Ma Long: The prelude to the farewell of the table tennis legend?
The feat of the World Table Tennis Championships in Busan has come to an end, and the 11th consecutive championship of the Chinese men's team has become the focus of the court, however, at the moment when Ma Long's last ball fell, the audience couldn't help but notice his heavy steps. This scene has caused people to wonder, is Ma Long about to usher in a turning point in his table tennis career?
Marlon at the decisive moment
Malone's speech made people feel the complexity of his heart. He said it was an unforgettable trip, but it was also his last trip to the World Championships. The heaviness and choking revealed in these words made people worry about the future of this table tennis legend. The difficulties and challenges that Malone has endured, especially in the semi-final against South Korea, have raised doubts about his future career.
Struggles and decisions
Malone's rhetoric seemed to suggest that he might be thinking about some important decision. Although he said that this was the last World Championships, he did not make it clear whether he would choose to retire. For an athlete who measures everything by his ranking in the arena, Malone no longer cares too much about winning or losing, he is more like a hexagonal warrior, proving himself with his persistence and love.
Age Restrictions
However, the reality is often harsh. Although Malone is still giving it his all, it is not difficult to see the impact of age on him in recent performances. At the end of the race, his stride seemed unusually heavy, which seemed to be a physical limitation of his age. As fans, we hope to see Malone at the Olympics again, but it's still unclear whether that will happen.
Possibility of decommissioning
Although Malone has not officially announced his retirement, his words and deeds have already made people think about this issue. His teammate Wang Hao's comfort and encouragement to him after the game may also hint at the worry and expectation in their hearts. As fans, we hope to see Malone fight again before his retirement, because he is not only a good athlete, but also a great coach.
What to expect in the future
The Chinese table tennis team will usher in more challenges and events after the World Table Tennis Championships in Busan, and the players need to continue to work hard to fight for national honor. As fans, we hope that they can perform well again in future competitions, especially Ma Long, and we hope that he can continue his legacy.
Conclusion
Ma Long may be about to usher in a turning point in his table tennis career, but the footprints he left behind will forever be engraved in the history of table tennis. Whatever decision he chooses, we will look forward with reverence and anticipation for him to continue to shine in his future life's journey.
