Ma Lin –
Olympic Champion
Already as a junior player Ma Lin chose to play Yasaka.
Ma Lin is the only male player in history who has won the Olympic Gold Medal in singles, doubles and team.
MA LIN, has during his International carreer played with a Yasaka blade and Mark V rubber on the backhand side. When MA LIN was a very young player, the top Chinese men players had quite a hard time against the best foreign players, especially the Swedish stars. MA LIN and his coaches studied the games very careful, and decided that MA has to develop a better backhand play than other pen holders, to be able to reach the really World top level.
With the rubber MARK V, fast and powerful but with outstanding balance, MA developed a backhand, not only good in blocking, but extremely dangerous in attacking. Already in 1999 , when MA LIN made his international break through as runner-up in men’s single in the World Championships, his backhand side was a sensation.
