On December 14, Beijing time, the International Table Tennis Federation updated the world ranking of table tennis players. Fan Zhendong, a brother of Chinese national table tennis, ranked first in the list. In addition, Ma Long, Xu Xin, Liang Jingkun, and Lin Gaoyuan entered the top ten. Youngster Wang Chuqin has risen from seventeenth to twelfth place due to his excellent performance in the World Table Tennis Championships and world cup.
Fan Zhendong's points are difficult to surpass
Before Fan Zhendong competed in the Houston World Table Tennis Championships and the Singapore World Cup, his personal points had exceeded 10,000. At that time, it firmly occupied the throne of the world's first place. Little Fat Fan Zhendong passed the World Table Tennis Championships as the double identity of the no. 1 seed and the champion of the National Games. In the World Table Tennis Championships and world cups, Fan Zhendong played well and reached the final, and defeated Sweden's Moregaard and Japan's Zhang Benzhihe to win the championship.
In this way, Fan Zhendong has 2000 +1500 points into the account. The total number of individual points reached a rare 14145. 3635 points ahead of second-placed Malone. Given that Malone and Xu Xin are basically in semi-retired state, taking the 8608 points of fourth place Hugo as an example, it is almost impossible to surpass Fan Zhendong in his career. As long as Fan Zhendong remains in good shape, he should be able to maintain the world's number one position until retirement.
National Table Tennis Lin Gaoyuan Liang Jingkun entered the top ten
Fan Zhendong, Ma Long and Xu Xin ranked in the top three. Fourth place is Brazil's Hugo. Fifth place is Japan's Tomokazu Zhang. Sixth place is Lin Yunru of Chinese Taipei, seventh place is China's Lin Gaoyuan, eighth place is China's Liang Jingkun, ninth place is Ukraine's O'Ailov, and tenth place is Germany's Bohr. The five members of The Chinese national table tennis team occupy the top ten. National table tennis youngster Wang Chuqin rose from 17th to 12th for his outstanding performances in the World Table Tennis Championships and world cup.
National table tennis urgently needs reserve reserve talents
However, considering that Xu Xin and Ma Long have reached the end of their careers. In fact, there are only three main players in the top ten of the national table tennis. Between the eleventh and twentieth places, there is only one male table tennis player, Wang Chuqin. Therefore, although the national table tennis men's team is led by Fan Zhendong, the teammates who help him maintain the strength of the national table tennis still need to have new people emerge. In the open tournament before the World Table Tennis Championships, the national table tennis focused on Liu Dingshuo and Zhou Qihao, and the performance of the two people was mixed. In particular, Zhou Qihao' foreign war results are unstable and inferior, which is very unfavorable to his development in national table tennis.
In the new 2022, Liu Guoliang will definitely put the cultivation of a new reserve force for the men's team on the agenda. Ma Long and Xu Xin did not retire for the time being, perhaps to assist Chairman Liu to successfully complete the replacement of men's table tennis. Therefore, young players with potential in national table tennis must seize the opportunity. Liu Dingshuo, Lin Shidong and other players are more potential players. Let's see if they can grasp it.
