Chen Meng beat the odds as Sun Yingsha was the favorite to win the match, having been world #1 since June 2022. The pair also met in the same event at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, where Meng won 4-2. Chen Meng now joins Deng Yaping and Zhang Yining as the only table tennis players to win back-to-back gold medals in women’s singles at the Olympics. China continues its dominance in the sport, having won the gold medal for women’s singles since 1988.
Been playing since 9 years old and now mostly for hobby. Also do software on the sideline for fun.
