I am a ping-pong enthusiast myself and spend endless time playing it. So, I loved reading this article. Was this competition for entire MS or just some small division. I am wondering where the chinese players are :-) We have some in our office who love to show off their pen-hold. Curiously, the best player in my office is a dutch...
- wapz 9y agoI used to use penhold because I thought it was cool and my serves were good. Then I learned from a competitive player (~1600 rating in whatever US rating system they had iirc; not too high), switched to shakehand and never looked back!

- jkuria 9y agoThe op here. There were Chinese players in the tournament but fortunately for us, of only average skill. I entered the GeekWire ping-pong tournament in Seattle earlier in the year and got destroyed by some highly skilled Chinese 'Asian Tigers'.
- ido 9y agoMay I humbly ask what was so enjoyable about this article? It's fairly short and as far as i can tell almost entirely devoid of content (the moral seems to be that Satya is a nice & humble manager?)
- UweSchmidt 9y agoThe article may appeal to a ping pong player as it describes a moment when the abstract, specific niche skill finally counts on the big stage of life :)
