The top four men's singles are Wang, Fan Zhendong, Malone and Hugo of Brazil. Of these four people, the only variable is Hugo of Brazil. He is the champion of WTT Regular Challenge in Tunisia in 2022 and the champion of men's singles in Doha in 2023, and his strength cannot be underestimated. Now Fan Zhendong's back injury has become a stumbling block on the way forward. Wang may win against Fan Zhendong, and Malone and Hugo have a great chance, even if Malone stumbles.
And the king and the winner of Fan Zhendong continued to attack. At the end of 2023, the WTT men's singles final was crowded with experts, which was a comprehensive test of the technical and tactical application of table tennis players and coaches, a good opportunity to examine the comprehensive strength of table tennis players, and also a thorough investigation of the players who posed the greatest threat to foreign countries, so as to train and improve in a targeted manner after the game.
