there is no need to worry too much about ma long's retirement. according to his competitive state, he will have no problem playing for another ten years. he really wants to retire because he cannot beat the young players, but how many players in the national table tennis team can beat ma long? even fan zhendong may not dare to say so.

in fact, many foreign table tennis players tend to have relatively long careers, such as waldner, persson and boll, who still insist on playing in their 40s and 50s. table tennis consumes less physical energy than football or basketball, so ma long is still in the golden period of his sports career at this age.

some people think that ma long's resignation is not in line with the tradition of the national table tennis team, and mention liu guoliang, kong linghui, ma lin, wang hao and wang liqin, who announced their retirement before ma long's age. however, the reality is that ma long's competitive state is still excellent. he successfully won the world cup this year. such an achievement is incomparable, so why rush to retire?
