History of World War II

The First World Table Tennis Championships

Originally the "First European Table Tennis Championships", it was called the "First World Table Tennis Championships" after the game.

1In the early 1920s, the British Table Tennis Association formulated the earliest rules of table tennis competition and held a grand All-England Championship. However, the champion was won by Indian Nada. Nada then visited Germany. The first International Table Tennis Invitational Tournament 1926 1 was proposed by Dr. Lyman of Germany. During the competition, a symposium was held, and a historic decision was made at the meeting: the temporary ITTF was established, and the first ITTF Congress was held in June 5438+February of that year, and the British Table Tennis Association was entrusted to host the first European Championship.

Seven teams from Germany, Hungary, Austria, India, Wales, Czechoslovakia and Britain were invited to participate in the team competition, and athletes from the above seven countries, Sweden and Denmark also participated in the individual competition. The total number of athletes is 64 men and 65,438+06 women.

The representative of India objected to the name of the competition, and ITTF decided to change the name immediately after the competition and approved the competition as the World Table Tennis Championships.

The competition was held in Memovol Hall, Flinton Street, London. There are five events: men's team, men's singles, men's doubles, women's singles and mixed doubles, which adopt British rules, and each game is 2 1 point. Male and female players are not wearing sportswear and sneakers, but wearing suits and long skirts and carrying heavy rackets. Hundreds of spectators watched the game for free. The Times sent a reporter to cover the game.

After five days of fierce fighting, Hungary won the fifth championship, and the men's team ranked as follows: Austria, Britain, India, Wales, Czechoslovakia and Germany. Yakobi and Medyanski became the first world champions in men's singles and women's singles respectively.

The 13th World Table Tennis Championships before World War II

After the first World Table Tennis Championships, table tennis has attracted more attention in a wider range. Romania, Yugoslavia, France and Japan (rejoined on 50-5 1) and Egypt joined ITTF in the late 1920s, and the United States, Australia and New Zealand joined in the 1930s. Before World War II, ITTF had 28 members and members.

However, most of the participating associations are European countries, with a minimum of seven at a time and a maximum of 18. Winners are confined to Europe, among which Hungary is the most outstanding, followed by Czechoslovakia. Only the United States and India compete in other continents, and most of the athletes are students living in Britain. 1939. The venue of the World Table Tennis Championships was moved out of Europe for the first time, and table tennis expanded to the Middle East.

The women's team competition started on 1933- 1934, and only teams from Hungary, Czech Republic, Britain, Netherlands, Germany and France participated.

During this period, great changes have taken place in table tennis equipment, rules and techniques:

The first ITTF conference adopted two trial scoring methods, one is tennis scoring method and the other is 2 1 scoring method. 1928 decided to adopt the scoring method of 2 1 until today. 1936 specifies the game time and the flexibility of the table, and the net is reduced to 15.25 cm.

The appearance of hard balls and rubber rackets increased the speed and rotation of the ball. Some players use the remote table to chop the ball, try forehand and backhand attacks, and their technical level keeps moving forward. At that time, American players used fingers that didn't clap their hands to increase the rotation of the ball when serving. This method is limited by rules.

The original platform is narrow and the net is high, the athletes' tactics are simple, and they are mostly close to the table, with smooth defense as the main task. Thus, a "marathon" appeared.

World War II interrupted the World Table Tennis Championships for eight years.

Judging from the competition results, except for the sixth, tenth, eleventh and thirteenth sessions, the other nine sessions were won by Hungary, twice by Czechoslovakia, once by Austria and once by the United States. Czechoslovakia won the women's team championship three times, Germany twice and the United States once. The most outstanding individual is Hungarian Barna, who won five men's singles titles, eight doubles titles and two mixed doubles titles. The best female player is Medyansky, who won the first five women's singles titles, six women's doubles and six mixed doubles titles.

14 to 18 World Table Tennis Championships

After World War II, table tennis became active again. 1In August, 947, the 14th World Table Tennis Championships was held in Paris for the first time after the war. Iran became the second member association in Asia. Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay in South America joined the club one after another.

Czechoslovakia beat the United States in the men's team final and won the first post-war championship. Then, in New Zealand, the Swislin Cup was won in the 15, 17 and 18 sessions. Hungary ranked second and won the16th men's team championship. Facas, a famous female player, won the women's singles titles of 14, 15 and 16 in succession. She also won two women's doubles and three mixed doubles championships in cooperation with others.

The Romanian women's team dominated the World Table Tennis Championships for the first time after the war was the17th World Table Tennis Championships. The women's team defeated Hungary in the final and won the championship again the following year with unbeaten record. Romanian player Rozianu, who won the women's singles championship the most times in the history of table tennis, started from the17th session and continued until the 22nd session. She also cooperated with Sido and others in Hungary and won the mixed doubles championship three times in a row.

By the 18 th session, the players basically hold the racket horizontally, which is also commonly known as the European style.

The 19th National Congress: A Historical Turning Point

Japan Table Tennis Association joined ITTF as early as 1928, but it was too late to participate in the World Table Tennis Championships. No one expected that the Japanese participation would bring great changes to the world table tennis. Won the men's singles, men's doubles, women's team and women's doubles championships in one fell swoop.

Japanese players play with a long forehand draw, which is mainly offensive and has strong lethality. The sponge invented in Austria was made into a Japanese wand, which hit the ball quickly and quietly, making it difficult for opponents to judge and deal with it. Hiroshi Sato swept European stars and became the first world champion in Japan and Asia. An American commented: "In Mumbai, India, the Japanese came in with new technology and new spirit, which reversed the development trend of table tennis almost overnight, leaving many Europeans too late to marvel ..."

The rise of Japan broke the 35-year European rule over world table tennis (including the World Table Tennis Championships that were not held for 8 years during the Second World War) and moved the advantages of world table tennis eastward. Two years later, Japan won the men's and women's team championship at the 2nd1World Table Tennis Championships, and then won the men's team championship four times in a row. Women, from the 24th 1957 to 1963, won the team championship four times in a row. After Sato, Ichiro Okura and Liming Tanaka each won two men's singles titles. Among the female players, from the 23rd Okawa Fufu in 1956 to the 30th in 1969, there are players who have won singles titles again and again, such as Fujiichi Kawaguchi, Matsuda of Jing Daole, Jinshen of Shangzi, Morizawa of Xing Zi and Toshiko Owada. Only the 26th session was won by Qiu Zhonghui of China. Counting the seven World Table Tennis Championships from 1952 to 1959, 49 champions were taken away by Japan. Therefore, people called the 1950s the Japanese era.

From a technical point of view, the Japanese ended the situation that the horizontal racket dominated the world, reversed the history of dominating the world with chopping, and established the historical position of offensive play. The era of glue racket was replaced by the era of sponge racket. The Japanese brought a revolution to table tennis and made great contributions to the development of table tennis in the world.

This is the first time that the World Table Tennis Championships have been held in Asia. Teams from Afghanistan, Cambodia, Pakistan, Hong Kong, Singapore and Japan participated for the first time.

Game 20: China's players show their talents.

65438-0953 In the 20th World Table Tennis Championships held in Bucharest, Romania, the newly rising Japanese team did not participate, and all the champions came from Europe, while Britain and Romania won the men's and women's team championships respectively. This is also the only men's team champion that Britain, the birthplace of table tennis, won in the history of the World Table Tennis Championships. Seedo of Hungary won the men's singles, men's doubles and mixed doubles, Rozianu of Romania won the women's singles for the fourth time (the next two times), and she also won the women's doubles and mixed doubles (in cooperation with Seedo).

In this competition, China athletes made their debut at the World Table Tennis Championships. The men's team composed of Jiang Yongning, Feng and Wang Chuanyao defeated Sweden, Austria and Switzerland, but lost to Britain, Hungary and Czechoslovakia. The team ranked fourth and was rated as the tenth in the world first-class team. The women's team composed of Sun Meiying and Li Linshu defeated the Federal Republic of Germany, and also won the fourth place in the group and was named the third place in the second-class team. No one broke into the forefront of personal projects.

A new army, after the first contest, achieved good results, but also obviously lagged behind, not only in equipment, but also in physical fitness and skills and tactics. What is commendable is that China athletes are not discouraged and determined to catch up.

The 2nd1Session: The Japanese team is back.

After hiding for one session, the Japanese team participated in the World Table Tennis Championships held at Wembley, England for the second time. Although I won one less champion than the first time, I won all three main champions: men's team, women's team and men's singles. Ichiro Tomura became the second Japanese men's singles world champion.

Because Japan did not participate in the 20th World Table Tennis Championships, the dispute over sponge rackets was almost forgotten, which made Sido and Rozianu, who held rubber rackets, gain the upper hand. This argument has started again. ITTF held another meeting to discuss, and President montague decided to "wait and see". Although Europeans have opinions, some players from Sweden, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia and other countries also picked up sponge bats. However, the Japanese women's team is also made of rubber. China did not participate in this competition, but when ITTF announced the annual team ranking 1954- 1955, the men's team in China retained the position of the first team and the women's team retained the position of the second team.

22nd session: Romanian women's team won the championship again.

At the17th World Table Tennis Championships, the Romanian women's team regained the women's team champions' cup from the United States. The19th Japanese women's team dominated, but the 20th was won back by Romania. In the 22nd competition, Romania won the championship from Japan. Romania's famous female player Rozianu has won the women's singles championship for the sixth time, becoming the only winner of the singles "six consecutive championships" in the history of World War II.

The Japanese men's team retained the team championship, and Dawn Tanaka replaced Tomura as the men's singles champion. This competition was held in Utrecht, the Netherlands from April 1955 to June 24th. This is the largest international competition since Lanzhou hosted the 1928 Olympic Games. On the first night, the audience was very crowded. Many people crowded to the front to watch the ball, but the stands were in disrepair and some suddenly collapsed.

23rd session: China made new progress.

Since entering the 20th World Table Tennis Championships, China team has not participated in the 2nd1and 22nd World Table Tennis Championships, but the achievements made during this period have impressed the international table tennis community. At the Universiade held in Hungary from 65438 to 0954, China ranked second in table tennis, second only to Hungary, and third in men's and women's singles and men's doubles. 1In August, 955, the second International Friendship Games of Parent-child Year was held in Warsaw, Poland. Jiang Yongning won the silver medal in men's singles, and other players also beat Japan, Romania and France to win the second place in mixed doubles and the third place in men's and women's singles.

Until 1956 23rd World Table Tennis Championships, some world famous players warned their peers that China people are not weak. As soon as the curtain opened, the China Men's Team first faced the South Vietnamese team, which had won the Asian team championship and was regarded as the enemy by the Japanese team, and the United States, which once dominated. China athletes beat South Vietnam 5:/KLOC-0: first, and then beat the United States 5: 4. On the first day of the competition, they lost the top two, which made the table tennis people shake a lot. After that, I continued to break through the customs and broke the city again and again.

But in the end, I met the strongest opponent of the group-the British team. This team includes Bergman, who won four world championships, and Ricky, who won two world championships. China lost 2-5, but Jiang Yongning defeated Li Qi with tenacious fighting spirit, becoming the first player in China to beat the world champion in the World Table Tennis Championships. In this competition, the China men's team ranked sixth in the first class and the women's team advanced to the first class. The final result of this competition is that Japan won the men's team, men's singles and doubles and women's singles, Romania won the women's team and women's doubles, and the United States won the mixed doubles.

24th: China men's team reached the semi-finals.

Before the 24th World Table Tennis Championships, China was considered a "dark horse". 1957 In March, when 400 players from 35 countries and regions gathered in the Royal Gymnasium in Stockholm, Sweden, the China Men's Team was on the verge of collapse, almost easily defeating Scottish, Portuguese, Indian, Belgian, Swiss and Luxemburg teams with a score of 5: 0. In the end, against Romania, Wang Chuanyao scored 3 points, another attacker Fu Qifang scored 2 points and the kitchen knife Jiang Yongning lost 2 points. Finally, he won and was able to qualify. In the third group of women's team competition, China eliminated the United States, Denmark, Norway, Belgium, Wales, the Netherlands, Switzerland and other teams in succession. In the end, veteran Sun Meiying and novice Qiu Zhonghui fought hard with the second place in Class One, and succeeded again and again with fierce attacks, and finally won with 3:/kloc-0.

China men's and women's teams won the team championship and entered the top four. Reporters from major news agencies took photos to report this sensational news. A report said; "China men's and women's teams defeated the Romanian team, the last men's team champion, and the British team, the last women's team runner-up ... This amazing achievement is enough to make the little-known China table tennis team jump to the ranks of the world's top teams." "Before the game, Cunnington, the head coach of the British team, declared:' Our opponent is only Japan.' Who knows, China women will fight through the cracks and beat Haydn and Diane Rowe. Although the news is too simple to be believed, it is a fact and a harsh fact. "

In the men's team semi-final, China met a new advantage of the Japanese team. Japan has Ichiro Okimura, the world champion known as the "Ping-Pong Emperor" and the third emperor, Riming Tanaka, another world champion, and Kaoda Cape, the national champion of Japan. China still had Wang Chuanyao, Jiang Yongning and Fu Qifang, but their strength was not matched enough, and they lost by 1: 5. Wang Chuanyao defeated Dicun at an amazing speed and became an explosive news. Jiang Yongning is also considered as the best defender. Critics say that he "can accurately cut the ball to the table from a height close to the floor, which is amazing enough." His backhand chop is unique.

China women's team also met a tough opponent-Romanian team which won the women's team championship five times. Sun Meiying and Ye Peiqiong both defeated the world-class player Zeiler through hard struggle, but neither of them broke through Rozianu, the winner of the world women's singles "six consecutive championships", and the doubles was also a fiasco, losing the right to the final.

In individual events, China did not perform well, and only Jiang Yongning entered the semi-finals.

In the end, Japan won back the men's and women's teams, men's and women's singles and mixed doubles, and the men's and women's doubles were won by Czechoslovakia and Hungary respectively. China men's team jumped to the fourth place in the first team and the third place in the women's queue. Professor Wang and Sun Meiying ranked seventh for men and women respectively.

The 24th ITTF Congress held during the tournament decided to change the annual World Table Tennis Championships to biennial. China coach Liang Zhaohui was elected as a member of the Federation's Development Committee and Advisory Committee.

Game 25: Open the door to the world champion

Rong Guotuan won the men's singles championship in the 25th World Table Tennis Championships, which was the first world champion won by China people in the world sports competition.

Rong Guotuan didn't play well in the team competition, but he was not discouraged by it. In the singles competition, he carried forward the fighting spirit and reached the final all the way. His opponent is the men's singles champion of the 20th World Table Tennis Championships, Sido of Hungary. They used to pair up to play doubles, but now they are competing for the championship. T-Bag thinks he will win, and his companions also prepare flowers for him. However, according to the tactics stipulated by the team, Rong Guotuan frequently pulled the topspin to destroy the opponent's corner-forcing tactics, and finally won, which opened the door for China to win the world championship.

A flower attracts a hundred flowers. Rong Guotuan's victory is like primrose, which ushered in the spring of table tennis in China.

In the men's team competition, China defeated the Federal Republic of Germany 5-2 and Sweden 5-/kloc-0-0, and won the first place in the group, but lost to Hungary 3-5 in the semi-final, thus losing the chance of decisive battle with Japan.

The China women's team won the first place in the group by winning all eight games, but lost to the Japanese and Korean teams in the final, and won the third place as last time. Japan and South Korea won the championship and runner-up respectively.

In the women's singles competition, Qiu Zhonghui of China won the third place.

In this competition, the Japanese team won the sixth championship, and its strength can be seen. It only lost to Long Xin's men's singles champion for many years.

The 25th ITTF Congress held during the competition passed the Regulation on Racket Standardization by 72 votes to 19, ending the racket dispute that has lasted for many years since the 19.

26th: China won the team world championship for the first time.

The 26th World Table Tennis Championships was held in Beijing. This is the first time that China has hosted a world competition. The Swahilin Cup was also engraved with the word "China" for the first time.

1961On the evening of April 9, China and Japan fought a decisive battle. Previously, China had won teams from the Federal Republic of Germany, Ecuador, the Democratic Republic of Germany, Mongolia, Ghana, Nepal and Myanmar. The members of the China team are Rong Guotuan, Wang Chuanyao, Xu Yinsheng, Zhuang Zedong and Li Furong. In the final, Japanese, Hungarian and China, the top three teams, played round robin. China beat the Hungarian team 5-0/Kloc, and then sent Xu Yinsheng (2, 4, 7), Rong Guotuan (3, 6, 8) and Zhuang Zedong (1, 5, 9) to face the Japanese team. The other three contestants are Ichiro Tomura, Kenji Kimura and Akimi Hoshino. After fierce fighting, China finally won 5-3, winning the first team championship for China.

In the women's team final, China beat Romanian 3-2, but lost to Japanese 2-3. Japan beat Romania 5-0. As a result, the Japanese team won the championship and China won the runner-up.

In the men's singles competition, the top four were Zhang, Zhuang Zedong and Xu Yinsheng, and Zhuang Zedong was the champion and runner-up.

In the women's singles competition, Qiu Zhonghui defeated Romanian player Alexandru, teammate Han and Wang Jian, and won the final with a 3-2 victory over Hungarian player, becoming the first women's singles champion in China.

Japan won men's doubles and mixed doubles, while Romania won women's doubles. In this competition, the Japanese team brought the "secret weapon" loop ball topspin. However, during their visit to China, the Hungarian team, who had visited Japan, revealed the news that Japan was practicing curling hard. Because China is ready, the loop ball is not as good as the fast break near Taiwan Province. But it has far-reaching significance for the development of table tennis technology in the world.

27th: China and Japan are equally divided.

After winning the championship in the 26th session, some people think that China has the advantages of favorable weather, geographical location and people, which may not work in other countries. Some people say that China athletes have good personal skills. Doubles are no match for the Japanese. As a result, China athletes won the men's team, singles and doubles championships in the 27th World Table Tennis Championships held in Prague. Facts have proved that China's players can do it abroad, and they are the best in doubles. However, all the events in which female athletes participate will be won by Japan. China and Japan are almost neck and neck in this competition.

After winning the group qualifying rights with a string of 5: 0, the China Men's Team won the final with 5:/kloc-0:. In the final against Japan, 5:/kloc-0:, won the men's team championship again. In this game, Zhang and Xu Yinsheng scored two points each, and Zhuang Zedong lost a set and won a set. In the women's team competition, the China women's team entered the semi-finals after winning the first place in the group with seven wins in seven games, but lost to the Romanian team 2-3 in the semi-finals. In the end, the Japanese team and Romanian team won the championship and runner-up, and China ranked third.

In individual events, Zhuang Zedong and Li Furong won the men's singles championship and runner-up respectively, just like last time. Three pairs of players from China entered the top four in men's doubles, Zhang, and won the championship. The women's singles champion was taken away by Song Qijun, and the women from China ranked third in singles, doubles and mixed doubles, just like the team competition. But players such as Lin Huiqing and Li Henan have already shown their advantages.

Japanese players have strengthened the power of loop ball, resumed the fierce play of long-distance draw, and have stronger strength. However, China's fast break is more mature, so his desire to win back the championship from China has not come true. European players not only learned to attack the ball, but also played a fast break, which made the marathon extremely rare, but the European technical style was still lingering.

28th session: Women's team turned over.

Since Qiu Zhonghui won the women's singles championship in the 26th World Table Tennis Championships, the China women's team made another beautiful turnaround in the 28th World Table Tennis Championships.

Attackers Liang Lizhen and Li Henan went all the way to the women's team finals. The opponent is the Japanese team.

China unexpectedly sent Hui Lin Qinghe Zheng to participate in the competition, which shocked the table tennis world. Two helicopters won 3-0. The China women's team won the Colombian Cup for the first time. Coach Rong Guotuan compared the competition process to Liang and Li Hualong, while Lin and Zheng made the finishing touch. Lin Huiqing personally rushed into the final, and unfortunately lost to Japan's Shangzi Jin Shen. Fortunately, she cooperated with Zheng to win the first women's doubles world championship for China.

After the China men's team defeated the Romanian team 5-0, they confronted the Japanese team in the final and won 5-2. China was played by Zhuang Zedong and Zhang against Gao, Kimura and Xiao Zhongjian. Gao played first, and then Zhuang Zedong. In the match between Li Furong and Kimura, the first two games were tied. In the crucial third game, Li fell behind by 16: 20, scored six points in a row and won by 22: 20.

Among the top four men's singles, three players are from China, and Zhuang Zedong and Li Furong, like the top two, won the championship and runner-up again. China scored the best in men's doubles, winning the top four. Zhuang Zedong and Xu Yinsheng finally won the championship. Zhang and Lin Huiqing also won the runner-up in mixed doubles. Japanese players won the women's singles and mixed doubles. In this competition, both men and women in China won the championship or runner-up, and their overall strength was unprecedented.

The North Korean men's team also achieved good results. The men's team ranked third.

So far, European players have not won the championship twice, and it is even difficult to enter the finals.

29th and 30th sessions: China was absent from Japan.

China did not participate in the 29th and 30th World Table Tennis Championships held in Nagoya, Japan and Sarajevo, Yugoslavia respectively, which made the Japanese team shine brilliantly. There were 14 champions in these two sessions, and Japan won 10. Men's team, men's singles and women's singles mixed doubles champions all belong to Japan.

The female players of the Soviet Union performed well in the 30th session and won the women's team championship, which was also the first championship won by the Soviet Union in the World Table Tennis Championships. Subsequently, Rudnova and Greenberg won the women's doubles championship. Sweden's Arce and Johansen won the men's doubles championship twice.

As China prepares to participate in the 29th World Table Tennis Championships, the "Cultural Revolution" is coming. But before that, Wang Zhiliang painstakingly studied and used two kinds of rubber skins with different properties, and achieved remarkable results, which laid the foundation for the birth of Liang Geliang and other "backhand" styles.

During this period, European players learned Japanese loop ball and China's fast break, combined with their own characteristics, formed the all-out attack method, and began to challenge the East.

Phase 3 1: Walking on thin ice.

197 1 The Battle of Nagoya in Spring was the first time that China participated in the World Table Tennis Championships after suspension. China brought the slogan "Friendship first, competition second", which led to the "ping pong diplomacy" that shocked the whole world.

China men's team participated in the team competition with Zhuang Zedong, Li Furong, Li Jingguang, Yun Enting and Liang Geliang. Zhang and He were not selected because they were older. Xu Yinsheng entered the competition as a coach for the first time.

In the Sino-Hungarian War, China won three sets first and then lost two sets in succession. China scored one more point, lost two points and tied. Finally, Liang Geliang, who participated in the competition for the first time at the age of 18, scored a key point. China narrowly won. In the Sino-Swiss War, it started as a draw, with China scoring two points and Sweden drawing 3-4. Finally, Li Jingguang ended the fierce fighting. In these two games, both Hungarian and Swiss lost to the third main force. Although Joan Ye played well with Crampa, Johnson and Gehlsen, it was difficult to win.

In the final match with the Japanese team, China played well. Among them, Li Jingguang not only hit a three-pointer, but also played a perfect role in the seventh game against the last men's singles champion Ito Fan Xiong. Ito was at a loss, with only 8 points in the first set and 6 points in the second set. China won back the trophy that she didn't have the chance to compete twice with 5: 2, but many people thought that this victory was treading on thin ice.

The women's team is also the final between China and Japan. On the second Panshan Mountain, Lin Huiqing was eager to win at a critical moment. The spike was out of bounds and lost at 23: 25. China finally won the second place with 1:3.

In men's singles, China only ranked third in Yunenting, and the champion was taken away by Sweden's Gehlsen, whose skills were in the rising stage.

Lin Huiqing, a female player from China, won three championships. In addition to singles, women's doubles cooperated with Zheng, and mixed doubles cooperated with talented woman Zhang. Zhang only reported the mixed doubles in this competition. Come back with the cup.

The 32nd session: China lost the team and won the singles.

Since the China men's team won the team championship in the 26th World Table Tennis Championships, except for two times, only the China team failed to win the team championship in the 32nd World Table Tennis Championships held in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia.

This year's competition adopted a new method of grading and grouping, and the two teams ordered them to play round robin to decide the ranking. China men's team only lost to Sweden in the group preliminaries, with a score of 4-5. Although the final won two games in a row, the result was two wins and one loss. Sweden beat China in the preliminary round. Although I lost a game in the final, the result was two wins and one loss, and I won the championship. China ranks second. Although Japan and the Soviet Union both won and lost, they also ranked third and fourth because of their preliminary results.

The Korean women's team achieved excellent results and won the championship with great victory. The China women's team beat the Hungarian team and the Japanese team and won the second place. In this competition, the most outstanding performance is Yun Enting. In the quarterfinals of men's singles, he is the only player from China. He first defeated Stepanchic of Yugoslavia 3-2, and then defeated Olovsky of Czechoslovakia 3-/kloc-0. In the final, I met Johansson of Sweden, fought hard for five games, and finally won by "pressing backhand" tactics. Hu Yulan participated in the World Table Tennis Championships for the first time. In the final, she beat Grofova 3-0, becoming the third women's singles world champion after Qiu Zhonghui and Lin Huiqing.

Gehlsen and Johansen of Sweden have made great contributions to Sweden. The former scored three points against China, while the latter narrowly beat China in the ninth set. They also won the men's doubles championship.

China's Liang Geliang and Li Li won the mixed doubles, while Romanian veteran Alexandru and Japanese player Hamada Misui cooperated to win the women's doubles.

The 34th: Birmingham Guild Wars

1977 To commemorate the 50th anniversary of ITTF, the 34th World Table Tennis Championships was held in Birmingham, England, the birthplace of table tennis.

In the group stage, the China men's team fought against the Hungarian team with the last men's singles champion Jonell, and won 5-3 in eight sets, and defeated Sweden 5-0 in the semi-final. In the final, Liang Geliang and Huang Liang with two different rackets and novice Guo Yuehua were sent to play, winning the cup 5-0 without any twists and turns. The only climax was Guo Yuehua's fifth set against Maehara Masahiro. The second set fell behind by 14: 20. Suddenly, with the help of God, he scored six points in a row and finally won with 23: 2 1.

In the final between the China women's team and the South Korean team, they sent Zhang Li and Zhang Deying instead of the last "raiders of the lost ark" Ge Xinai. Ge Xinai went to practice before the game. The other team invited players with rubber rackets to practice. As soon as the list was announced, the South Korean team was in a panic and lost 0-3. Zhang Deying won both singles in four games and doubles in three games 2-0.

The men's singles champion was won by Japanese player Manman Kono. Kono is a straight player who attacks from both sides, and his style of play is similar to that of Zhuang Zedong. In the women's singles competition, Park Young-soon of North Korea won the championship again. Yugoslav veterans Sulbek and Stipansic won the men's doubles championship. Women's doubles and mixed doubles were won by China.

Birmingham is the second largest city in Britain after London, but the competition was held on the concrete floor of an exhibition center. Although this does not meet the requirements of the rules, athletes and officials have complained, but to no avail.

The 35th Session: The Battle of Waterloo of China Men's Team.

In the history of table tennis in China, since the 26th China men's team failed to win the men's singles championship, the only time was the 35th.

In the men's team competition in the group stage, China sent Li Zhenshi, Liang Geliang and Guo Yuehua to play, and lost to the Hungarian team 2-5. After defeating Czechoslovakia, they competed with Hungary for the championship. Liang Geliang was replaced by novice user Qiwei, but still lost by 1:5. Only Guo Yuehua beat Qiong Ye in the fourth set and scored 1. The Hungarian team won the first men's team championship since 1952 with veteran Joan Ye, Klampar and novice Gergeli.

The men's singles champion should have belonged to China,
