Japanese table tennis star Miu Hirano insisted on adjusting to be the king, and she "is going to play table tennis in a new mood..."

Miu Hirano, who won a silver medal in the women's team event at last year's Paris Olympics, helped the Japanese women's team defeat China in the team event of the Asian Table Tennis Championships in October of the same year, contributing to the gold medal. During this period, there was basically no rest, and the mind and body were close to the limit. In the recently concluded 2025 World Table Tennis Championships in Doha, Miu Hirano collapsed due to excessive breathing after losing in the second round of singles, and although she was not taken to the hospital, she was examined in an ambulance. When returning home on the 26th, Miu Hirano confessed her painful feelings, "Although I think I can do it, I feel that I am reluctant."

Miu Hirano, who plays table tennis wholeheartedly

Although she has been working on table tennis since she was 3 years old, Miu Hirano confided, "Until now, I had a lot of emotions about 'aiming for the next Olympic Games' and 'I wanted to leave a good result at this tournament', but I wanted to reduce it a little bit and dedicate myself to table tennis with a different new mood." It is said that she will reduce the number of matches she plays in the future and increase her studies outside of table tennis.

Many people involved agreed with this decision. A Japanese table tennis insider pointed out: "Miu Hirano also had a hard time resting after the Paris Olympics. It's still hard to fight without rest, and even the top fighters can rest for 1 month, so it's good to do it slowly. ”

Miu Hirano, who has also shown interest in other competitions and travel, said with a smile, "If you say something like this, you will be told 'what are you talking about', but many people will say, 'It's good to rest until you're satisfied.'" Miu Hirano finally said that she will first adjust her mental skills by changing her mood.
