At the 2024 All Japan Championships, the figure of a Chinese coach is particularly eye-catching. He is Wang Rui, a former player of the Hebei Provincial Team, and now a Japanese table tennis coach. In this competition, his two disciples, Miu Hirano and Miyu Kihara, achieved remarkable results, winning a total of four championships and becoming the focus of the competition.
Wang Rui, a former Hebei provincial player in the same batch as Ma Lin, chose to retire at the age of 24 and moved to Japan to coach. His Chinese background and coaching experience in Japan make up his unique coaching career. Wang Rui's teaching in Japan is not only a technical transfer, but also a bridge for cultural exchange.
Under the guidance of Wang Rui, Miu Hirano shined in the 17 Wuxi Asian Championships and became famous. Her success is not only a personal glory, but also a reflection of Wang Rui's coaching ability. Miu Hirano's victory in the Paris Olympic qualifying round is a testament to Wang Rui's teaching achievements.
Miyu Kihara was particularly eye-catching at the All Japan Championships, where she won both the mixed doubles and women's doubles events. The young Japanese table tennis player, under the guidance of Wang Rui, has shown amazing potential and strength.
The victories in the mixed doubles and women's doubles competitions are not only the glory of Miyu Kihara and Miyu Nagasaki, but also the highlight of coach Wang Rui's career. Their joy and tears on the field showed the deep emotional bond between the athletes and the coaches.
The "W Miyu" combination of Kihara and Nagasaki has already shown their strength at the 2023 World Championships. Their victory in the All Japan Championships is not only a testament to their ability, but also the best affirmation of Wang Rui's coaching methods.
Wang Rui's success lies not only in the champion athletes he has trained, but also in his influence in the international table tennis arena as a Chinese coach. His story proves the advanced nature of Chinese table tennis technology and teaching methods, and also shows the importance of the internationalization of sports and cultural exchange.
