In Houston, only 19-year-old Swedish boy Moregold, lost 0-4 to China's Fan Zhendong, and won the second place, which is also the Swede's two consecutive World Table Tennis Championships finals. In the face of the powerful Chinese runners, Moregold did not have any chance, and the runner-up was the final finish.
After entering the new century, the world table tennis singles champion was monopolized by the Chinese, and it was not until 2019 that it was broken by The Swede Falke (losing 1-4 to Malone in the final) Moregold's 0-4 score is the most disparity in more than two decades. I did not examine it carefully, but this score is likely to be the most disparity in the history of the men's singles final of the World Table Tennis Championships, and the difference in strength is also very different.
But that didn't stop Moregold from succeeding. You know, he's only 19 years old. Ball played all his life and did not reach the final of the World Table Tennis Championships. Perhaps, when Moregard returns from Houston this time, he will not repeat the courtesy of Fark being regarded as a national hero two years ago, but Moregold is remembered. He is no longer a star player who belongs only to the category of teenagers, but has stepped into the adult hero list.
Although this post-zero Swede is not as tall as Master Person and Master Falk, his facial features are still typical Nordic, with edges and angles. Moregold has long been famous, and the senior Waldner said in a commentary on the final on Swedish national television that he had long said that Moregold would become the world's best top ten player.
Old Watt explains the Houston World Table Tennis Championships
Moregold missed this summer's Tokyo Olympics with injury, but Perlson even abandoned another big player, Carlsson, at the European Championships in order to support him. The reason was: "We have a lot of good players, especially the young Moregold. But Old Pei also said at the time that the World Table Tennis Championships would reuse Carlsson. Karlsson and Falke were also really good, passing through the barriers in Houston, and finally won the men's doubles gold medal that Sweden had been away for more than two decades.
We continue to speak of Moregold. The photos and videos of the competition that Moregold had previously posted on the Internet still looked like some baby faces, which were relatively childish. This time in Houston, Moregold had become a handsome young man. In previous years, the field could not control the emotions, often irritable, angry, wrestling, all kinds of funny and ridiculous expressions layered out, in houston, Moregold overall has undergone a transformation, although there have still been scenes of dropping the racket on the other side's table.
Most importantly, Moregold basically controlled his bad temper at the highest standard world table tennis championships, and played a very high-quality game that needed a strong heart. South Korean Lin Jong-hoon ball is very violent, Koreans are also very tenacious, strong willpower, as a single seedling, Lin Jong-hoon also shoulders the hope of South Korea in Houston; Pol is old and strong, playing a lifetime of ball, only a few top figures in national table tennis can slightly prevail, Moregod These two balls are revived in the downwind state. Being able to grit your teeth and put your opponent to death on the edge of a cliff is not something that ordinary people can do. In Moregård's body, the blood and temperament that flowed were unique to Swedish table tennis.
Many years ago, a Swede named "Waldner" won the world table tennis. He has the most noble temperament in the field of table tennis. He can be called the "king of the ball", can be called the greatest table tennis player, only he is really not afraid of Chinese in his bones. Moregood was hailed as "Waldner's successor," and even Old Wa himself admitted that Moregood resembled himself. Compared with the European style that advocates opening the way with absolute strength, Moregold pays attention to serving and attacking, paying attention to the feel, paying attention to rhythm, and paying attention to winning with ingenuity, which is very much like a small version of "old tile", although it still looks a little childish. However, the old tile is the era of small balls, in the era of 40+ big balls, what can Moregold play the artistic flow of the old tiles? Or whether it can be an art stream will also become a problem.
Moregold won the silver medal in the World Table Tennis Championships, Falke/Carlsson men's doubles won the gold medal, and European and American players defeated many Asian players in Houston, announcing the re-emergence of Swedish table tennis and the revival of European table tennis. Although Moregold's results have a certain relationship with the lottery group, that is, there is an element of luck, but in terms of his performance in Houston, it basically has the world's top ten level.
In 1987, Waldner won the world table tennis championships runner-up at the age of 22, and in 1989, Waldner won the world table tennis championships at the age of 24. Now that Moregold is only 19 years old, what will his future look like? No one can predict it.
But in the end, I want to say one thing: in this world, there is only one Waldner. God is difficult and impossible to replicate. Moregold, trying to perfect himself.
