In the wake of all medals in women single had gone to China, Ma Long beat a Swedish player last evening and won his third men single title of World Championship in a row. That is the first player has ever acquired this remarkable accomplishment in 54 years. (The last one is that legendary Zhuang Zedong during 1961-1965.) Congratulations, China Long! (As almost alaways, China players enveloped all titles of all five items.)
What interests me more is there were so many Ma fans came to root for him at some stadium in Budapest, Hungary. This is a positive phenomenon that signifies Chinese people have had more money and leisure than before to chase stars, including sports stars.
