It could be the great comeback of one of the strongest nations in table tennis, Sweden. Many players compared Truls Moregard with the greatest player of all time, Jan-Ove Waldner. Many players don’t agree with this. They said that Truls Moregard is far from Jan-Ove Waldner. He is a lot of variation, but he needs to learn the behavior from Waldner.
