Preface
Chinese Taipei teenager Lin Yunru As a rising star in the table tennis world in the past two years, it has entered the fans' horizons. Some fans believe that his threat to the national table tennis team in the future will not be inferior to that of Japanese , Bentoshi, and the sixth person basically agrees with this view. With his own efforts and outstanding performance, his world ranking has soared to 7th place and has grown into one of the main opponents of the Chinese table tennis team.

Lin Yunru is young and his achievements cannot be underestimated. So, what kind of playing style did he reach his current position? What specific achievements have you achieved? What are the inspirations for the national table tennis team? What is the future potential? With these questions in mind, we will conduct in-depth analysis one by one.
is full of aura, outstanding expertise, comprehensive technology
Lin Yunru's playing style is different from that of ordinary young players. For example, he does not look like Zhang Benzhihe’s ruthlessness nor the domineering aura of Wang Chuqin. On the contrary, he has a very awesome ball game, is very good at changes and is delicate, and he hides needles in the cotton. He always feels like he has the shadow of Ma Long, the number one player in the national table tennis team.
First of all, Lin Yunru's style of playing can be summarized in three words: fast, change, and spirit.
The so-called "fast" is reflected in the early hitting point, fast reaction, fast connection, and fast ball speed.
Lin Yunru stands near the table, and has a strong sense of facing forward . He often catches the incoming ball up to the high point to hit the ball, giving people the feeling of playing as soon as they start. At the same time, the connection between the board and the board and the connection between the fore and backhand is fast, which is related to the amplitude of his batting movement. There are not too many big openings and closes, but some are closed and beats. He is also one step ahead in the adjustment of technical and tactical skills, so that he can always take the lead when attacking continuously and control the initiative in his own hands. These factors interact with each other. From the appearance, Lin Yunru's ball speed is particularly fast, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
The so-called "change" refers to Lin Yunru's reasonable play and changes, which is reflected in the opening of the line, the decisive position, and the good sense of rhythm.
is a left-handed play method, and it has some advantages in line control. It can be used freely for the combination of straight lines and diagonal lines, long and short landing points, and the ability to actively change lines and landing points control is often caught off guard by the opponent. Xiao Xiaolin is at ease in controlling the rhythm changes. You will find that he is not blindly seeking speed, but has changes in priorities.
The so-called "spirit" refers to a clear and flexible mind, a light body, a lightweight ball play, and a high tactical literacy.
It can be said that Xiao Xiaolin is a model of playing basketball with her brain, and it is rare to see him go all out. For different opponents, his technical and tactical preparations are very targeted and his ball-calculating ability is very strong. This kind of spiritual energy is also reflected in not winning with strength, but in both wisdom and courage. His body looks very light and light when playing the ball, with a bit of elegance, and can often achieve the effect of making a big move.
Secondly, from the perspective of technical characteristics, Lin Yunru is a new generation of players with outstanding specialties and relatively comprehensive skills.
has outstanding expertise, which is reflected in his particularly strong backhand ability. During the game of
, you can see that he used his backhand to deal with his opponents in the whole Taiwan, which shows that he is very confident in the backhand and is quite clear. The twisting of the ball inside the table is very distinctive, and the impact component is larger. The arc of the ball twisted over is low and flat, the landing points are rich, and the speed is very fast. The backhand reverse tearing technology is perfect, especially the large angle of the diagonal line is a killer technology.
technology is relatively comprehensive, and Lin Yunru has a strong backhand, which to a certain extent conceals his forehand ability.
Its forehand force frame is good and the movements are compact and smooth. However, his forehand has temporary defects of insufficient strength and insufficient explosive power, lack of killing boards, and the stalemate pulling and penetration of the Zhongyuan Platform is not enough.
At this stage, Xiao Xiaolin's forehand leverages more skills to fight for force, and the fast belt technology is used at a larger proportion. There is no way, the absolute power of the forehand is not enough, but this also reflects his smart side of playing basketball. As the saying goes: it is the best way to play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses.
The sixth person believes that: In general, Lin Yunru is a new generation of players with relatively comprehensive skills and outstanding expertise. He stands close to the stage, has strong ability to get started, plays elegantly but is steady, is full of aura and murderous aura, and has a rare overall view. It can be foreseeable that as he grows older, while maintaining his backhand skills, his improvement in his forehand ability will further his overall strength. In the long run, his threat to the national table tennis team cannot be underestimated.
move forward in a low-key manner, interpreting growth with achievements
Lin Yunru is introverted and does not show his emotions, which makes us a little elusive. However, in recent years, his achievements have been eye-catching. It seems common for the main players of the national table tennis team to be "upset" during the game. Obviously, the word "upset" is no longer appropriate to use Xiao Xiaolin. Lin Yunru's growth can be interpreted from the following data dimensions:
[World Ranking and Trend Chart]
Lin Yunru's latest world ranking: 7th place. Data source: ITTF official website.
Lin Yunru's world ranking trend chart in recent years, data source: ITTF official website.
Lin Yunru ranked 7th in the latest world ranking, down one place from the previous issue. From the ranking trend chart, it can be seen that Xiao Xiaolin has made significant progress. From the top 100 in early 2018 to the top 10 in the world rankings, it only took Lin Yunru more than two years, and the key is that he is less than 20 years old this year.
[Data Interpretation]:
At the beginning of this year, Lin Yunru withdrew from the Qatar Open, causing his ranking to decline in some small range. Even so, his ranking has hit a new high for the Chinese Taipei team in recent years. It can be seen that in addition to the main players of the Chinese table tennis team, there are two players ahead of Lin Yunru, one is Japanese star Tomokazu Kazuma (4th), and the other is Brazilian young player Calderano (6th). With his strength, if he continues to participate in the competition, it is only a matter of time before he surpasses Brazilian players and is likely to surpass Zhang Ben's ranking. Lin Yunru's world ranking trend chart reflects that his path to advance has not had big ups and downs, and his competitive state has shown a steady improvement. The sixth person believes that Lin Yunru has been and will continue to become the main opponent of the national table tennis team for a long time.
[Single and doubles win-loss relationship]

Lin Yunru 2017-2020 doubles win-loss relationship, data source: ITTF official website
singles: in 2017, he played 68 times , winning 51 times, winning rate of 75%; in 2018, he played as high as 83 times , winning 66 times, winning rate of 80%; in 2019, he played 68 times , winning 51 times, winning rate of 75%.

doubles: played 19 times in 2017, won 12 times, with a winning rate of 63%. played 34 times in 2018, won 24 times, with a winning rate of 71%. played 55 times in 2019, with a winning rate of winning 37 times, with a winning rate of 67%. In 2020, 9 appearances, winning rate of 5 games, with a winning rate of 55%.
[Data Interpretation]:
If we only look at the winning rate, Lin Yunru's singles and doubles performance is average. This is actually easy to understand. Our Chinese table tennis experts are everywhere. It is not easy for Lin Yunru to win our Chinese players in the early stage of the competition, but his number of participations is very high. He has made a total of 219 appearances in the three seasons of 2017-2019, which shows the importance of the Chinese Taipei team for this genius young player.With the accumulation of competition experience and the improvement of technical and tactical level, Lin Yunju began to make a name for himself on the international stage and began to have a strong impact on the national table tennis team. In addition to Xu Xin , Xiao Xiaolin has won against us. Among them, in the T2 business competition, he defeated Ma Long and Fan Zhendong to win the championship, and also defeated Mizutani Jun and Huang Zhenting and other table tennis players, which was amazing. In terms of doubles, the mixed doubles score is particularly worth paying attention to. His tacit understanding with his teammates , Zheng Yijing, and are getting better and better. In the 2019 season, he won the mixed doubles championships of the China Open and Hong Kong Open back to back. In the future, the performance of this sibling pair is worth looking forward to.
[Personal Important Competition Results]
young player Lin Yunru has not won the title of world championship so far, but it does not affect his upward trend at all. From the East Asian Junior Men's Singles Championship in 2012 to the 2019 ITTF Czech Open, Xiao Xiaolin has continuously achieved personal breakthroughs with her talent and hard work. In the 2019 Men's World Cup, he defeated Ma Long to win the third place. It is worth mentioning that he won the third place in his personal World Cup debut, and also won the first World Cup medal for the Chinese Taipei men's team.
In general, Lin Yunru is using his scores to perfectly interpret his personal abilities step by step. He is a powerful player who is not showing off his own strength. Every time the national table tennis team meets him, he is really careless. Ma Long, the top national table tennis team, believes that judging from his playing style and age, Lin Yunru is likely to become the main opponent of the national table tennis team in the future. Of course, the sixth person believes that the "possibility" can be removed here!
Cold-faced killer first grew up, and his inspiration to the national table tennis team
As mentioned above, Lin Yunru has advanced playing style, comprehensive skills, matches strength with grades, and keeps winning or losing. He looks more Buddhist, but no opponent will underestimate him, because he will suddenly defeat you, so he is named "Cold-faced killer". The sixth person in
felt that this cold-faced killer had a great general demeanor. He seemed to be calm on the field, but in fact he had a knife hidden in his smile. Although he lacks strength in playing basketball, he has a strong ability to use force, which is what we often call cleverness.
From Lin Yunru's growth process, the inspiration for the Chinese table tennis team can be extracted. The summary is as follows:
First, you must have a clear positioning for talent and acquired efforts.
Generally speaking, talent determines the upper limit, and effort determines the lower limit. Lin Yunru is very talented, but he still works very hard, has a clear understanding of his own problems, and checks for shortcomings and fills in daily training, and can achieve today's results and maintain operation at a high level. This is obviously the result of his talent and acquired efforts. The sixth person in
thinks that players who can be selected into the national team are naturally very talented, and such players will be the best soon, but the degree of acquired efforts will often determine how long your height can last. Especially for young players, they are easily confused by their own talents, complacent, and do not train hard, and they will become mediocre over time.
At this moment, the sixth person thought of a sentence and encouraged them together: People with talent are not scary than you, what is scary is that people with talent work harder than you
Second, as a top expert, you must take into account both your expertise and comprehensiveness. Start with special skills and keep your family alive!
The sixth person believes that special skills can help you make achievements quickly in the early stage of entrepreneurship. The so-called "one trick to eat everything." But when you reach a certain stage, especially when you have some fame, you will naturally become the target of public criticism. If others study you to target you, your shortcomings will be infinitely magnified by others. Once you cannot break through, it will be like entering a dead end and it will be difficult to extricate yourself. Therefore, the relative comprehensiveness of technology is very important.
For example, Lin Yunru's backhand is very strong, but the forehand is now in short supply, and the opponents all seize this point to make a breakthrough. Fortunately, there is not much problem with his forehand movement framework. As the strength increases, I believe it will become more and more comprehensive. Let me give you another counterexample. Japan's Tomokazu Kazumaki has a very strong backhand. In addition to lacking strength, the forehand movement is not smooth, which will greatly restrict his upper limit.This also explains why Lin Yunru's threat to the national table tennis team is no less than that of Zhang Ben.
For young Chinese table tennis players, no matter whether you start with the backhand or stand out forehand, you will inevitably move closer to the path of comprehensive technology in the future. The so-called: Different paths lead to the same destination, the great way is simple!
Third, control the desire to win well, and have a different opinion on Lin Yunru's Buddhist fighting style.
Lin Yunru seems to care about winning or losing in his face. I think this is an illusion, and Li Zi must also want to win. is just that he has a better attitude. This has nothing to do with his family education. His father Lin Xueyi taught Lin Yunru to play hard since childhood, but not to force it too much, "People and do our best." And you should not be too arrogant about being a person, and you should consider other people's feelings when you say and do. Everyone should understand why Xiao Xiaolin is so Buddhist.
The sixth person believes that excellent athletes must maintain a strong desire to win. Look at Ma Long and Fan Zhendong, and then look at Japanese Ito Mima and Zhang Ben, nothing can be said. Lin Yunru seems to have no desires, but in fact, what is in his bones may not be soft. I think his playing ball is not ambiguous at all, he is free to attack and defense, and he has murderous aura hidden in his spiritual energy. Otherwise, he would not have defeated so many of our national players.
For professional players, winning or losing is actually very important, and everyone wants to win! Look at Ma Long, even in the team exchange game, once he loses, he will still blame himself so much that he can't eat. Why did he lose? Where did you lose? All these must be read in his mind. Ma Long has a reason for becoming a Grand Slam, and he is worthy of being a role model for learning.
Fourth, the national table tennis team should speed up the training of young players.
As a post-00s player, Lin Yunru has already ranked among the top ten in the world, which has a lot to do with the positioning of the Chinese Taipei team for him. To put it bluntly, we frequently participate in the competition, use competitions instead of training, check for shortcomings and fill in the gaps, and promote their growth (not to encourage growth). In contrast, only Wang Chuqin, a young player born in the 2000s of our Chinese table tennis team, is currently only Wang Chuqin has a clear upward momentum.
In the future, the national table tennis team should allow young players to participate more, and exchange more ideas and exchange with strangers with different styles of playing in the world, and test the training results in the game. The so-called experience is accumulated through games. In fact, our young players have advanced skills, but their experience seems to be insufficient, and this aspect needs to be improved through games.
Fifth, Lin Yunru's football quotient is very high and is a rare representative of playing basketball with his brain.
Table Tennis seems to be a physical exercise that plays from left to left and right. In fact, it is a brain-burning movement of fighting wits and courage, control and counter-control, targeting and counter-targeting, and brain-calculation, and the prediction of the opponent's ball path and reasonable control of the arc. The higher the level, the more we need to count the opponent's fight. Lin Yunru is not old but is a master in this field.
Chinese table tennis players need to learn from others' strengths, such as the rational use of strength. Some young players like to use brute force and pursue victory with strength, but as their level improves, various technical elements should be incorporated, and both wisdom and courage are far better than the courage of an ordinary man.
written at the end
Lin Yunru grew from a rising star in the table tennis world to today's main opponent of the national table tennis team. His football business, talent, hard work and achievements are visible to the naked eye and inspiring. His skills are relatively comprehensive but not lacking in his specialties, his style of play is elegant and agile, and he is a clear stream in the table tennis world.
The future has come, and this rising star in the table tennis world has a bright future. Thanks to the table tennis world for having such an opponent, which has made the Chinese table tennis team full of energy and made fans full of expectations. Come on, the growing powerful player--Xiao Xiaolin!
