on september 24, beijing time, the international table tennis federation announced the world rankings for the 39th week of 2024. wang chuqin and sun yingsha are still the world's no. 1 in men's and women's singles, with sun yingsha leading by a huge margin of 9,400 points. six chinese table tennis players are among the top ten in the world in men's singles, and five are among the top ten in the world in women's singles. the group advantage is quite obvious. the china grand slam will kick off in two days. the grand slam events have higher points, which may lead to greater changes in the world rankings.

in the 39th week of the world rankings, the top ten men's singles players are wang chuqin, fan zhendong, hugo calderano, liang jingkun, felix lebrun, ma long, lin shidong, lin gaoyuan, zhang benzhihe, and lin yunru. since fan zhendong withdrew from the macau championships, the china grand slam, and the montpellier championships in france, the ranking will have a great impact. before withdrawing from the macau championships, many chinese table tennis players have been assigned 0 points, which is indeed a bit helpless.

liang jingkun is only 45 points behind hugo calderano in this ranking. if he can achieve good results in the china grand slam, he has a chance to overtake. with lin shidong winning the macau championship and breaking into the world's top ten, china's table tennis team has 6 seats in the world's top ten men's singles, and the group advantage is quite obvious. in addition, ma long will participate in the china grand slam and have the opportunity to continue to improve his ranking. however, lin gaoyuan is only 15 points ahead of zhang benzhihe and may fall out of the top ten at any time, so he needs to give it a try.

the top ten women's singles players in the world are sun yingsha, chen meng, wang manyu, wang yidi, hina hayata, chen xingtong, zhang ben miwa, shin yubin, ito mima, and zheng yijing. sun yingsha currently has 9400 points, while chen meng has 6590 points. it can be said that sun yingsha is leading by a large margin. in addition, chen meng also withdrew from the macau championships, the china grand slam, and the montpellier championships in france. her ranking may decline in the future.

china's top five players are still in the top ten in women's singles, and no other young player can catch up as strongly as lin shidong. qian tianyi ranks 18th in women's singles, which is the closest player, but the gap is obvious. although many of china's main players are relatively young, such as sun yingsha and wang manyu, who are in their prime, chen meng, wang yidi and chen xingtong are not young anymore, and the echelon construction of the chinese women's table tennis team also faces huge challenges.

in the three doubles events, ma long/wang chuqin ranked first in the world in men's doubles, and the chinese table tennis team took the top three in the world in men's doubles. chen meng/wang manyu ranked first in the world in women's doubles, and wang chuqin/sun yingsha still ranked first in the world in mixed doubles, and they are also in a state of leading by a large margin. lin shidong/kuai man are currently ranked fifth in the world in mixed doubles. this young combination is highly expected in the new olympic cycle. i hope that the two can train hard and make continuous progress, especially kuai man's women's singles will also catch up!
