Table Tennis Olympian - Feng Tianwei
 原籍中国黑龙江的冯天薇今年3月正式加入新加坡乒总，至今已代表我国参加了国际乒总职业巡回赛五站赛事。 刚度过21岁生日的冯天薇，在上个月下旬的台湾公开赛上，不仅拿下21岁女单冠军，还勇夺公开组女单亚军，一鸣惊人。 冯天薇在国际赛中抢眼的表现，立即引起许多人的讨论，甚至有中国网站认为她的实力已超越新加坡二三号女将王越古和孙蓓蓓，直逼首号女将李佳薇，“有望速成一姐”。 尽管最后败给了李佳薇，但冯天薇在杀入台湾公开赛决赛途中，先后把三位世界名将王越古、奥地利的刘佳和日本的福冈春菜拉下马，实力可见一斑。 冯天薇昨天受访时说：“参加了五站比赛，台湾站成绩最好。不过，由于太久没有参加国际赛，一时适应不过来，因此前三站（韩国、日本、中国南京）的表现不是很好。” 她在上个周末的中国深圳公开赛上，杀入女单复赛八强，最后栽在世界冠军中国好手郭跃的拍下。 然而，冯天薇的实力受到肯定，不只是因为她在职业巡回赛中的战绩，而是熟悉她背景的乒乓球爱好者都知道，她虽然自小就展露出不错的潜力，却一直到今天才在国际赛上取得佳绩。 她曾在2002年勇夺中国全国青少年锦标赛女单冠军，并在同一年入选中国国家青年队。 不过，由于一直未取得预期中的理想成绩，冯天薇毅然在两年前远走他乡，到日本参加俱乐部甲级联赛，而且由始至终都不曾放弃夺取奥运奖牌的梦想。 她说：“我到日本打了两年的甲级联赛，之后经过一些人的推荐和拉线，新加坡乒总和我联络，而我当时也很想到新加坡继续发展事业，所以就来了，希望有机会代表新加坡，实现夺得奥运奖牌的梦。” 乒总高水平主管李斌汉说：“冯天薇很听话，而且在训练中的态度非常积极。国家女队教练刘国栋也认为，她是很乖的球员，自我约束力很强。” 短短一个月，冯天薇的世界排名已从第73名窜升至第40名，只要再经过多几项大赛的磨炼，必定能与李佳薇、王越古和孙蓓蓓等国家女队队员，一同为新加坡争取更高的荣誉。

Table Tennis Olympian - Feng Tianwei
原籍中国黑龙江的冯天薇今年3月正式加入新加坡乒总，至今已代表我国参加了国际乒总职业巡回赛五站赛事。 刚度过21岁生日的冯天薇，在上个月下旬的台湾公开赛上，不仅拿下21岁女单冠军，还勇夺公开组女单亚军，一鸣惊人。 冯天薇在国际赛中抢眼的表现，立即引起许多人的讨论，甚至有中国网站认为她的实力已超越新加坡二三号女将王越古和孙蓓蓓，直逼首号女将李佳薇，“有望速成一姐”。 尽管最后败给了李佳薇，但冯天薇在杀入台湾公开赛决赛途中，先后把三位世界名将王越古、奥地利的刘佳和日本的福冈春菜拉下马，实力可见一斑。 冯天薇昨天受访时说：“参加了五站比赛，台湾站成绩最好。不过，由于太久没有参加国际赛，一时适应不过来，因此前三站（韩国、日本、中国南京）的表现不是很好。” 她在上个周末的中国深圳公开赛上，杀入女单复赛八强，最后栽在世界冠军中国好手郭跃的拍下。 然而，冯天薇的实力受到肯定，不只是因为她在职业巡回赛中的战绩，而是熟悉她背景的乒乓球爱好者都知道，她虽然自小就展露出不错的潜力，却一直到今天才在国际赛上取得佳绩。 她曾在2002年勇夺中国全国青少年锦标赛女单冠军，并在同一年入选中国国家青年队。 不过，由于一直未取得预期中的理想成绩，冯天薇毅然在两年前远走他乡，到日本参加俱乐部甲级联赛，而且由始至终都不曾放弃夺取奥运奖牌的梦想。 她说：“我到日本打了两年的甲级联赛，之后经过一些人的推荐和拉线，新加坡乒总和我联络，而我当时也很想到新加坡继续发展事业，所以就来了，希望有机会代表新加坡，实现夺得奥运奖牌的梦。” 乒总高水平主管李斌汉说：“冯天薇很听话，而且在训练中的态度非常积极。国家女队教练刘国栋也认为，她是很乖的球员，自我约束力很强。” 短短一个月，冯天薇的世界排名已从第73名窜升至第40名，只要再经过多几项大赛的磨炼，必定能与李佳薇、王越古和孙蓓蓓等国家女队队员，一同为新加坡争取更高的荣誉。
