After the second stop of the National Table Tennis Durban World Table Tennis Championships, the WTT World Table Tennis Federation officially issued a statement in response to the current rumors about "Liu Guoliang gambling" on the Internet, so that this matter finally had a clear response!
Liu Guoliang, as the first vice president of the ITTF and the chairman of the board of directors of the WTT World Table Tennis Federation, if there is a gambling ball in the event sponsored by the WTT World Table Tennis Federation, it is a serious blow to his reputation and the credibility of Chinese table tennis! Although China's national table tennis has had a handicap in history, but there have been no rumors of gambling, Lao Liu now holds a position of real power in the field of international table tennis, if he really made a disgraceful move, then it is really faceless!
Beijing time on March 31, the ITTF Group said in a statement that there have been recent rumors of the integrity of the ITTF and WTT World Table Tennis League, which originated from a report by Sportradar. However, the ITTF and WTT World Table Tennis Federation competitions monitored by the report in 2022 have no suspicious betting activities, and the controversial matches involved in the table tennis projects in the relevant reports released by the company are not related events of these two organizations.
In this regard, Liu Guoliang also made it clear that the accounts that publish false information online distort the facts and fabricate false information, which has caused adverse effects on WTT World Table Tennis Federation and related events! At the same time, ITTF President Petra Solin personally said that she would help Liu Guoliang prove her innocence, saying that the rumors on the Internet were unfounded, and their organization has always attached great importance to the fairness and fairness of the event, and has always supervised and ensured the purity and integrity of the competition.
Now that the investigation of the "gambling" rumor is over, the matter has come out, the report of Sportradar company is fine, but it was deliberately distorted by some people with ulterior motives, and now the ITTF and the World Table Tennis Federation officials have come out to speak, and the fans can rest assured!
