In the table tennis arena, there are strong players from all over the world, the competition is extremely fierce, and the rankings are changing and changing frequently.
Recently, a new table tennis star from France, F. Lebrun, has attracted the attention of the world like a bright new star. The Frenchman is so strong that he has soared to No. 5 in the world rankings.
In the men's singles world rankings, Chinese players still occupy the top three steadily, but F. Lebrun is with him, only 600 points away from Ma Long in fourth place.
He has performed eye-catching in recent tournaments and has become a strong competitor in national table tennis. Liu Guoliang bluntly said in an interview that the Lebrun brothers of the French team will be difficult opponents for national table tennis in the next 10 years.
They have brought the backhand speed flow system into full play with their ingenuity and galloped across the European table tennis arena. However, F. Lebrun's remarks in an exclusive interview with the media after returning to France caused an uproar.
When talking about Japan's Tomokazu Zhangmoto, he was full of praise, saying that his style of play is superb, skillfully integrating offense and defense, and his offensive ideas are ingenious, like a "master of the art of table tennis".
He greatly admires Tomokazu Zhangmoto, firmly believes that he will become a superstar in the world table tennis in the future, and says that only Tomokazu Zhang is the goal he will pursue in the future.
When asked about his opinion on Chinese table tennis players, F. Lebrun unabashedly pointed out Ma Long's shortcomings, believing that Ma Long relies too much on the forehand, the backhand is relatively weak, and the age limit may lead to inability in long-term confrontations.
He also commented on Fan Zhendong's ups and downs, and even claimed that Wang Chuqin cheated on his serve. In his eyes, Chinese table tennis players seem to have flaws, and only Zhang Benzhihe is the "pride of the sky".
Why was F. Lebrun so "obsessed" with Tomokazu Zhang? It turned out that his admiration for Tomokazu Changmoto originated from his youth.
At that time, Tomokazu Zhang was shining in the youth table tennis tournament, and the opportunities for Chinese teenagers to participate in international competitions were relatively limited, so F. Lebrun regarded Tomokazu Zhang as his idol.
In the last World Cup final, the Chinese men's table tennis players played abnormally and went out early, and Zhang Benzhihe and F. Lebrun successfully met in the men's singles finals.
F. Lebrun spoke highly of the match, calling it "the most thrilling final". In the end, Tomokazu Zhang won the championship, which also made F. Lebrun's admiration for him even deeper.
Judging from the recent games, although F. Lebrun and Zhang Benzhihe played advanced and passionate, they still struggled to shake the majestic mountain of the Chinese team.
Zhang Benzhihe was "defeated" by Fan Zhendong and Liang Jingkun, and F. Lebrun was also rejected by Wang Chuqin. Their worship seems to be a sympathy between two losers.
In the world of table tennis, strength and performance are the ultimate criteria. F. Lebrun's arrogance and excessive admiration for Tomokazu Changmoto may have been temporary.
In the future, he still needs to prove himself with more great results. The Chinese table tennis team will continue to forge ahead to meet challenges from all over the world.
Looking back on history, the Chinese table tennis team has always been the hegemon of the table tennis world, with many top players. Liu Guoliang, Ma Long, Zhang Jike and other famous generals are as dazzling as stars. With their superb skills and tenacious fighting spirit, they have won numerous honors.
Take Malone as an example, his forehand and backhand skills are balanced, his attack is sharp, and his defense is solid. His style of play is like a symphony, with the rhythm just right, and every shot is like a note played by a musician, precise and powerful.
And Zhang Jike has won the love of many fans with his domineering style of play and strong personality charm. His style of play is like a storm and makes it difficult for opponents to parry.
Looking at Tomokazu Zhangmoto, he is undoubtedly a controversial and mysterious figure. National table tennis fans have complicated emotions towards him, this "little motorcycle" can not only speak Chinese fluently, but also proficient in Japanese, but he has become the leader of Japanese table tennis.
At just 14 years old, Tomokazu began representing Japan at senior level. It is said that his habit of yelling during the competition was actually a unique way of decompressing because he was young and nervous.
Many national table tennis players, and even the main players have become his subordinates, which also makes him the player of the foreign association who has broken through the national table tennis defense line the most in the past 10 years.
At a young age, he is already the leader of the Japanese team, and he also has valuable experience in participating in the Olympic Games. In the Paris Olympics, he will once again become the number one rival of national table tennis.
But Tomokazu Zhang is like a "nerve knife", often inexplicably collapsing in a game, and unexpectedly losing to players whose strength is obviously inferior to him.
Fang Bo, a famous table tennis player, once gave a sharp and pertinent comment on Zhang Benzhihe's level in a live broadcast. He pointed out that the five main forces of national table tennis are outstanding, and it is really difficult for Zhang Benzhihe to win against them.
Not only that, Fang Bo also revealed that even Yan An, who has withdrawn from national table tennis, can sweep Tomokazu Zhang with a perfect record of 3-0 in Japan's T League. It can be seen that it is not easy for Zhang Benzhihe to face any player in national table tennis.
Fang Bo's remarks are true, although in the Olympic year, national table tennis players such as Fan Zhendong, Wang Chuqin, Ma Long, Liang Jingkun, Lin Gaoyuan and teenager Lin Shidong have lost to foreign associations, but this does not mean that the level of national table tennis is regressing.
On the contrary, the strength of players from other associations is indeed gradually improving. However, the National Table Tennis Association is only an accidental phenomenon after all.
For national table tennis players, they should neither despise the opponents of foreign associations, nor should they overly deify the top masters of foreign associations, including Zhang Benzhihe.
As far as national table tennis is concerned, although no player can pose a substantial threat to them at present, the challenge of foreign associations still exists. From the perspective of strength, the threat posed by Lin Yunru may be more severe than that of Zhang Benzhihe.
So, what is the true level of Tomokazu Zhangmoto? This may be a difficult question to answer simply. He certainly has some strength, but at the same time there is an element of instability.
When he faces the national table tennis, it may bring challenges, but as long as the national table tennis does his best, reduces mistakes, and stabilizes his mentality, there is no need to be overly afraid of him.
Looking back on Tomokazu Zhangmoto's growth process, his strength should not be underestimated. He showed great talent and potential at a young age, and with his unique style of play and tenacious fighting spirit, he achieved excellent results in many competitions.
However, Tomokazu Zhang also has some obvious shortcomings. For example, his mentality is prone to fluctuations and he often fails to perform at his best in key moments, which has also led to him losing in some important matches.
Compared with the Chinese players, there is still a certain gap between F. Lebrun and Tomokazu Zhangmoto. Although their technology is advanced, it needs to be further improved in terms of stability and comprehensiveness.
But their appearance also sounded the alarm for the Chinese table tennis team. The opponent is constantly improving, and the Chinese team cannot relax in the slightest.
