The ITTF (International Table Tennis Federation) have released a new ‘Rank One leaders since 1997’ list, detailing the total weeks players have spent at the top of their respective Para programs.

The list shows off some incredible para achievements worldwide, but here in Australia, we see some incredible results. Lin Ma sees himself in first place in the Men Class 9 classification, with a total of 484 weeks at World number one, including 196 consecutive weeks.

In the Women Class 9 ranking, Lina Lei is also placed at the pinnacle of the rankings with a total of 510 weeks as world number one, including a remarkable 296 consecutive weeks at the summit.
