Career

edit

2019

edit

In the 2019 World Team Cup, Sun came back from down 10–7 in the deciding fifth game to defeat Mima Ito in the finals against Japan. In an interview in 2021, Sun referred to this match as her precious match.[5]

2021

edit

Sun started out 2021 as number two in the world rankings.[6] However, after China's decision to withdraw from all international events until the Tokyo Olympics,[7] Mima Ito passed Sun for the number two position in the world rankings.[8] In April, ITTF amended the seeding system for the Olympics such that she would be seeded above Mima Ito.[9]

2023

edit

On October 1, in the women's singles final of the Hangzhou Asian Games, Sun defeated Japan's Hina Hayata 4-1 to win gold. This was also Sun's third gold medal after winning both team and mixed doubles. This marked China's seventh consecutive championship in the women's singles competition at the Asian Games.[10]


The 2024 Paris Olympics won mixed doubles gold, women's team gold and women's singles silver, with the mixed doubles gold also being the first mixed doubles gold medal for the Chinese table tennis team.[11]
