Tiger Play Ping-pong

When we say that the sizes of Ping-pong and golf ball are similar, brother ball, let us imagine that if Tiger Woods engages in Table Tennis, can he also be winner for using the skill of golf? It is a controversial question. Let us view it from the following questions and you will get the answer by yourself.

Do you think top ping-pong players are more athletic than top golfers?
Yes, top ping-pong players are more athletic than the top golf players. Apart from a couple of notable exceptions such as Csilla Batorfi of Hungary, elite table tennis players are lean and quick as cats, with good stamina thrown in. Golf is a sport, and a good one, but in terms of sheer athleticism, it's not even close. Although someone like Tiger is obviously in good shape too!

If Tiger devoted himself to ping-pong in the same way he devoted himself to golf, could he be a world-class player?

Tiger as a world-class player? Maybe, if he started at the same age he started golf! Seriously though, the competition at the top of table tennis is just as fierce as the top of golf. Only the best of the best ever make it to world class. Tiger obviously has athleticism and world class dedication, but has he got world class table tennis talent? Unlikely. So no, the odds would be against him.

How bad would the top table tennis players beat him?

Really badly. The table players are talking lucky to get a point or two here. Think about the skill it takes to hit a drive 300 yards down the middle of the fairway - now imagine you've got to try to do that to a target that's spinning at a huge number of rpm's and moving at high speed to an unpredictable location. Then do it again and again. That's the difference between basement ping-pong and table tennis.

The gap between the top player (like Tiger) and the advanced Ping-pong amateur is huge. It's like putting a 24 handicapper up against a scratch player - the 24 handicapper can play a bit and might hit a lucky shot or two but would  not bet on over 18 holes.

Can you get the answer? The winner of golf and the champion of table tennis are almost are different people exception  Csilla Batorfi of Hungary, so there are mre elite in the world but be one in all fields. So you  should  not upset you have no talent for golf, you may be a champion in table tennis.
