Ma Long must be very happy with the doubles gold.... something he always wanted...

Fan and ML and continually shown in their matches that their level built for the Olympics was just not something of this world... makes me give extra credit to Dima and Lin for pushing them so hard...

Most definitly.
I think in this tournament both showed perfectly that they are playing on a different level than the rest, especially against the Top 10 (or 11 including Wang Cuqin). Incredible performance and FZD definitly deserved his titel here.

  而对于崭新奥运周期,“国乒领军人”的说法,樊振东的回答依旧谦虚内敛。

  “身份的转变不是以个人意志为转移的。现在年轻队员成长很快,打法非常先进。我自己成绩也没说有多好,下一个周期我还是一个去拼、冲击的角色。”
As for the notion of "CNT's leader" in the new Olympic cycle, Fan Zhendong's answer is still modest and restrained.

"The change of role is not based on personal will. Now the young players are growing very fast and their styles of play are very advanced. My own results are not that great, either. My role in the next cycle will still be one of contending and clashing."

CM: 😭
CM: My era has come. 🤩
LSW: Didn't play me x 1. 😑
WMY: Didn't play me x 2. 😑

I like Zhendongs humble attitude. This is something I see a lot in Chinese culture. On the other hand he is absolutely right, the young players train a lot and are at a very high level where the older players hardly have any advantages. I bet we'll see a change at the top soon.
