In the women's singles youth group, the national table tennis side is very unoptimistic, none of the top 10 in the world is a member of the national table tennis team, and Qin Yuxuan, who is ranked the highest in the national table tennis team, is only ranked 15th in the world, and the gap between Japan and South Korea is still very large, which needs to be paid attention to.
The world No. 1 is Japan's 15-year-old Miwa Zhangmoto, and the world No. 4 and No. 9 are also Japanese players. South Korea, on the other hand, occupies the 2nd, 10th, 12th, and 14th positions in the world. For details, please refer to the following figure, which can be collected:
Cheerilee Sports Analysis
The strength of our national table tennis senior group is too strong, and the other Japanese team, South Korean team, French team, German team, Brazilian team, etc. are far from our opponents. But in the youth group, especially the youth women's singles, the situation is not optimistic, the Japanese team, the South Korean team, France, Egypt and other young players have grown up very quickly, but our national table tennis women's singles players have not been able to come out, which needs to attract our attention.
Of course, the main strength of the senior women's table tennis of our national team is too strong, resulting in some national table tennis players who are less than 20 years old not having the opportunity to participate in the international competitions of the senior group in order to stand out, so the world ranking points that can be obtained are also limited. And players like Zhang Benmeihe, Kim Naying and other players, because they participated in the world competition too early, they grew up fast and ranked high in the world.
But in any case, we can't let our proudest table tennis project be overtaken by the outside association. We pay attention to the current results, especially the Olympic results, but after the Olympic Games, we must let the young players go to the world stage as soon as possible to exercise, otherwise if we are not careful, we may be overtaken by strong opponents. It is still necessary to be prepared for danger in times of peace and take precautions.
Come on, national table tennis, always love you, always support you, come on, praise and cheer for you!
