Why does Timo Boll stand really low and stretched when he is in the ready position compared to other players such as Ma Long or Fan Zhendong?

Hi Gerard,

It is a way to get his legs activated early in the rally.

Each player has their personal preference in how they get themselves moving early in the rally.
