Most countries use players that hail from PRC, make them citizens of that country and ask them to compete in table tennis.  Most of the time the matches are China vs China players.... Big Grin

Btw, the current men's number 1, Fan Zhengong had a friendly with Chen Meng before and lost. So the women's team is not inferior to the men.

Actually nowadays it's getting easier to be better than others. All the information is out there, just a matter whether you want to learn or not, and since most people only want to be comfortable, you only have to put in that little extra effort.

I remember when I was small, during recess all of us will rush to the hall to play table-tennis or play 'one-leg'. Then after school, will either play football or basketball.

Don't know what children do nowadays.

Extra effort n consistency works hand in hand... if one lacks in one results will show... just like in football form is temporary class is permanent... so it is very obvious y golden boy lost... even more in last place!

Those were the days, when children are free to play whatever sports/games they choose.  These days they are  more tech savvy and play with their computers/laptops.... Big Grin

China has always been good since the Pioneer generation. I remembered watching them on TV playing exhibition matches with long rallies in my younger days.
