In the already concluded WTT Singapore Grand Slam competition, the national table tennis team won all five championships in the tournament. Among them, Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng won the men's and women's singles championships; Fan Zhendong/Wang Chuqin, Wang Manyu/Sun Yingsha won the men's and women's doubles championships respectively; while Wang Chuqin/Sun Yingsha won the mixed doubles championship. On this basis, the top 5 fans of active national table tennis players were released: Ma Long was 1st, Liu Shiwen was 3rd, and Sun Yingsha came later. Details are as follows:
What are the top 5 fans of active national table tennis players?
In order to more objectively reflect the number of fans of active national table tennis players, take the number of fans of two mainstream social platforms such as Weibo and Douyin as an example. After investigation, as of March 28, 2022, the number of fans of the active players of the national table tennis players is ranked as follows:
1. Ma Long, 34 years old, began playing at the age of 5, entered the national table tennis team at the age of 15, has played for the national table tennis for 19 years, and is the first super grand slam male player in the history of table tennis to integrate the Olympic Games, World Championships, World Cup, Asian Games, Asian Championships, Asian Cup, Tour Finals, National Games and other major singles champions. At present, Ma Long's Weibo fans are 8.204 million, the number of Douyin fans is 4.855 million, and the comprehensive number of fans is 13.059 million.
2. Xu Xin, 32 years old, began to contact table tennis at the age of 4, entered the national table tennis team at the age of 16, and has played for the national table tennis for 16 years, during which he won the Asian Games, the National Championships and other men's singles championships. At present, Xu Xin's Weibo fans are 5.718 million, the number of Douyin fans is 5.146 million, and the number of comprehensive fans is 10.864 million.
3. Liu Shiwen, 31 years old, studied table tennis since childhood, entered sports school at the age of 5, was selected for the second team of the national team at the age of 13, promoted to the first team at the age of 14, and won the Women's Singles Championships such as the World Cup and the Asian Cup during the period. At present, Liu Shiwen's Weibo fans are 2.717 million, the number of Douyin fans is 2.590 million, and the number of comprehensive fans is 5.307 million.
4. Sun Yingsha, now 22 years old, began to learn table tennis at the age of 5, entered the second team of the national team at the age of 15, and was promoted to the first team at the age of 17, and has played for the national table tennis for 7 years, during which she won the WTT World Cup women's singles championship. At present, Sun Yingsha's Weibo fans are 1.755 million, the number of Douyin fans is 2.453 million, and the number of comprehensive fans is 4.208 million.
5. Chen Meng, 28 years old, began to learn table tennis at the age of 5, was transferred to the second team of the national team at the age of 8, and promoted to the first team of the national team at the age of 13. At present, Chen Meng's Weibo fans are 1.764 million, the number of Douyin fans is 2.384 million, and the number of comprehensive fans is 4.148 million.
In order to say that Sun Yingsha came to the top?
The reason why Sun Yingsha came to the top, there are two main reasons: First, in the top 5 rankings of the number of fans of the active players in the national table tennis, the youngest and the shortest time to play in the national table tennis is Sun Yingsha, and the number of fans has surpassed Chen Meng to rank 4th. Second, Sun Yingsha has a much higher number of fans than national table tennis players of the same age. For example, Wang Chuqin, who was also born in 2000, currently has only 724,000 Weibo fans, while the number of Douyin fans is even less than 450,000.
Finally, I would like to say that it is not surprising that Sun Yingsha was able to rank among the top 5. Looking at the national table tennis players, only Sun Yingsha's combination of strength, cuteness, stability, high emotional intelligence and competition results can naturally gain the love of a large number of fans. So, what do you think of Sun Yingsha? Welcome to the interactive communication below!
