Career

The parent club Groths in Denmark was BTK Vedbæk on Zealand , where he played with Kasper Sternberg , among others . With this he won the silver medal at the European Championship 2010 after a defeat in the final against the four-time European champions Timo Boll / Christian Süß (0: 4). In the same year he was already Junior European Champion in doubles with Hunor Janos Szocs from Romania.

Jonathan Groth has been playing in Germany since 2011. Coming from BTK Vedbæk, he played with TTC Schwalbe Bergneustadt in the 2nd Bundesliga North in the 2011/12 season , then moved to TTC RhönSprudel Fulda-Maberzell , where he was in the 2nd team in the Regionalliga, and closed In 2013 he joined the then Bundesliga promoted TTC Hagen . In the 2014/15 season he played for TTC Grenzau , then for TTC RhönSprudel Fulda-Maberzell. From 2012 to 2016 he was five times Danish champion in singles.

After the European Championships in 2015, he moved into the top 100 in the world rankings for the first time and was able to improve further in the months that followed. In the Bundesliga, with a score of 13: 5, he helped Fulda take over the championship lead on the last day of the match. With the end of Michael Maze's career , he also became the best-placed Danish player in the world rankings in March 2016, after having previously held this position during Maze's periods of inactivity. In April he qualified for the Olympic Games after several victories over favored opponents . There he came under the last 32, where he was eliminated against the reigning world champion and later gold medalist Ma Long , and as a result reached a new record in the world rankings with number 27. At the European Championships in 2016 he won the gold medal in doubles with Patrick Franziska , and in singles he reached the round of 16, which he lost 3: 4 to Timo Boll . He also played successfully with Patrick Franziska on the World Tour in 2016 , where they qualified in doubles with two gold and two bronze medals for the Grand Finals, but could not compete there due to Franziska's injury. In 2017 they qualified again, but were eliminated in the first round.

In the Europe Top 16 2018 , Groth reached 3rd place and qualified for the first time for the World Cup, in which he reached the main round and was eliminated from Kōki Niwa . He was also able to qualify again for the Grand Finals 2018 in doubles with Franziska - they had also won bronze at the European Championships during the course of the year - but did not take part for financial reasons.
