The National Tennis Team Championship is currently the largest national adult team tennis event in China with the highest level of players and the largest number of participants, leading the development direction of Chinese tennis. It is worth mentioning that this is the best result achieved by the Guangdong men’s tennis team since it independently formed a team to participate in the national championships, and it is also a tribute to the 65th anniversary of the team’s founding.
Guangdong tennis team coach Li Jianhui said that the Guangdong team has the right time, location and harmony in this competition. The men’s team has created the best results in the history of independent team competition since the establishment of the team.
