Everyone has been paying attention to the latest news from the national table tennis winter training camp! The three main players, Wang Chuqin, Sun Yingsha, and Wang Manyu, have all spoken up, and Liu Guoliang has also shared important information. This winter training is not only for preparing for the upcoming World Table Tennis Championships and World Cup but also to lay a solid foundation for the Los Angeles Olympic cycle. Wang Chuqin: Focused and Diligent, Aiming for Better Performance in the New Season Under the sunshine of Hainan, Wang Chuqin is undergoing intense training. He describes his current training state as "focused and diligent." With the help of coaches Wang Hao and Xiao Zhan, his skills are steadily improving. Wang Chuqin expressed that he hopes to take advantage of this winter training to accumulate strength and strive for more outstanding performances in the new season. It seems that Little Fat has high expectations for himself! As the backbone of the men's team, his progress is crucial for the entire team. We hope he can maintain good form in the upcoming competitions and bring glory to the national table tennis team! Sun Yingsha: Winter Training is an Opportunity to Enrich Oneself, Preparing for the New Season Sun Yingsha is also looking forward to this winter training. She sees it as a precious opportunity to "enrich herself" and wants to be well-prepared for the challenges of the new season. Especially on the international stage, she hopes to present a more convincing performance. Sha Sha has always been a hardworking girl, and…

In the tropical sunshine of Wanning, Hainan, a remarkable reunion is taking place at the national table tennis training base. When Coach Xiao Zhan's figure reappears beside Wang Manyu, it's as if a sealed chapter from the past has been reopened, evoking memories of their deep mentor-student bond. At this moment, the national table tennis team is experiencing a critical period of generational transition. With Chen Meng, Ma Long, and Fan Zhendong successively retiring from world rankings, a new era is quietly unfolding. In this cycle of change, Wang Manyu is undoubtedly one of the most prominent focal points. Speaking of Wang Manyu, her unique "masculine playing style" cannot be overlooked. On the court, she is like a young cheetah, with fierce attacks and exceptional explosive power, making many opponents wary. During the Paris Olympic cycle, she emerged as a dark horse, galloping forward and winning women's singles titles multiple times in world competitions, successfully joining the ranks of the national table tennis women's team's "three chariots." However, behind this seemingly smooth journey lies a question that fans are deeply concerned about: who will become Wang Manyu's new head coach? Since Xiao Zhan stepped down in 2022, this question has remained a mystery. The original divisional coach Xu Hui switched to youth training, leaving Wang Manyu in a state of "lack of guidance" for a time. Interestingly, life is always full of drama. Just as people were speculating that Sun Xun would take over, an unexpected figure appeared on the training ground in Wanning - Wang Manyu's mentor, Xiao Zhan.…

In the annals of Chinese table tennis, there exists an amusing phenomenon that tickles the fancy: sometimes, the person who most resembles you isn't necessarily your own protégé. Indeed, a recent revelation has left fans utterly captivated, vividly illustrating this intriguing occurrence. When it comes to Coach Xiao Zhan, seasoned table tennis enthusiasts are well aware that he is a legendary figure with a "tiger" aura. Whether in his heyday as a formidable player or later in his distinctive coaching career, he has left an indelible impression of being "dominant and powerful." He's like a majestic tiger, exuding an awe-inspiring presence that strikes fear into opponents while harboring profound tactical wisdom. Logically speaking, Wang Manyu, who trained under such a "tiger coach" for a full five years, should be the one who best embodies his teachings. However, fate loves to play tricks. At the 2024 Table Tennis Super League, an unexpected scene stunned all the fans: the person whose demeanor, playing style, and even expressions were uncannily similar to Xiao Zhan turned out to be Sun Yingsha! The finals of this Table Tennis Super League were nothing short of a brilliant "inheritance drama." When Sun Yingsha stood on the sidelines as a temporary coach, her strategic dominance and unshakable confidence were reminiscent of a younger Xiao Zhan. It's worth noting that Sun Yingsha had never been formally coached by Xiao Zhan, making this resemblance all the more remarkable, akin to the saying "birds of a feather flock together." What's even more astonishing is a moment from the match. In the…

At the Paris Olympics award ceremony, Wang Manyu held up her gold medal, but what caught the attention of the camera was not her family or teammates, but her old coach Xu Hui. Standing in the corner of the crowd, Xu Hui appeared particularly "lonely." Amidst the festive atmosphere, he had no special interaction with Wang Manyu, not even a photo together. We have to admit that Xu Hui's awkward situation made many people feel something was off. Everyone knows that Wang Manyu and Xu Hui have been working together for years, leading her from a young player to become a world-class table tennis champion. Every time Wang Manyu competed, Xu Hui could be seen guiding and encouraging her on the sidelines, with a tacit understanding like old partners. So what exactly is behind Xu Hui's "departure"? Honestly, the reason behind this is not complicated. Xu Hui's main job is actually to lead the second team of national table tennis players in training and competition, while Wang Manyu has entered the core layer of the national team, obviously her training and competition need higher-level guidance and more meticulous arrangements. Since the Paris Olympics, Xu Hui's work focus has shifted to the second team, gradually distancing himself from Wang Manyu's daily training. I saw netizens proposing, is this a natural "promotion"? That is to say, Wang Manyu has reached a higher position, and Xu Hui's task may also need to be adjusted accordingly. Everyone knows that Wang Manyu's current strength is no longer just relying on basic training like Xu Hui;…

In the new cycle, the leader of the national table tennis women's team, Sun Yingsha, has not been in good form, especially at the Asian Championships where she was defeated by Zhang Benmeihe and also experienced muscle reaction injury problems. After recovering from her injuries at the Fukuoka Finals, Sun Yingsha suffered a first-round exit in both the women's singles and doubles events. In the face of Sun Yingsha's unstable state, Wang Manyu stepped up to become the backbone of the national table tennis women's team, winning consecutive women's singles titles at the German Championship and Fukuoka Finals. Wang Manyu is a dark horse player in the Paris Olympic cycle, having beaten Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng multiple times to win the women's singles title. Wang Manyu's playing style is fierce, with a tough and powerful style, excellent physical fitness, and a wide coverage area on the court. Although Wang Manyu missed out on the women's singles ticket, she is still in her prime age in the new cycle. With Chen Meng retiring, Wang Manyu will continue to hold onto her position as a core player. From recent competitions, it can be seen that Ma Lin, the head coach of the national table tennis women's team, places great importance on Wang Manyu. After all, in the 2024 season, Sun Yingsha lost three foreign matches, against Mugek, Jin Qinying, and Zhang Benmeihe, while Wang Manyu only lost one foreign match, to Barat in the Saudi Grand Slam. Obviously, Wang Manyu's foreign match performance is more stable. However, the national table tennis…

The complete entry list for the Singapore Grand Slam is out! The national table tennis team has made significant adjustments, with Wang Chuqin and Wang Manyu leading young players. This move by the national table tennis team is truly dazzling to watch! The Singapore WTT Grand Slam is a "battle of the gods" in the world of table tennis, with a prize pool of $1.5 million and 2000 points up for grabs. Who wouldn't want to take a piece of that? The competition dates also coincide with our Spring Festival, from January 30th to February 9th. These table tennis athletes won't be able to go home for the holidays, which is quite tough! Now that the entry list is out, netizens have turned into "Sherlocks," starting to analyze it. On the men's singles side, we have familiar faces like Wang Chuqin, Lin Shidong, Liang Jingkun, Lin Gaoyuan, Xiang Peng, and Zhou Qihao, all with solid skills. For the women's singles, we have Sun Yingsha, Wang Manyu, Wang Yidi, Chen Xingtong, Qian Tianyi, and He Zhuojia, each a "heroine" in their own right. But the doubles lineup is really surprising! Wang Chuqin/Lin Shidong and Wang Manyu/Kuai Man are two new pairs, fresh as newly wrapped dumplings! The fans of "Big Head" (Wang Chuqin) can't sit still: "Didn't Big Head say he wanted to focus on singles? Why is he playing doubles again?" Indeed, Big Head is now juggling three events, busier than visiting relatives during the New Year! It's like an experienced driver taking a novice along. Although Lin Shidong has…

Under the warm sunshine of Hainan, the winter training of the national table tennis team in 2025 is in full swing. On January 10th, frontline journalists brought exclusive reports, unveiling the mysterious veil of the national table tennis team's preparations. This is not only the first training session of the new year, but also an important step towards the Los Angeles Olympics, with a tense yet hopeful atmosphere on site. The national table tennis team has adopted a "two-front battle" strategy, which makes people marvel at the painstaking efforts of the coaching staff. Some young players represented by Qian Tianyi are participating in the World Table Tennis Association's Star Challenge in Doha, and will then move on to the regular challenge in Oman. Meanwhile, the main force corps represented by Sun Yingsha, Wang Chuqin, and Wang Manyu are stationed in Hainan, accumulating strength for the upcoming Singapore Grand Slam event. On the training ground, sweat shines under the sun. After a week of intensive training, the three main players have spoken up, revealing their confidence and expectations for the future in their words. Wang Chuqin, affectionately known as "Big Head" by fans, appears particularly calm. Under the careful guidance of two famous coaches, Wang Hao and Xiao Zhan, he is moving towards higher goals. In training, his eyes are firm, and every action exudes focus and strength. This reminds people of his impressive performance last year, and now he seems ready to go further, ready for more. And "Great Demon King" Sun Yingsha shows her usual calmness. She hopes to…

Before the match, who could have thought that Sun Yingsha would turn the tide from being suppressed to a successful comeback? If you think one match can witness such a thrilling reversal, you probably haven't seen this epic battle. To talk about the weight of this match, everyone knows how important Sun Yingsha's role is in the women's team final of the 2024 Ping Pong Super League. She represents Shenzhen University and shoulders the responsibility of giving the team a chance to compete for the championship. Yes, simply put, if Sun Yingsha doesn't win, Shenzhen University will basically say goodbye to their championship dreams. The scene is heart-wrenching just thinking about it. Before the game, she faced Wang Manyu, the ace player of Shandong Luneng, who is not an ordinary opponent but has quite strong abilities. The match started with Wang Manyu quickly taking the lead at 8-4, like a raging tiger. At that moment, Sun Yingsha faced immense pressure, which was undoubtedly a critical moment in the entire match. Can she turn things around? The spectators in the stands were probably so tense they could hear their own heartbeat. However, Sun Yingsha did not panic. She began to stabilize her mentality and gradually narrowed the point difference. Sun Yingsha managed to tie the score at 8-8. Wow, this is the performance of a top athlete! In the key moments, she fought hard, although she ultimately lost the set, her performance was absolutely impressive. Wang Manyu won the first set 9-11, taking the lead. In the second set, Wang Manyu…

In the fiercely competitive and tightly structured team of the national table tennis team, the relationship between coaches and players is subtle and complex. Taking Wang Manyu and her head coach Xu Hui as an example, some thought-provoking situations have emerged. Coach Xu Hui has not been seen alongside Wang Manyu at the sidelines for a long time, and this trend has become increasingly evident since the Paris Olympics. Although the national table tennis team has not explicitly stated that they have parted ways, the reality is that Wang Manyu's sideline guidance is no longer provided by Xu Hui, and her daily training is also taken care of by others. This is mainly because Xu Hui needs to lead the second team players for training and competitions outside. However, there may be deeper reasons behind this. "In the bustling world, all seek profit; in the crowded world, all pursue gain." The same applies in the sports field, where the allocation of resources, attention, and development opportunities often influence the direction of pairing between coaches and players. Looking back at the awarding moment of the Paris Olympics, it was a scene that could reveal a lot of information. When the champion players were immersed in the joy of victory, the presence of different coaches formed a stark contrast. After Sun Yingsha won the championship, she happily took photos with Coach Qiu Yike, which is a natural picture of the head coach and player sharing glory. However, Wang Manyu was surrounded by Ma Lin and others to celebrate, while her head coach…

Recently, the final of the Ping Super League has been a hot topic, and the incident involving Wang Manyu has left many scratching their heads. How did a small controversy on the court escalate into such a situation? What exactly is going on? Let's start with the match itself. Wang Manyu raised a question about Tan Yuexuan's second jump, which is allowed by the rules, right? It wasn't intentional nitpicking, so why did it attract so much criticism? Even worse, after the game, three women chased her, hurling insults and even appearing ready to get physical! This is unacceptable. The club had to send bodyguards to escort her, a scene that sends chills down one's spine. This isn't just watching a game; this is causing trouble! The internet has erupted in outrage against these so-called "fans." What kind of fans are they? We should consider that Wang Manyu is also an ordinary person. Even as an athlete, she shouldn't have to endure such inhumane treatment. Athletes are people too, with their own emotions and feelings. They need respect, not cyberbullying! Moreover, even if Wang Manyu made a mistake during the match, does it warrant personal attacks? That goes against the spirit of sportsmanship! Some say that Ma Long also "interrupted" his opponent's rhythm during the Rio Olympics final and even went out to change clothes mid-game, yet no one criticized him. The reason is simple: he followed the rules. So what's the deal with these people now? Do they not understand the rules or are they deliberately looking for trouble?…
