Soon the World Table Tennis Championships, many records are waiting for young players to create, but unfortunately a bunch of veterans can't play.
Taking advantage of this work, small talk records, spent most of the day to make a dozen tables, we through the data to analyze the winning rate of the past generations of national table tennis players, from which to find some "hard goods".

Why do you want to do data? I think the data can answer some questions, such as why Liu Guoliang trusts Wang Hao so much, because he can reach the three major singles finals 12 times (surpassing Ma Long), even if it was athens for the first time in 2004 to participate in the Olympics, which is enough to show that Wang Hao is indeed the first choice in the defensive zone.
Why is Wang Hao runner-up in three consecutive Olympic Games? The data can see that his winning rate in the final is indeed the lowest among the two kings and one horse, the dragon mastiff and the fat, perhaps because Wang Hao's psychological quality does not match his technical strength.
Data can let everyone see that everyone has his strengths and weaknesses, a little more objective, a little more rational.
In the era of two kings and one horse, three people held each other back, and as a result, no one got a grand slam; then Wang Hao, Ma Long, and Zhang Jike were another trap, but fate changed the script this time.
Talk about Wang Tao's singles. He has been ranked first in the world, participating in 4 World Cups, the best result is the runner-up; 4 World Championships, the best result is the third place; 2 Olympic Games, a runner-up, a quarter-final.
Some people think that Zhang Jike's story is inspirational, and some people think that Ma Long's experience is inspiring, and I think they all have their own appreciation angles, one is explosiveness, and the other is tenacity. The most annoying thing is to spread rumors, to fake, not to admit the strength of others, or to close your eyes and say which is not OK.
Looking at the streak chart, whether you admit it or not, a picture malone occupies half of the position, what does this mean? On the one hand, it shows that his career is very long-lasting, and on the other hand, it shows ThatRon's reign of terror.
It is respectable that Wang Liqin has been on the list 2 times, and Fan Zhendong has been on the list 2 times and python 1 time. Lian Sheng also reflected from the side which people are real "professional athletes", how dedicated, or labor models! To a certain extent, it also shows that Malone is a particularly self-disciplined person, very great, and the data reflects it.
This chart tells the winning percentage ranking for 16 years, and it is another marlon in the water. The good news is that Xu Xin ushered in a highlight moment in 2014, and others were shortlisted for Wang Liqin and Fan Zhendong.
Note: Malone had an annual singles win rate of more than 90% for 8 years from 2010 to 2018 (except 2012).
Xu Xin had a singles win rate of more than 90% in 2008 (only participated in two open tournaments) and 2014, and Wang Liqin, Ma Lin, Zhang Jike and Fan Zhendong all had a singles win rate of more than 90% in only one year.
The top 3 of this season's winning percentage list was only counted in 2015, and the workload was too large to give up. For six years, it has been the Three Musketeers of Rio who have dominated the list. Only in 2018 the big fat Liang Jingkun occasionally got involved, he is this year's table tennis super mvp, that is also for a reason.
Why are there people who are civil and inland and outsiders, and thus useless? How does the coaching staff choose the no.1 of the cycle? Look at the top ten foreign war masters: Ma Long 2 times, Xu Xin 3 times, The Second King and One Horse only Wang Hao 2 times, fan Zhendong 1 time.
Here is a point to note that Zhang Jike's longest unbeaten foreign war record is 7 months and 39 games, from January 2012 to August 2012; or 1 year, 3 months and 34 unbeaten foreign games in terms of time span, from May 2014 to August 2015, but still can not be listed.
Prince Chu Qin is 43 games, which is the highest outside of the two kings and one horse, the dragon python fat, it seems that the p card is for a reason.
At the international level, this is the list of win rates in the men's singles finals, and it is also the table with the highest gold content, and winning is the world champion. Coincidentally, there were just 7 people: two kings and one horse, dragon python fat, plus Zhang Jike.
However, there are only 2 Grand Slams out of 7 people, because the two kings and one horse are seriously depleted (now called inner volumes), and no one has achieved a Grand Slam. And Wang Hao is the saddest, the final win rate is less than 50%, the proper "millennium old two".
Speaking of the upcoming Houston World Table Tennis Championships, how can this picture be missing? I will not do the World Cup and the Olympic Games, and the gold content is far less than the World Table Tennis Championships. Because according to the difficulty of the competition and the comprehensive evaluation, it is probably sorted like this: the World Table Tennis Championships> the National Games> the Olympic Games> the World Cup> the Wiit Finals> the National Championships > the Asian Cup.
This is our opponent, generally at the beginning of each new cycle (4 years of the Olympic Games), Liu Guoliang will paste the main opponent in the most eye-catching position of the training hall, or play it on the big screen.
Of course, this was the last cycle, and today's new cycle in Paris is sorted by: Zhang Ben, Kobayashi, Ocha and Bohr.
Let's look at attendance for 3 consecutive cycles. On the whole, Xu Xin is really a labor model-level existence. Maybe it's because he has to singles, doubles, and mixed doubles, from the side also reflects his super physical fitness and physical fitness, otherwise what are so many "fairy balls"?
The Fairy Ball is mainly obtained by active running, and this requires extraordinary physical conditions. Of course, Ma Long and Fan Zhendong are not bad.
Finally, let's compare the records of the ten top male table tennis players, including two kings and one horse, dragon python fat, plus Zhang Jike, Wang Chuqin, Lin Gaoyuan, Liang Jingkun four middle layers to a comprehensive consideration (10vs10).
The ranking of this chart basically shows who is the strongest male table tennis player, the ranking is: Ma Long, Fan Zhendong, Zhang Jike occupy the top three, Xu Xin and the second king and one horse are in the middle layer, the rest is the big head, big fat and Lin sister three, the winning rate is only half of Ma Long, indeed the male table tennis prospects are worrying, and there is only a small fat purple micro star left.
Attached is a table tennis table 3 cycles of appearances. This watch carefully looked, obviously not as stable as male table tennis, why? Because the inner volume of women's table tennis is too serious, often a person's era has just emerged, and a large number of excellent players have begun to impact.
The people caught in the middle layer are "old and young", either they can't play out and choose to quit the competition, or they are short-lived. For example, like Chen Meng, Liu Shiwen, a small jujube who is only one Olympic gold medal away from a Grand Slam; such as Zhu Yuling, a designated future female table tennis sister and p card holder.
Finally, there is a form that has not been processed, just go to the text. Since 1995, the world's top 10 national table tennis players, in addition to Liu Kong, Erwang Yima, Dragon Mastiff Python Fat:
Wang Tao, ranked 1st in the world;
Ma Wenge, ranked 3rd in the world at the highest level;
Ding Song, the highest ranked 6th in the world;
Liu Guozheng, the highest ranked 2nd in the world;
Yan Sen, the highest ranking in the world, ranked 8th;
Hao Shuai, ranked 7th in the world;
Chen Xuan, ranked 5th in the world;
Hou Yingchao, the highest ranking in the world 10th;
Yan An, the highest ranked 7th in the world;
Fang Bo, the highest ranking in the world, ranked 8th;
Lin Gaoyuan, ranked 2nd in the world;
Liang Jingkun, the highest ranking in the world 6th.
Look, Wang Chuqin and Zhou Qihao have never entered the top ten, so it is conceivable how difficult it is to expect "purple micro stars from the sky" at this World Table Tennis Championships, and the coaching staff is really the confidence of fans.
【Conclusion】
Watchmaking is not easy, there should be small mistakes, welcome to exchange, propose corrections.
Personally, I would like to make a small summary:
1, Ma Long is worthy of being the first person in the history of world table tennis, the persistence of the profession is more than 16 years, and it is still growing, which can be described as the Jordan of the table tennis industry, the well-deserved goat;
2, Wang Liqin is really strong, but unfortunately the civil war is a little weaker;
3. Wang Hao's sadness stems from the fact that he did not catch several heavyweight finals, otherwise he could fight with Ma Long and achieve success;
4, Zhang Jike can not talk about absolute dominance, the benefits of the Grand Slam are second only to Liu Guoliang, there is a certain coincidence;
5, incomparably nostalgic for the era of two kings and one horse, gorgeous play, distinct personality (Marlene Wang Hao is obviously straight, but the opposite way of playing), ornamental is very strong, and now with the withdrawal of the dragon python, it is also small fat can see, other people's games are simply a waste of time;
6, the future of the world is Fan Zhendong's, but if you want to compete with Ma Long, two kings and one horse, it is still very early, and you have taken a few water cups, and the vast world of the World Table Tennis Championships and the Olympic Games is waiting for him to create a miracle!
In an era, there must be someone to lead, to take responsibility, to bless Xiao Fat!
