At the 21-year-old Olympics in Tokyo, she defeated the main opponent of national table tennis, Ito Mimakoto, to help the Chinese team win a good result of one gold and one silver. At the World Table Tennis Championships in Houston in the second half of the year, Sun Yingsha was in 3 events, and finally won the women's doubles and mixed doubles championships, and the runner-up in women's singles.

After the Olympic Games, Sun Yingsha's head coach was facing a replacement, and Sun Yingsha said: "After the Olympic Games, the head coach Huang Dao left the team for personal family reasons, and I can understand and support his decision. Although there was no regular coach in charge during this time, there were coaches with different coaching styles to teach me and help me. Drawing nourishment from each coach has also made my understanding of table tennis more profound, and I feel that I have made some progress in both my technical level and state of mind than before. ”
In the women's table tennis singles final at the Tokyo Olympics, China's Chen Meng won the championship by defeating teammate Sun Yingsha 4-2. Sun Yingsha finished runners-up.

"I hope you believe in me and believe in the strongest team in the universe." The Chinese team table tennis team has the best coaches in the world. Changing the head coach is a normal thing in the growth trajectory of national team athletes, and different stages need different coaches to help them improve. I believe that I will do a good job, and I believe in the wisdom of the coaching staff of the Chinese table tennis team. Sun Yingsha said.
In the face of the first competition in 2022, Sun Yingsha said her wish, "I have always enjoyed the game process, and I am very happy to be able to play and show myself under the circumstances of the epidemic." I feel that my goals and dreams still need to be done on the ground. In the new year, hope to win more. In the races I've been in, I've won more championships."

For the growth of Sun Yingsha, the head coach of the women's team, Li Falcon, looked in the eyes, "Sun Yingsha has made rapid progress this year, and she has become one of the representatives of our young main force, which is not easy and can also see her potential." Although there have been some personnel adjustments, Sun Yingsha's state has been very stable, and our coaching team has also actively thought of ways for Sun Yingsha's continued growth and future development. Whether it is arranging for Chen Xuan to temporarily take her, or transferring coach Yang Guangdi, who was in charge of her before the provincial team, to assist in the preparation, including trying to cooperate with other styles of coaches, it is hoped to help Sun Yingsha grow rapidly."
Now entering the winter training of the new year, Li Falcon said, "There will be a WTT Macau competition immediately, you can see that after adjustment, and then come back to the training, the team members enter the role very quickly, and everyone also attaches great importance to this competition."
