Well, although Timothee’s character Marty Mauser’s mannerism and spirit arc have been drawn inspiration from Marty Reisman, ultimately the storyline will not have exact similarities to the athlete’s life. It will be a fictional one. However, in his 2012 obituary, Reisman was described as “a wizard at table tennis, the sport in which he captured national championships, won and lost fortunes, and moved crowds to laughter” by The New York Times. From 1946 to 2022, he won 22 titles, as stated by the same report.
