On February 7, 2022, the new star of national table tennis, Ku Man, ushered in his 18th birthday - as the best of the young players in the women's team, Ku Man not only won glory for the country on the battlefield of the World Junior Championships, but also defeated the Olympic champion Chen Meng in last year's Table Tennis Super League, which was impressive, worthy of being promoted to a team by Liu Guoliang!
As an athlete with an Olympic cycle smaller than Sun Yingsha, Ito Mimachi and others, Kuman shoulders the new hope of the next generation of national table tennis, and is placed high hopes by Liu Guoliang, the coaching staff and the majority of fans and friends: New Year and new atmosphere, 18 years old to cheer ah!
Born in 2004, Kuman is a talented member of the female table tennis players of the same age who plays with two sides of the left hand cross-cutting anti-glue play, good basic skills and flexible lines. In 2018, at the age of 14, Kuman was selected for the national second team, and was later promoted to the first team for her excellent performances, when she was only 16 years old.
Although there are many talents within the national table tennis, Ku man still shows a strong competitiveness in the team, and can even pull down a master of Chen Meng's level, which shows that his potential is immeasurable.
At present, Japan and South Korea already have famous players of the same age range as Kuman, such as Zhang Benzhihe (born in 2003), Miyu Kihara (born in 2004), Shin Yubin (born in 2004), and the Most Promising Chinese women's team is Ku Man (the men's team also has Xiang Peng, born in 2003), and she is also a left-handed athlete, so she can undertake the task of singles and doubles.
Just in January this year, Kuman reached the mixed doubles final of the WTT Macau Tournament for the first time with Fan Zhendong, and also eliminated the World Table Tennis Champion Wang Chuqin/Sun Yingsha, so she will definitely be entrusted with this in the future, and may have the opportunity to participate in the Olympic Games!
According to the latest arrangement, Kuman will play in WTT Oman with at least 22 teammates at the end of February, which is a new test for the youngsters, because she will not only attack the teammates such as world champion Chen Xing, but also face Zheng Yijing and other foreign association masters, and will face a fierce battle at any time.
But which national table tennis main force did not rise in the cruel competition? Young people are to dare to fight in order to break through the hall of fame, I wish that Ku man can be in the year of the tiger tiger, early into the main ranks, to achieve the dream of world champion, Olympic champion: happy birthday, come on!
