For any table tennis player, the biggest achievement in his career is not to win the World Cup, nor to win the World Table Tennis Championship, nor to win the Olympic Games, but to win three international competitions, all of which have won singles championships, thus achieving the achievement of the Grand Slam of table tennis.
In the active hands of the national table tennis team, only Malone is a table tennis Grand Slam winner.
The player who is most likely to impact the grand slam of table tennis is Fan Zhendong, and Fan Zhendong's stability is obvious to all, and he is the champion guarantee of the national table tennis team.
But Fan Zhendong belongs to the men's team, what about the national table tennis women's team?
Who can become the first table tennis Grand Slam winner in active service? Is it Chen Meng or Sun Yingsha or Wang Manyu?
To be honest, these three are the most promising players to achieve a grand slam in table tennis.
The question is, who among the three will be the first to win a Grand Slam in table tennis?
Let's take a look at the achievements of the three of them in the three competitions.
Chen Meng already holds a World Cup and an Olympic women's singles champion, she is only one World Table Tennis Women's Singles Champion away from the Table Tennis Grand Slam, originally the Houston World Table Tennis Championships, Chen Meng was expected to complete this great achievement, but he was not able to defeat Wang Manyu, and even the final threshold was not touched.
What about Wang Manyu? Wang Manyu won the world table tennis championship in Houston, and his career was also the first world table tennis women's singles championship, one World Cup women's singles champion and an Olympic women's singles champion from the table tennis grand slam, compared to Chen Meng, Wang Manyu still has a lot of distance to catch up.
What about Sun Yingsha? If the WTT World Cup is counted as an extension of the World Cup, then Sun Yingsha has only won one World Cup women's singles championship, if it cannot be counted as an extension, then Sun Yingsha has not won the world singles championship so far.
Among the three, Sun Yingsha was at a great disadvantage, but among the three, Chen Meng occupied a disadvantage in age. In terms of the growth rate module, Wang Manyu grew more rapidly, and there is a trend of later surpassing.
So, who among the three is more likely to achieve a table tennis grand slam first?
From a rational point of view, Chen Meng is still the most promising to be the first to achieve a grand slam in the table tennis world, after all, the Olympic Games are held every four years, and the Paris Olympic Games will also be in 2024, whether it is Wang Manyu or Sun Yingsha, who wants to win the Championship in Paris, it will take two years, and it is difficult to guarantee that the two will get all the World Table Tennis Championships and World Cup women's singles championships before the Paris Olympic Games.
Although Chen Meng has a greater probability of achieving a table tennis grand slam.
However, some fans expressed concern that Chen Meng would fall into the spell of his head coach Marlene's career without a grand slam in table tennis.
Marlene, who was a player, won the Olympic men's singles championship early and also held four World Cup men's singles championships, but she was not related to the men's singles championship of the World Table Tennis Championships, which led to Marlene's failure to achieve her wish for a grand slam in the table tennis world until she retired.
Some people are worried that Chen Meng will follow in Marlene's footsteps.
Although this concern is understandable, Chen Meng and Ma Lin are after all players of two eras, and in terms of the current competitive ladder of the national table tennis women's team, Chen Dreams wants to complete the world table tennis women's singles championship, and the resistance is certainly there, but it is not so big.
Adjusting herself in time and then starting again, Chen Meng is still the first female player in the national table tennis women's team who finally hopes to achieve a grand slam in the table tennis world.
