Every Tuesday is the day when the International Table Tennis Federation announces the latest world rankings, this week due to the top 16 competitions in Europe, so the European players have improved their rankings, the Slovenian fierce Dako Jokic, who won the men's singles championship, rose 5 places, and the young player Wang Chuqin came to the 12th place after the national table tennis 00, while the women's singles champion 39-year-old German veteran Han Ying rose 6 places, ranking 14th, followed by Chen Xingtong.
The top 10 positions in the men's singles world rankings have not changed from the previous period, specifically: 1. Fan Zhendong 8598 points 2. Ma Long 5404 points 3. Hugo 4913 points 4. Zhang Benzhihe 4608 points 5. Liang Jingkun 3841 points 6. Ochalov 3798 points 7. Lin Yunru 3705 points 8. Boer 3512 points 9. Xu Xin 3452 points 10. Lin Gaoyuan 3303 points
The world's No. 1 Fan Zhendong has a huge lead, he has led the 2nd place Ma Long by 3194 points, such a point difference even if the two are participating in the Grand Slam in Singapore soon after, it is difficult to narrow, not to mention that the 25-year-old Fan Zhendong is the year of the fight, in the recent world championships and World Cup finals of the men's singles champion, the feel of the hot hand should continue until 2022. The top 10 national table tennis also include Liang Jingkun, Xu Xin and Lin Gaoyuan, but Xu Xin and Lin Gaoyuan need to improve their rankings as soon as possible, otherwise they may encounter teammates in the 1/8 finals of the competition.
Wang Chuqin, a young player after the national table tennis 00, is close to the top 10 in the world, but this week's ranking has dropped by one place, because the European men's singles champion Dako Jokic has improved 5 places with excellent performance, directly surpassing Wang Chuqin to 12th, which is also the world's top players who have improved the most. Sweden's Youngster Moregold, who finished runner-up in the Round of 16 in Europe, is ranked 14th in the world, and both are seen as future successors to European men's table tennis. Jang Woo-jin, a south Korean brother who was once ranked 10th in the world, has dropped to 19th because of his recent poor performance.
The top 10 women's singles also remained unchanged, namely: 1. Sun Yingsha 7580 points 2. Chen Meng 7175 points 3. Ito Mimachi 5216 points 4. Wang Manyu 5011 points 5. Wang Yidi 4427 points 6. Hayada Hina 3564 points 7. Du Kaixuan 3172 points 8. Ishikawa Jiajun 3110 points 9. Feng Tianwei 3070 points 10. Tian Zhixi 2948 points
Among the top 10 players, the top 2 Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng are in their own gear, far ahead, and the world No. 1 battle between the two will continue in a series of recent competitions. Wang Manyu, who is in the best form, is difficult to surpass the top 3 to the top of the table in the near future due to insufficient points, but she is most likely to surpass Ito Mimachi in points. The national table tennis women's team as a whole shrank slightly in the world rankings, before 6 people ranked in the top 10, with Liu Shiwen, Ding Ning and Zhu Yuling withdrawing from the top 10, there are currently 4 people in the top 10, and young players need to play more games to improve the point ranking as soon as possible.
Germany's 39-year-old veteran Han Ying, who has just won the top 16 in Europe, rose six places to 14th with 2578 points, and she also set a record for the oldest person to win the championship in the event. With Han Ying's points ranking rising, China's Zhu Yuling and Liu Shiwen dropped 1 place each, ranking 16th and 17th, and Liu Shiwen needs to come up with results as soon as possible in Grand Slam and other competitions to improve the ranking and return to the world's top 10.
