Sun, a three-time Olympic gold medallist who helped China retain the women\u2019s team title at Paris 2024, responded again for China with a commanding performance against Harimoto, winning 11-2, 11-4, 11-6 to force the final into a decisive fifth match.<\/p>\n
That left Wang and Hayata to return to the table, both looking to recover from earlier defeats. Wang controlled the match from the start, winning in straight games to complete China\u2019s comeback and add another chapter to the nation\u2019s extraordinary record in the women\u2019s team event.<\/p>\n

China later completed the team double by defeating Japan 3\u20130 in the men\u2019s final, securing a 12th consecutive ITTF World Team Championships men\u2019s title and lifting the Swaythling Cup for the 24th time overall.<\/p>\n
The victory extended China\u2019s dominance of the men\u2019s team event across both world and Olympic competition. At Paris 2024, China won the Olympic men\u2019s team gold for the fifth consecutive Games, with Wang Chuqin<\/a> part of the title-winning line-up alongside Ma Long<\/a> and Fan Zhendong<\/a>.<\/p>\n
