In 1994, the first sister of female table tennis ranked among the top 10 in the world for 500 consecutive weeks
The competition in China's national table tennis is very fierce, and it is normal for the old and new to take over, in this case, many post-95 table tennis players have begun to take the lead. For example, the world No. 1 in men's table tennis is Fan Zhendong, born in 1997. The world No. 1 in women's table tennis is Sun Yingsha, born in 2000. However, Ma Long, born in 1988, and Chen Meng, born in 1994, are the two oldest players in the Chinese national table tennis squad today.
The latest news shows that Chen Meng has been in the top 10 in the world for 500 consecutive weeks. What is the concept of 500 weeks? A year is about 52 weeks, that is to say, Chen Meng has occupied the position of the top ten in the world for 8 years. Such a stable performance, I want to praise Chen Meng. This Qingdao girl is really amazing!
In the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, Chen Meng played bravely and won two gold medals in women's singles and women's team, when Chen Meng was 27 years old and in peak condition.
