It's amazing that on the women's side there are no non-Asians in the top 20. Even those listed as representing other countries are Asian players. And on the men's side, neither Timo Boll nor Vladimir Samsonov are young. The domination by the Chinese only looks to get stronger in the near future.


Maybe a few more major rule changes will change that. *sarcasm* Maybe the United States will rise one of these days....I'm hopeful. Or maybe the English....they dominated back in the 60's or so didn't they? Maybe the olympics being held in London will kick them back into action.

Or maybe the Olympics in Beijing 2008 has opened the eyes of more Chinese players to try harder?
Ive always thought that Chinese women (origin) dominate Table Tennis like no other sport its quite an amazing thing realy

The main thing I don't like about this rating system is how inactive players seem to come back in roughly where they were, In Tennis when one of the Williams girls didn't play for 6 months (often over the past 3 years) they were calculated as say....128 -160 in the World
To me it seems harder to get out of the top 20-30 than get in lol
