On December 11, the 2023 Chengdu Table Tennis Mixed Team World Cup has just ended, and there is another good news:
Liu Guoliang, President of the Chinese Table Tennis Association, First Vice President of the International Table Tennis Federation, and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the WTT World Table Tennis Federation, announced that the Men's and Women's Singles World Cups will return in April 2024 in Macau, China
The fans were really happy and said:
Sun Yingsha won two women's singles gold medals in the World Cup Finals, but she is not a world champion, and now she finally waited for good news!
Wang Manyu, Wang Chuqin and others did not have a singles gold medal in the World Cup, and they were all very happy.
The Olympic Games, the World Table Tennis Championships, and the World Cup are called the "three major competitions" in table tennis, and the team gold medal is also the world champion, and the individual competition is also the world champion.
With 1500 points, you can't hold it up, right?
So here's the problem!The official positioning of the ITTF, the Olympic Games, the World Championships, and the WTT Grand Slam are tied for the first-class events (2000 championship points)!
The World Cup and WTT Finals are tied for the second-level events (1500 championship points), but in China, the National Sports Administration of China gave the World Cup champion the title of "World Champion", but did not give the WTT Grand Slam champion the title of "World Champion"!
It's not fair, which is the bigger tournament of the WTT Grand Slam, which is not a world champion with 2000 points, or the World Cup, which is a world champion with 1500 points?
Sun Yingsha is very tired, she has to rest well, there are too many competitions in 2023, and now the athletes are working so hard, competing one after another. The cold is full, the pressure is high, and the athletes are strong.
Representation:
On December 11th, we want to cheer for Sun Yingsha, Wang Manyu, and Wang Chuqin, the World Cup gold medal belongs to the world champion, and Sun Yingsha is going to start the journey of harvesting the world champion!The women's singles gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics and the women's singles championship at the World Cup are in hand, and Sun Yingsha is also a new super slam.
Let's talk about it, don't you mean that?
