A few days ago, the national table tennis has been regrouped and is conducting closed training in Lingshui, Hainan, including Sun Yingsha, Fan Zhendong and other main forces have gathered, not only adhering to the training of technology and tactics, but also strengthening the strengthening of physical fitness. Judging from the latest exposed video, Sun Yingsha is doing core physical strengthening training under the guidance of the physical fitness coach, and the difficulty is no less than that of any ordinary team member. In addition, the recent changes in the personnel of the national table tennis coaching team will also affect the situation of Sun Yingsha, who has previously been an off-field coach for Sun Yingsha in many competitions, has taken the initiative to resign for personal reasons and returned to Nanjing Institute of Physical Education in Jiangsu as the men's first-line coach of the table tennis team. This also means that Sun Yingsha's supervisor coach cannot be Chen Xuan.
In the latest edition of the World Rankings of the International Table Tennis Federation, the world ranking of women's singles has changed hands, and Sun Yingsha officially surpassed Chen Meng and became the world number one in the xinke women's singles. After experiencing the baptism of the two world championships of the Tokyo Olympic Games and the Houston World Table Tennis Championships, although Sun Yingsha eventually missed the champion, she proved her strength and domineering spirit in the competition, and reaching the top of the world is an affirmation of her efforts and achievements. Of course, the failure to achieve a breakthrough in the singles Olympic champion and the world table tennis champion has also made Sun Yingsha more motivated to impact in the new cycle and strive to achieve a breakthrough as soon as possible.
There is also a focus issue around Sun Yingsha, that is, her head coach in the national team has been unresolved. Since last year's Table Tennis Super League, Sun Yingsha's head coach Huang Haicheng announced her resignation, so she has no head coach, in daily training, Li Falcon, as the head coach of the women's singles coaching team, will take into account her training, and in the official game, most of the time is the "killing god" Chen Xuan took on the role of field coach, accompanied her through the Houston World Table Tennis Championships and WTT Singapore and other events. It also makes the outside world think that Chen Xuan will have a great possibility of becoming Sun Yingsha's head coach.
But just recently, a news came out about Chen Xuan's resignation for personal reasons and his return to Jiangsu to coach. According to the documents of Nanjing University of Physical Education, in the "Decision of Nanjing University of Physical Education on Hiring 101 Comrades Including Li Mingde and Other Comrades as Coaches of Provincial Excellent Sports Teams" issued by the school [2021] No. 81, Comrade Chen Xuan was appointed as the men's first-line coach of the table tennis team from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2025. This also means that Chen Xuan is unlikely to return to the national team in the next three years, missing the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.
