Table Tennis is the sport of champions, or at least that’s what my mum tells me…
Invented on the dining tables of Victorian England, Table Tennis picked up various names from Whiff-Whaff to Ping Pong. The name Table Tennis however, was soon chosen due to the threatened legal action from the owners of the Ping Pong trademark.
Despite it’s Anglo-centric origins, Table Tennis is the national sport of China. The Chinese have dominated the world rankings for decades, winning 116 out of 138 championship titles since 1981. Total domination.
