At the WTT Saudi Arabia Grand Slam, the Chinese table tennis team won all five individual championships in one fell swoop, showing absolute competitive advantages. Wang Chuqin defeated Germany's Francesca 4-2 to win the men's singles, men's doubles and mixed doubles events. The tournament is particularly rewarding with prize money and points, with the official $2 million prize money and 2,000 points in history, which is on par with the Singapore Grand Slam.
In terms of men's and women's singles champions alone, Wang Chuqin and Chen Meng were rewarded with $65,000 and 2,000 points respectively, while Wang Chuqin won a total of 530,000 yuan. After Chen Meng defeated Sun Yingsha in the women's singles final, her personal prize money reached 500,000 yuan, including the income from the women's singles and women's doubles events.
It is worth mentioning that after Liu Guoliang became the president of the World Table Tennis Federation, the career development of table tennis players has been significantly improved. In the past, table tennis players had limited income, but in recent years, with the introduction of professional events such as Grand Slams and Champions Challenges, there has been a significant increase in income channels for table tennis players.
In the women's singles final of this event, the duel between Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha became the focus, and both players are important forces in the national table tennis women's team. Sun Yingsha is on a back-to-back winning streak in the tournament, while Chen's victory in the final secured her place in the Women's Singles at the upcoming Paris Olympics, a victory that will be significant for her career.
