Updated Chen Weixing bios
|
Chen Weixing of Austria
| |
|
We love Chen Weixing's style of play. It almost seems erratic at times, and yet he
has mastered so many parts of the game. He can do it all it seems; a counter, then a chop, then
flips his paddle and backhand loops. He really is fun to watch because you never know what he'll do next.
With Chen you get a lot of variety!
