The life path of the national table tennis goddess Poplar began to practice table tennis at the age of 5
Table tennis, although not originating from China, has always occupied a dominant position in the international arena and is known as the "national sport".
When it comes to Chinese female table tennis players, it is easy to think of Grand Slam players such as Zhang Yining, Deng Yaping, and Wang Nan, but among the many stars, the goddess of national table tennis, Bai Yang, is unknown.
The strength of national table tennis has made many outstanding players stand out, and Poplar is no exception. She is not only outstanding in her own strength, but also has a close relationship with Ma Lin and Liu Guozheng.
01 Sacrificial Poplar shows a courageous spirit in the game, but shows a gentle and amorous side in life. Her appearance is fresh and refined, and she is a high-profile goddess inside and outside the team.
She started playing at the age of 5 and after 10 years of hard training, she has mastered the skills of holding a racket with her left hand. The young Poplar was soon selected for the national team and became the "hopeful star of Chinese women's table tennis".
She won both the women's singles and women's doubles at the World Junior Championships, and won the women's singles championship and the women's doubles runner-up at the National Championships. In the mixed doubles, Poplar also won the China Open, the British Open and other major tournaments. However, her light was eclipsed before the future could really shine.
In the 2003 World Table Tennis Championships, the Chinese team entered the final with two pairs of Ma Lin, Wang Nan, Liu Guozheng and Bai Yang. In the match, Poplar lost points to a controversial decision that ultimately led to a loss in the team competition. The defeat meant a lot to her, leaving her deeply disappointed and uncomfortable.
02 On the eve of the 2004 Athens Olympics, Poplar's relationship with Marin ** was expelled from the national team. This strictly enforced rule forced her to leave the national team.
After returning to the Hebei provincial team, Baiyang's mood and state became confused. Despite being involved in many competitions in the following competitions, she never showed the level she should have been. However, she didn't give up and continued to train hard in an attempt to regain her lost peak form.
However, in the mixed doubles final of the 2005 World Championships in Shanghai, Bai Yang and Liu Guozheng lost to Wang Liqin and Guo Yue, and once again missed out on the world champions. Although Liu apologized to her again, Poplar's heart was shaken, and she began to wonder if she could achieve her World Title dream.
Poplar returned to the national team, where she and Liu Guozheng trained hard, but they lost again in the mixed doubles final of the 2010 World Championships. Topol's determination has taken another blow, and the World Title seems to be getting farther and farther away from her.
However, Poplar did not choose to give up. In 2010, she became a member of the Physical Work Brigade of the Political Department of the Chinese People's Liberation Army of the People's Liberation Army through special recruitment. Her persistence and hard work eventually led to her successful promotion to colonel, and in 2021, she became a staff officer of the Physical Work Brigade of the Political Department of the Armed Police.
Poplar's career has had its ups and downs, but she has persevered and shown the tenacity of Chinese athletes. Today, she lives happily ever after, full of smiles.
