What does it take to forge a lasting career at the top level of Table Tennis?This week on Serving Up Trouble, we’re joined by Swedish table tennis legend Matilda Ekholm, a player with 17 Swedish national titles, four European Championship medals and a peak world ranking of 20.Matilda talks honestly about her career, from being overlooked as a junior and becoming an unlikely underdog, to competing around the world and beating world No. 4 in front of a home crowd.We also get into her return to Major League Table Tennis, why she prefers team events to individual competition and what makes the MLTT format so exciting.Plus, Matilda shares some brilliant insight into her playing style, why she deliberately tries to be “awkward” to play against, her approach to longevity and injury, and why she has no intention of simply dropping down the levels.A fascinating conversation with one of the most unorthodox players in the game.🎧 Serving Up Trouble is the podcast about everything women's table tennis, from the biggest tournaments and players to the stories, personalities and issues shaping the women's game.If you enjoy the episode, like, subscribe and turn on notifications so you don't miss the next one.#TableTennis #majorleaguestabletennis #WomensTableTennis #PingPong #TableTennisPodcast #ServingUpTrouble
