On 9 July, ITTF announced the Week 28 2024 World Ranking List. Influenced by the invalidation of the old points in last year’s WTT Ljubljana Ballon d’Or and the injection of new points in this year’s WTT Bangkok Ballon d’Or, the positions of a number of famous players have changed, among which Liang Jingkun and Ma Long have risen to the second and the third respectively, while Fan Zhendong<\/a> has dropped to the fourth, and Lin Gaoyuan, Harimoto Tomokazu, and Mitsuru Ito have also improved.<\/p>

It is worth mentioning that this edition of the rankings has also decided the individual seeding seats for the Paris Olympics in advance, with Wang Chuqin, Sun Yingsha and Wang Chuqin\/Sun Yingsha currently leading and topping the list in Men’s Singles, Women’s Singles and Mixed Doubles, for more details, please see below.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The most important international tournament in the Chinese table tennis team last week was the WTT Bangkok Ballon d’Or in Thailand, in which only two Chinese table tennis team athletes, Chen Xingtong and Lin Gaoyuan, took part, but unfortunately they all folded, with Chen Xingtong only stopping in the last eight of the women’s singles, but even if she won the title, she couldn’t overtake Hina Sawada in front of her, and additionally she wasn’t overtaken by Miwa Changmoto behind her, so she still remains in the world’s sixth position at this point in time.<\/p>

As for Lin Gaoyuan, although he lost 0-4 to Harimoto Tomokazu, he reached the men’s singles final, so he moved up in the rankings and overtook Chinese Taipei’s Lin Yunru to move back into the world’s seventh position.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Both Japanese players who won the WTT Bangkok Ballon d’Or moved up in the rankings, and very much in sync: Harimoto Tomokazu went from 10th in the men’s singles to 9th, as did women’s singles champion Misaki Ito, and women’s singles runner-up Hashimoto Fanuka soared 98 places to her current ranking of 41st.<\/p>

The top 10 athletes in the latest singles world rankings and in order are: Wang Chuqin, Liang Jingkun, Ma Long, Fan Zhendong, Junior Lebron, Hugo, Lin Gaoyuan, Lin Yunru, Zhangmoto Tomokazu, and Francesca, as well as Sun Yingsha, Wang Manyu, Wang Yidi, Chen Meng, Harimoto Tomokazu, Chen Xingtong, Harimoto Tomokazu, Shin Yubin, Ito Misaku, and Szczukos<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t


Although Fan Zhendong, Chen Meng is currently only ranked fourth in the world, but because Liang Jingkun, Ma Long, Wang Manyu, Wang Yidi not to participate in the Olympic singles, so they are still the second seed, as for Wang Chuqin, Sun Yingsha’s position as the top seed is more difficult to shake.<\/p>

Doubles, the Chinese table tennis team Wang Chuqin \/ Sun Yingsha, Ma Long \/ Wang Chuqin, Chen Meng \/ Wang Manyu continue to reign first, and with the recent five consecutive international tournaments 4 crowns and 1 runner-up results, the Japanese team Harimoto Tomokazu \/ Hayata Hina finally surpassed South Korea’s Lim Jong-hoon \/ Shin Yu-bin, ranked the world’s second place, and thus locking the second seed of the Paris Olympics seat.<\/p>

As for the July team ranking, it will be updated on the 16th, so wait for the official website to release the latest list.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Influenced by the invalidation of the old points in last year's WTT Ljubljana Ballon d'Or and the injection of new points in this year's WTT Bangkok Ballon d'Or, the positions of a number of famous players have changed, among which Liang Jingkun and Ma Long have risen to the second and the third respectively, while Fan Zhendong has dropped to the fourth, and Lin Gaoyuan, Harimoto Tomokazu, and Mitsuru Ito have also improved.It is worth mentioning that this edition of the rankings has also decided the individual seeding seats for the Paris Olympics in advance, with Wang Chuqin, Sun Yingsha and Wang Chuqin\/Sun Yingsha currently leading and topping the list in Men's Singles, Women's Singles and Mixed Doubles, for more details, please see below.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/sanweisport.com\/en\/chinese-table-tennis-teams-latest-ittf-world-ranking-announced-fan-zhendong-drops-to-fourth-liang-jingkun-second-ma-long-third\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/sanweisport.com\/en\/chinese-table-tennis-teams-latest-ittf-world-ranking-announced-fan-zhendong-drops-to-fourth-liang-jingkun-second-ma-long-third\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/sanweisport.com\/en\/chinese-table-tennis-teams-latest-ittf-world-ranking-announced-fan-zhendong-drops-to-fourth-liang-jingkun-second-ma-long-third\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/sanweisport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/ITTF-World-Ranking.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/sanweisport.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/ITTF-World-Ranking.jpg","width":757,"height":561},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/sanweisport.com\/en\/chinese-table-tennis-teams-latest-ittf-world-ranking-announced-fan-zhendong-drops-to-fourth-liang-jingkun-second-ma-long-third\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/sanweisport.com\/en\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Chinese table tennis team’s latest ITTF World Ranking announced!
