Your comments and ideas about this person
She shows that hard work beats talent.
She proves age doesn't matter.
(She succeeded while still young!)
I admire her “never give up” spirit.
Sun Yingsha, one of China’s brightest table tennis stars, proves that success comes from never giving up. She faced tough challenges early in her career, including losses in major games and pressure to perform. However, she overcame these by training relentlessly and analyzing her mistakes.
Her efforts paid off. In the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, she won silver, and by 2023, she became World Champion and world No. 1. Like Su Bingtian, Sun shows that age doesn’t limit success—she achieved greatness while still in her early 20s!
I admire Sun because she teaches us to “fight fears and stick to dreams.” Her story reminds me of the phrase: “Nothing is impossible as long as you try.” She is truly the “Su-perman” of table tennis!
