The trouble with team sports is that there’s often only room for one star. A Zlatan Ibrahimovic, a Victoria Smith, a Foppa. The other players pass it forward, defend and run their butts off without getting half as much cred as the superstar on the team.
What’s boring about individual sports is that you usually play them one on one. The others just get to stand and watch. One can easily become tired of his opponent and the way they wipe the sweat of their forehead.
In table tennis it is all against all. It is an individual sport - but in groups. You can shine and keep yourself in the game till the end. You can invite everyone you know. And if Zlatan decides to show up the rest of the participants can decide to crush him together.
