Recently, several athletes and coaches from the Chinese badminton team have disbanded their fan groups, drawing significant public attention. This move has been widely supported by public opinion, with some netizens asking, "When will the national table tennis team disband their fan groups?" The national table tennis team responded quickly and quietly, with Wang Chuqin dissolving his own fan group. Why did multiple national badminton athletes and Wang Chuqin dissolve their fan groups within a short period of time? This time, there seems to be a consensus among all parties to crack down on the fan circle culture. The last "message" left by the national badminton athletes before dissolving their fan groups On January 14th, at the special meeting on ideological work in the sports bureau system and the governance of the "fan circle" chaos, Gao Zhidan, director and party secretary of the General Administration of Sport, pointed out that the governance of the "fan circle" chaos should be treated as an urgent task to be seized and implemented. Of course, this is not the first time the General Administration of Sport has publicly stated its intention to severely rectify the fan circle culture. As early as May last year, the General Administration of Sport expressed at the national sports publicity and culture conference that the national sports system will resolutely resist the erosion of the distorted "fan circle culture" in the field of sports throughout the process. It was also emphasized at the meeting that the chaos in the "fan circle" is extremely detrimental to the healthy growth of…

Continuing to share my views, I came across an article with pictures where current Japanese table tennis player Ping Ye Meiyu stated that in terms of technique, only Sun Yingsha and Wang Manyu have reached a level in women's table tennis that is beyond reach for others. Here are my thoughts on this statement. I believe their table tennis skills are about the same, but mentally, Sasha is more stable. I think Sasha is like Zhuge Liang, smart in playing, a strategist who remains calm even when the mountains crumble before him; while Manyu is like Zhao Zilong, a general with a variety of martial arts skills. It's not surprising that in competitions between top players, whoever performs better on the spot wins. The key is that Sun Yingsha is indeed superior in skill, and past results also show that compared to Wang Manyu and Chen Meng, Sun Yingsha always wins more than she loses, which is a fact. In the past, when I watched the Macau World Cup, I felt a bit sorry for Wang Manyu. However, after watching yesterday's match, I believe that Sun Yingsha is undoubtedly the world's number one! She is the best iron-blooded singles player, without a doubt! In today's women's table tennis arena, the top-level competition between forehand and backhand skills comes down to on-site performance, seeing who has stronger endurance and willpower to fight until the end. Wang Manyu has a higher win rate against Chen Meng, who has good psychological quality and can compete with Sun Yingsha. I am a fan of…

The 2024 season has come to a close, and during this period, China's sports industry has flourished, achieving remarkable accomplishments. Notably, at the Paris Olympics, China tied with the United States for the most gold medals, setting a new record for the best performance in an overseas Olympic Games. These achievements are the result of the hard work and dedication of Chinese athletes. Recently, the top ten international athletes of 2024 were announced, but surprisingly, Ma Long, the legendary star of the national table tennis team, did not make the list, with only one Chinese athlete being selected. The athlete who made the list is Zheng Qinwen, which sparked heated discussions among netizens. Some questioned why Ma Long, as a key player for the national table tennis team, failed to make the top ten athletes list. This raises questions about whether the selection criteria are based on athletic ability or influence, and what exactly are the standards for international sports awards? Let's take a closer look at the overall performance of both athletes in the 2024 season. Zheng Qinwen reached the finals of six different levels of women's tennis events in 2024, winning three championships and finishing second in three others. Her world ranking reached a new high, placing fifth. Especially at the Paris Olympics, she won the women's singles championship, becoming the first Asian athlete to achieve this honor and creating history. In terms of commercial achievements, Zheng Qinwen earned a staggering $30 million in the 2024 season, making her the highest-paid female athlete globally. Tennis is a mainstream…

Today is a truly heartbreaking news, the once glorious table tennis world, but also to face the storm of high-level changes! Liu Guoliang is likely to lose his position as the director of the Pingyu Center, which is really sighing. As a former national table tennis general, Liu Guoliang not only won countless honors for China on the court, but also an important figure behind the scenes to promote the development of national table tennis and national badminton. Now, with the possible rise of the new headmaster Wang Tao, the field of table tennis and badminton is about to enter a new era. The stay or leave of Liu Guoliang naturally touches the hearts of countless fans. As a championship coach, Liu Guoliang's influence in the field of table tennis is unparalleled. Recent signs show that he is facing pressure from all sides. Perhaps because of some management failures, or because of the strategic adjustments of the new leadership, Liu Guoliang's position is already precarious. Such a situation makes people feel regretful, but also can't help but reflect, as an excellent coach, do you really have to bear such great pressure and responsibility? Wang Tao, as Liu Guoliang's successor, although with a profound background, it is still difficult to escape the doubts from the outside world. As a former table tennis strategist, Wang Tao has achieved many remarkable achievements. Whether he can quickly adapt to the new position and lead Chinese table tennis to meet new challenges remains to be seen. After all, the work of the Pingyu Center is…

Cracked the Case! Why Does Liu Guoliang Favor Sun Yingsha? Understanding Her Relationship with Wang Chuqin Reveals the Secret Recently, everyone has been discussing Liu Guoliang's preference for Sun Yingsha. I've been thinking about it for a while and finally figured out the reason. Speaking of Sun Yingsha, she is truly the queen of our table tennis world! Look at her performance in the Paris Olympics, whether in singles or mixed doubles, her level is simply amazing. Her heroic appearance and her ball style that sweeps like a rainbow have made everyone admire her. You know, to perform so outstandingly in such a big competition is not something just anyone can do. Let's talk about her partnership with Wang Chuqin, which is even more eye-catching. Look at them in the mixed doubles match, their cooperation is so perfect, they are simply a match made in heaven! Sun Yingsha is already a master herself, and with Wang Chuqin, this formidable opponent, when opponents see the two of them standing in front of the table, their legs probably go weak. This pair, whether attacking or defending, performs flawlessly, and finally work together to advance all the way to the championship. How could such a super combination not be valued by Coach Liu? Do you remember the quarterfinals of the mixed doubles event at the Paris Olympics? That game was really suspenseful! Facing the strong attack of the Korean team, the two of them were once in trouble and even overtaken in points by their opponents. Seeing that the situation was not good,…

Recently, the table tennis circle has been quite lively. The General Administration of Sport has spoken up, and the People's Daily has also expressed its stance. This situation feels more tense than an Olympic final! Wang Chuqin has taken the lead in disbanding his fan group. What's going on here? Is there a big problem with the "fan circle" of table tennis? Let's talk about this "fan circle" thing first. Indeed, some fans are crazy for their idols! They chase after athletes all over the world, shout loudly at the competition site, and even attack other athletes. This picture is a bit scary to think about. Guess who it affects? That's right, it's our national table tennis players. They already have enough hard work training and competing, and they also have to deal with these "enthusiastic" fans. If something else happens and affects the competition results, it will be a big trouble! This time, the General Administration of Sport is serious, directly naming to rectify the "fan circle" culture of table tennis, which is not a joke. The People's Daily has also spoken out, saying that athletes should focus on competitions and not engage in flashy marketing. The national badminton team has responded to the call, disbanded the fan group, and said goodbye to the "fan circle" completely! What does this mean? It means that this rectification is serious! With an iron fist to control chaos, this boldness, we must give a thumbs up! As for Wang Chuqin, he quickly disbanded the fan group, which was wise. After all, his…

WTT Report! Tomokazu Harimoto Shaves His Head, Chen Yuanyu Sweeps the Dark Horse 3-0, Singles Finals Matchups Revealed At 1:17 am Beijing time on January 17th, 2025, the WTT regular challenge match in Masqat continued. Both the men's singles and women's singles played two rounds, and the women's singles final seats have been produced. Kuaiman defeated Daito Satsuki, Shi Xunyao defeated teammate Tan Yuxuan, and the national table tennis team has locked in the women's singles championship in advance. In the men's singles semi-finals, the first to play is the young national table tennis player Chen Yuanyu, who faced Guo Guanhong, a younger player from Chinese Taipei. This 16-year-old player previously defeated Xiang Peng and performed well, becoming the dark horse of the men's singles at this station. Guo Guanhong started very aggressively with a 4-1 lead, but Chen Yuanyu did not handle the reception well. However, he quickly tied the score at 5-5, made a decisive serve and attack, and after a tussle to 8-8, Chen Yuanyu's connection speed was fast and of high quality, winning 11-8. In the second set, both sides started with a 3-3 tie. Chen Yuanyu controlled his serve well, while Guo Guanhong played actively, adding power and quality to his forehand and backhand. The middle of the game was 5-5, and the battle was fierce all the way. Chen Yuanyu ended the set at 9-7, making firm shots and relatively advantageous rallies, winning again 11-8. In the third set, Chen Yuanyu made an attacking error and trailed 2-4. Later, he scored through attacks, maintaining…

Recently, the sports news has been incredibly lively! A revelation from journalist He Xiaolong has directly pushed the Table Tennis and Badminton Center into the limelight. It's said that Wang Tao is about to take over as director! As soon as this news came out, many people began to speculate whether Liu Guoliang was going to be "out of office"? Even more attention-grabbing is whether this might mean a greater chance for Fan Zhendong to return to the national table tennis team? First, don't get too excited yet. We need to clarify that this Wang Tao is not the familiar legendary Wang Tao from the national table tennis team; she is the director of the Handball and Baseball Softball Center, a strong woman! It's said that she led her team to achieve good results at the Paris Olympics, which is a solid "record of military exploits"! So, what changes will this new director bring to the national table tennis team? That's really hard to say. In my opinion, the most critical issue here is the relationship between the Table Tennis and Badminton Center and the Table Tennis Association. You may not know, but the Table Tennis Association has been quite "independent" in recent years, with a somewhat "dysfunctional" relationship with the Table Tennis and Badminton Center. Think about it, the charter of the Badminton Association always mentions the superior administrative organ, but the charter of the Table Tennis Association is quite "domineering," as if to say: I am the boss, no one can manage me! Therefore, if Wang Tao really…

The 2025 WTT Doha Star Challenge has become a shining gem among many sports events, with top players from various countries gathering in this mysterious city to present one visual feast after another for the audience. The atmosphere of the competition is tense and intense, with the athletes giving their all on the court, occasionally flashing moments of brilliance and suspense that makes one hold their breath, as if the entire arena can feel their fighting spirit. On the women's singles court, surprisingly, none of the top four players are seeded players. Such a situation is very rare in previous competitions, and it has sparked a heated discussion among the audience. Each match is a fierce battle, with the athletes not only playing against each other but also contending with their inner tension. Those considered "dark horses" have gradually won the hearts of the audience, starting from obscurity. Their performances further prove the truth that "the court is like a battlefield," and whoever can seize the opportunity at the critical moment can make waves. The men's singles part is equally exciting. Several national team representatives are vying for every point on the court, with the suspense hanging over the players' hearts like a sharp blade. When the game enters the decisive set, all eyes focus on every collision between the server and the receiver. Every serve is an expression of intent, and every return is a hope for salvation. Victory or defeat lies in a single thought, and the audience's mood rises and falls with the flight of the ball.…

On January 16th, Beijing time, the men's singles quarter-finals of the WTT Mascate regular challenge match took place. The most anticipated match was between Huang Youzheng and Japan's top player, Tomokazu Harimoto. In this match, Huang Youzheng fought hard for four sets but lost 1-3 to Harimoto, failing to reach the semi-finals. In the WTT system, the level of a regular challenge match is just above that of a branch match, with neither high points nor significant bonuses. Therefore, the national table tennis team did not send their main players to participate, instead providing an opportunity for second-line young players to train. Born in 2005, Huang Youzheng is one of the key young players being cultivated by the national table tennis team. He also plays with a left-handed horizontal grip and has won consecutive championships at the National Games, World Youth Championships, and China Table Tennis Super League over the past year. However, on the WTT stage, he has yet to achieve a representative performance. Previously, at the Doha Star Match, he lost in the men's singles to Qiu Dang and failed to reach the quarter-finals, while winning the runner-up in mixed doubles with Shi Xunyao. On the other hand, Harimoto was the men's singles champion at the Doha Star Match and is also the main opponent of the national table tennis team during the Los Angeles cycle. Huang Youzheng must defeat Harimoto if he wants to compete for a main position. The first set was very tense and fierce, with Huang Youzheng showing great tenacity. When Harimoto was leading…
