Adam vs. French Champion

- [Adam] Simon Gauzy. The legend from France. He started playing table tennis for the French national team when he was only 13 years old. His best win came in 2019 when he beat the world number two at the time, Xu Xin, from China, at the World Championships. Simon was responsible for the first non-all-Chinese finals since 2003. Simon is a three time French national champion and a silver medalist at the European Championships. His best world ranking is world number eight and currently he's representing France in major table tennis events. And today I'm gonna challenge him to a best of five match. Since he's way outta my league I'm gonna start the first game with the seven point lead. If he wins the first game, I'll start the next game with an eight zero lead. And if I win, I'll start the next game with a six zero lead, and so on. The first player to win three games wins the match. - Before we start, I would like to show you the equipment I'm playing with. As for the rubbers, I'm using the Rasanter C53 on both sides. I'm also using an Andro carbon blade. So let the games begin. (determining serve) Receive! (First player to win 3 games... WINS!) - [Adam] Nice. - [Simon] Oh sorry. - [Adam] It's okay. (so much underspin) - [Adam] Ah, this is good! - Incredible. What a scrapper. What a save. - I'm very, very lucky. - [Adam] Ay. - That was close. - [Adam] Good. - Yes it is. - [Simon] Oh. Come on. - Game point. - [Adam] Oh. - Professional athletes, night and day. Got one. I don't have many options but I have to think, what can I do? What can I do? - [Adam] Were you ready? - [Simon] Yes, always, unfortunately for you. - [Adam] Ahh. - [Simon] Ooh. Combination. Come on. - [Adam] Oh man. - I can't believe you just did that. - Beautiful. - [Simon] What? - [Adam] Cho! - That shot was crazy. - Game point. - That is so spinny. - Game point. (2-handed backhand) - [Adam] Oh. - You good? - So so. - Game point. - I almost missed it. - Damn. - Deuce. - Game point. - Deuce. - [Adam] Oh, so good. - Game point. - [Simon] Ah. - [Simon] We're done. Look at that spin. - It's incredible. I feel like he's only giving me 70% when he attacks. So much spin. So fast. - [Adam] No. - Hoy-ya. - Huh? What happened? - [Pre-Recorded Sample] Game point. - [Adam] Ah good. - Game point. - Clever. - Mission failed. - Game point. - [Adam] Nice. - We have a lift-off. - Game point. - [Adam] Oh. - Game point. - Slow. Down. - We're talking light speed, light speed here. - And yes, we are allowed to go around the net. - Game point. - Ah. - Game point. - [Adam] Yes. - Won the seven zero down, won the eight zero down. Lost the nine zero. That's tough. Not allowed too many mistakes. But I'm gonna do this. Let's do this. - [Simon] Ah. - Ah. - [Adam] Whoa. - Wow. - I've got an edge on my side. (hand switch) - No. (chop-block) - Oh man. - What an incredible shot this is. - Hoy-ya. - Match point. - Got the snake man with a snake. - Great match. - Such a nice guy, Adam. So nice to play with you. - Amazing feeling, amazing power, amazing everything. I love watching you play. - Thank you. I took inspiration on your snakes. I took inspiration. - Amazing, man. Truly amazing. Wow, that was crazy. I was only able to win one game and that was with a nine point lead. Simon is simply awesome, and his presence of mind in the matches is on another level. I wish him all the best in the future, and in his life and everything that he does. - I'm subscribed to Adam's channel.
