coppa rubbers in the past and a
Banda Waldner Offensive blade. Banda has been acquired by Donic and
Coppa and the Waldner Off blade are now produced under the Donic
brandname.
