TOURNAMENT 
2022 WTTTC 
Players from 49 countries took part in men’s singles and doubles events. This tournament did not feature the 2019 World champion Ma Long, so it was clear that we would see a new World champion incoming. As predicted before the singles event, the absence of Ma Long opened the door to the title to his fellow teammate – Fan Zhendong, who lost just four sets during the tournament and won the final in a dominating 4-0 performance.
His opponent in the final match – the 19-year old Swedish player Truls Moregardh overcame several higher-ranked players on the way to the final. However, it is fair to say that the draw played in his favor. The draw brought all the strongest Chinese players got in one pool. This is why Liang Jingkun was stopped in the semi-final and was awarded the bronze medal alongside the 41-year old German veteran Timo Boll, who lost to Moregardh 3-4.
