At eleven years old, he's become accustomed to defeating adults. What seems extraordinary is now normal in the life of young Ladimir Mayorov, a TT Cassà paddler who has just made history. Mayorov, world number 1 in the under-thirteen category, has been crowned Spanish junior table tennis champion in La Nucía (Alicante). The player, who lives in Calella, should be competing in tournaments in the junior category, given his age. But he realized some time ago that he could face older players, so he asked not to play in these championships as a junior. Nor as a child. Nor as a cadet. He wanted to do it in the junior category. And so it was, and in fact, he won, defeating older players along the way. In the final, Mayorov defeated Andalusian Martin Reche by three sets to zero. A young player who defeats boys of seventeen, eighteen, and nineteen.
