Competing with worries and frustration about the situation at home, Wang Chuqin finally won the men's singles championship at the 2025 WTT Chongqing Championships on the 16th. At this year's WTT Chongqing Championships, it was no surprise that China, the strongest country on the surface, fought in both the men's and women's singles finals, with Wang Chuqin defeating Lin Shidong 4-1 (11-4, 6-11, 11-7, 11-5, 11-6) in the men's singles final to snatch back the world No. 1 throne from the junior.
Wang Chuqin suppressed the worry and frustration of the situation at home to compete, and finally won the men's singles championship at the WTT Chongqing Championship.
This is Wang's third title this season after winning the men's singles gold medal at the Asian Cup and the men's doubles title with Lin Shidong at the Singapore Grand Slam. Wang Chuqin also made up for the regret of losing to his senior brother Fan Zhendong in the final of this event last year.
Wang Chuqin: It's been a very difficult week. When Wang Chuqin scored the last point in this final, he put down his racket and stood at the table, put his hands together and touched his head, and then pointed upwards. He said after the game: "It was not a gesture to the fans, it was to my family, and I learned something during the game. In fact, this week has been very difficult, very tormenting, and I am very disappointed, but after all, I am fighting for the country, and I have to go all out to face every game. I think this is also a responsibility for my profession as an athlete, including for the identity of the Chinese table tennis national team. ”
"I feel like I've done it, and I want my family to see this title of mine, including that gesture, and hopefully bring good luck to my family." It seems that there seems to be some serious situation in Wang Chuqin's home, but he is busy with the game and cannot return to his family, so Wang Chuqin can only express his feelings in this way.
Sun Yingsha successfully defended her women's singles title at this year's WTT Chongqing Championships
World No. 1 Sun Yingsha defended her title with a 4-0 (11-7, 11-4, 12-10, 11-7) win in the Women's Singles final against world No. 4 Chen Xingtong and won the title again this year after the Singapore Grand Slam.
Sun Yingsha said that she regretted not having enough time to travel in Chongqing because she had to participate in the next event non-stop: "I think I should go back and have a good rest, because it is true that I have to rush to the next competition tomorrow, and it is more about physical recovery." But of course, I think I will go to the more famous places in Chongqing tomorrow when I have time, but I don't have enough time to sleep. "I've come here to compete for two years in a row, and I really don't have time to go shopping, maybe I will retire in the future, maybe I will have more time."
