The first-ever Waldner Cup, named after Swedish legendary player Jan-Ove Waldner, is underway in Oslo, Norway. Gathering the world’s top seed players, including Ma Long and Chen Meng from China, the event aims not only for professional competitions, but also for introducing the sport to more people.

On Friday, before the matches began, CGTN Europe sat down with Waldner in an exclusive interview to discuss the event and his expectations for it.
