Remember hao Shuai, the world champion of national table tennis? The 38-year-old veteran appeared in Japan's T-League, where he still had a 3-2 win over Yuya Oshima. Obviously, Hao Shuai has no intention of saying goodbye to table tennis.
Hao Shuai entered the national first team in 2000 and subsequently achieved good results. Although he did not participate in the Olympic Games, in the 2010 Team World Cup, Hao Shuai played as a member of the Chinese team and won the team world championship. In addition, Hao Shuai also partnered Marlene in 2013 to win the men's doubles runner-up at the World Table Tennis Championships in Paris.
In singles, Hao Shuai's last highlight was at the 2012 Suzhou Open in China, when he defeated Samsonov, Boer, Xu Xin and Wang Liqin to win the men's singles title. After that, Hao Shuai slowly began to fade out of the international arena, but the 2017 National Games also entered the mixed doubles final, losing to Ziyang /Wang Manyu and finishing second. Before this year's Olympic Games, Hao Shuai signed a contract with the T-League Okayama Club to play in Japan.
Hao Shuai's athlete period was relatively low-key, but the national table tennis career also triggered a public opinion crisis. It was 2007, and it was a video showing that Liu Guoliang, then the head coach of Chinese men's table tennis, was having dinner with several coaches and players in the team when he saw Hao Shuai and Chen Xuan verbally clashing, and then Liu Guoliang went to Hao Shuai, grabbed the mobile phone, and slapped Hao Shuai's head. This triggered a lot of public opinion storms, and then Huang Biao, the leader of the Chinese table tennis team, said that this was just a joke and not serious at all. Liu Guoliang also said that it was not a real fight.
However, it can be seen that Liu Guoliang was also very majestic in the team at that time. As for Hao Shuai's failure to achieve too good results in the end, it is also because the competition in the national table tennis team is too fierce. Hao Shuai is still 3-2 at the age of 38 and still beat Yuya Oshima, who is currently playing at the age of 27, and remains in good shape.
