Chen Meng has officially withdrawn from the WTT world rankings, and she is not the first to announce her withdrawal; Fan Zhendong had already done so before her. Why did they withdraw from the world rankings? Simply put, WTT has introduced new regulations that not only assign a score of 0 for missing a match but also impose fines. For someone like Chen Meng, with her world ranking, missing a single match incurs a penalty of $5,000. Such hefty fines have left Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng feeling unable to bear the cost, as both were still recovering from their participation in the recently concluded Paris Olympics and were not yet physically prepared for competition. As a result, they had no choice but to withdraw from the world rankings; otherwise, they would face significant financial penalties for each missed event. Chen Meng and Fan Zhendong have both expressed their inability to shoulder the fines, which has drawn attention from many fans to the prize money earned by table tennis athletes. Taking Chen Meng as an example, who has withdrawn, how much is her annual WTT prize money? Unlike tennis, where prize money can easily reach hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars, the highest prize money for the women's singles champion at the WTT annual finals is just 40,000,whichisthehighestsingleprizemoneythroughouttheyear.Othergrandslameventsoffer40,000, which is the highest single prize money throughout the year.

Recently, the Chinese National Table Tennis Team has been trending on hot searches due to the withdrawal of Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng, attracting widespread attention and heated discussion. The exit of these two top players appears to be for personal reasons, but in reality, it has brought to light a series of complex issues, with the most notable being the doubts surrounding Liu Guoliang as the head of WTT and chairman of the Table Tennis Association. The direct reason for Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng's withdrawal is the new regulations introduced by WTT, which stipulate that players who do not participate in competitions will face a fine of $5,000 each time. For athletes like Chen Meng, after deducting various expenses from their hard-earned income over a year, there is hardly anything left, making it impossible for them to bear such high fines. Therefore, they chose to withdraw from the competition to avoid financial losses. However, this decision has plunged Liu Guoliang into a whirlpool of public opinion. As the head of WTT and chairman of the Table Tennis Association, Liu Guoliang undoubtedly bears an inescapable responsibility for the introduction of the new rules. This has led many fans to question his decisions, with some even believing that he is forcing Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng into retirement. With the continuous fermentation of public opinion, Liu Guoliang has faced unprecedented pressure, and rumors have emerged that he may resign as chairman of the Table Tennis Association. Faced with such doubts and rumors, Liu Guoliang's future is indeed full of uncertainty.…

Recently, Fan Zhendong openly expressed his dissatisfaction with the new rules of WTT, drawing widespread attention from Chinese fans. Unable to bear the new rule that fines athletes for not participating in competitions, Fan Zhendong chose to withdraw from the world rankings but will not retire! This means that he will still participate in domestic competitions in the future, but he will definitely not play in international competitions. Why did he choose to withdraw from the international rankings? Because WTT is purely profiting from the health of the athletes, with an overly dense schedule and punishment for non-participation, which is very unfair to the athletes! The current chairman of WTT is Liu Guoliang, who has pushed for a commercial nature of the competition system under WTT that scores higher than the nine major events, forcing athletes who want to obtain international rankings to frequently compete, willingly exploited by WTT. Of course, if Liu Guoliang's only significant initiative was the reform of WTT, it might not have been enough to make Fan Zhendong decide to quit. The real catalyst for Fan Zhendong's split with Liu Guoliang is actually the fan culture surrounding the national table tennis team! In the past, Liu Guoliang promoted the fan culture of the national table tennis team mainly to promote table tennis! After all, table tennis is a niche sport with limited commercial value worldwide; since it is difficult to break through offline, they turned to online platforms, using short videos to market various topics, creating personal IPs for athletes, and thus gaining more attention for…

In the vast landscape of sports, the national table tennis team has always been an undisputed and brilliant landmark, shining brightly for a long time, carrying the heavy pride and eager expectations of the people. Liu Guoliang is even more of a pivotal leader in the journey of the national table tennis team. Over the years, he has led the national table tennis giant ship to break through the waves and won countless glories. However, recently, a rumor about Liu Guoliang's "dismissal" has emerged like a sudden storm, causing a great stir in the sports world, making the hearts of fans instantly tighten and full of worry. He Xiaolong's groundless "provocation" Speaking of this matter, it is impossible to bypass the sports media person who caused a stir in the sports public opinion field - He Xiaolong. This person has really "stolen the limelight" recently, but behind this limelight, the controversy is so strong that it cannot be dissolved. He is like a "critic" holding a sharp blade and recklessly rushing around in the field of national table tennis, firing everywhere. As soon as the Paris Olympic Games table tennis event ended, He Xiaolong couldn't wait to come out. The women's singles competition was settled, and Chen Meng won the Olympic singles gold medal after a fierce battle. This should have been something worth celebrating nationwide, but in He Xiaolong's mouth, it changed its flavor. He repeatedly posted articles, all of which were full of doubts about the gold content of Chen Meng's championship. He also insinuated maliciously that Chen…

Focus on sports news and pay attention to the inside and outside of the stadium.‌ Recently, the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF) announced a series of new penalty regulations targeting non-participating players, which immediately sparked extensive discussions and attention in the table tennis world. Among them, Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng, two leading figures in the national table tennis team and Paris Olympic men's and women's singles champions, both expressed strong dissatisfaction with this and officially announced their withdrawal from the world rankings, taking concrete action to challenge the new ITTF regulations. The actions of Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng immediately caused a stir among fans and the media. As we all know, Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng are both pillar players in today's national table tennis team, representing the top male and female singles players respectively. Fan Zhendong became another Grand Slam winner after Ma Long at the Paris Olympics, while Chen Meng completed the feat of winning two consecutive Olympic women's singles titles, becoming the third female player to do so after Deng Yaping and Zhang Yining, and her historical status has also rapidly risen. Some fans believe that despite not yet being a Grand Slam winner, Chen Meng's honor of winning two consecutive Olympic singles titles is enough to overshadow everything, and her status in the history of women's table tennis is enough to rank in the top five or even top three. Indeed, for table tennis, the Olympic singles champion is the ultimate goal and the most important honor. In comparison, the weight of the World…

Did the Capitalists' Cake Get Disturbed? The Reason Behind the National Table Tennis Coaching Team's "Black Faces" Has Been Found, and Yili Officially Apologizes!‌ The victory of Chen Meng should have been a cause for national celebration. However, the national table tennis coaching team collectively wore "black faces," and the audience was filled with boos. Actor Huang Xiaoming posted to celebrate his cousin's victory, but was met with anger in the comments section by Tang Yafei. Even the national brand Yili came forward to apologize... What exactly has disturbed someone's "cake"? As events unfolded, what is the truth? This Olympics seemed to have embarrassed many people, as several promising athletes did not perform at their best. In the women's singles final, even the seemingly invincible Sha Sha lost to Chen Meng. However, the significance of who wins or loses this match is minimal, as both athletes are excellent and from China. Yet, when Chen Meng defeated Sha Sha, it seemed that everyone took sides, all calling for justice for Sha Sha. It was discovered that after Chen Meng's victory, the smiles on many people's faces disappeared. Moreover, the audience booed, and some even made unfriendly gestures to "praise" our champion. Even during Chen Meng's award ceremony, the crowd continued to chant Sha Sha's name, with some calling for a "withdrawal." It was as if the match hadn't even started, yet everyone had already decided in their hearts that Sha Sha would be the champion. Therefore, when they saw Chen Meng win and things didn't go as expected, they collectively broke…

Fan Zhendong Doesn't Put Up with You! Publicly Exposes WTT Official Lies, Dare to Act but Not Own Up? Directly Confronts Them Beijing time on December 29th, Fan Zhendong is too domineering. He has decided to stand his ground and publicly expose the lies of the WTT officials, no longer giving them any face. This is the confidence of a super Grand Slam champion. After Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng withdrew from the world rankings, WTT specially issued a lengthy announcement late at night, using six points to respond and explain Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng's withdrawal. One point they made very clear was that this so-called rule of penalizing players for not participating in events is not a new rule; it has already existed for a long time. The reason they imposed such high fines is to ensure that top players participate in their top-tier events, which is an explanation to sponsors, advertisers, and fans. However, after they said this, Fan Zhendong did not remain silent and continued to post hard-hitting responses, exposing their lies. Fan Zhendong posted the following in the comment section: he had carefully read the WTT statement. Therefore, adhering to the principles of rigor and respect for international organizations, he wanted to add a few points. Firstly, regarding the content of the WTT official penalizing non-participating players, he does not know when it appeared, as he had never been officially notified of fines for withdrawing from events before. If you say this rule has been in place for four years, why wasn't he notified about…

Introduction The casino never turns defeat into victory, only deeper and deeper! Many years ago, Liu Guoliang and Kong Linghui created the "Twin Stars" era of national table tennis, especially Kong Linghui, who swept the international stage with absolute strength, stunning the world with his exquisite ball skills. He was even called the "Prince of Table Tennis" by the audience, and at his peak, he was full of glory, surrounded by praise and flowers. But he himself dragged himself step by step into the quagmire of "scandal", and when he realized it, everything had already settled. Huge loans, "unbearable news" from his ex-girlfriend, it seems that the voices from the outside world want to kill this so-called "prince". Years later, when people think of him again, what kind of ending has he received? "Born with a Table Tennis Saint Body" The relationship between Kong Linghui and table tennis seems to be destined by nature. His father was originally a coach, under the discipline of his elders, he was like a wild horse running away, and at the age of only ten, he rushed into the provincial team, and later shone brilliantly in various international competitions. Sometimes, geniuses are shining, outstanding achievements made Coach Cai Zhenhua see the potential in this child. Although geniuses are rare, they are also the most uncontrollable, and Kong Linghui is one of those who do not want to be restrained. He has been a "naughty demon king" since childhood, and his personality is stubborn, as long as he thinks it is his own, no one…

Fan Zhendong Confirms Withdrawal, Fans Change Their Nickname for Him, Signals That Liu Guoliang Should Savor Fan Zhendong has confirmed his withdrawal, prompting fans to change their nickname for him, a signal that Liu Guoliang should carefully consider. Netizens have keenly pointed out that rankings no longer hold significance for Fan Zhendong, as the International Table Tennis Federation's lack of empathy and disregard for the athletes' actual circumstances led to a rigid decision. If athletes were to prioritize rankings over their health by forcing themselves to compete, it could result in severe physical damage, which would be detrimental to both the table tennis world and the athletes themselves. The title of Top Ten Athletes was awarded to Ma Long, which may have been the final straw for Fan Zhendong, known affectionately as "Little Fatty." While Ma Long is undoubtedly a legendary figure in the sport, this year was meant to be Fan Zhendong's time to shine. Do you recall the interview with silver medalist Moregad after the Paris Olympics, where he expressed his wish for Fan Zhendong to be happier? In essence, table tennis lacks widespread popularity and financial incentives. Observing tennis, where substantial earnings encourage participation, substitutes are always ready to step in if an athlete cannot compete. The fines might not be the primary issue; rather, the psychological toll of being overlooked seems more significant. Fan Zhendong might be using this as a form of protest. The complexities of table tennis have deepened, making us appreciate Ma Long's prowess even more. Fan Zhendong no longer needs rankings to…

Please be aware that references and screenshots are marked in the text. Introduction: Table tennis has always been a hot topic in our country, with people constantly paying attention to it. We have many excellent table tennis players who compete fiercely with each other. Among them, Wang Tianyi, as a practice partner for Sha Sha, unexpectedly became popular at the Paris Olympics due to her high looks. Wang Tianyi's Biography: When mentioning table tennis, most people would think of names like Sha Sha and Big Fat, perhaps not knowing much about her. Born in 2002, Wang Tianyi developed a liking for table tennis while accompanying her brother during practice. At the time, Wang Tianyi was in poor health, so her parents believed that engaging in sports would benefit her, and thus sent her to train in table tennis as well. By the age of fourteen, she had already won the runner-up title at the National Youth Table Tennis Championships, which caught the attention of the national team, allowing her to join the second-tier national table tennis team. Upon joining the national team, the level of competition intensified even more than when she was with the Luneng Ping Pong Team. However, Wang Tianyi remained diligent, stating that she would train harder, focusing all her attention on table tennis to continuously improve her…
