Feng Tianwei came to Singapore in 2006 and was naturalized in 2008. She won three Olympic medals for Singapore. However, in her tenth year in Singapore, she was ranked sixth in the world but was abandoned by the Singapore national team. The reason for the Singapore Table Tennis Association was to Develop new people. The current state, in her own words, is "teaching herself."
Feng Tianwei admitted that since flying solo, “have encountered a lot of difficulties”. When she was in the national team, all the resources were around her. After she left, she needed to form a training team by herself and hire sparring partners. At present, she can't hire a coach and can only be a coach by herself.
Feng Tianwei is 1.64 meters tall and weighs 58-59 kg. In order to reduce the weight of the injured knee, she is trying to lose weight.
"Facing the future independently, I embarked on a new journey. Finally, I can devote myself to training and competition. I can control myself and enjoy the sport more than before. I will try my best to win on the court, and will not suffer from gains or losses off the court. "
" When you can stand on the podium and accept cheers and congratulations when you are in your best condition, it is only temporary. No one can win forever. Maybe people will forget you soon. In me It seems that the process of struggle is more important than the result. When we pay for our dreams, the journey we have experienced is truly our own. After we have gone, everything will not be repeated. This is truly worth cherishing."
However, the Tokyo Olympics is still Feng Tianwei's biggest goal now. She still needs time to think about how to make a decision after the Olympics.
"Some people think that I am difficult to reach and look unfriendly. Others say that I have a celebrity profile. In fact, I am just the kind of person who doesn't take the initiative to communicate with others. I am relatively passive, so I give people this impression."
"I am a Virgo. I don't like to discuss other people's privacy, nor do I want others to discuss my privacy. My life is very monotonous, and I have never fallen into a gossip or the focus of gossip."
Feng Tianwei has always appeared as a handsome boy. In front of people, she once revealed that the coach would not allow her to talk about her boyfriend. When asked about this topic again, she bluntly told, "I am not single anymore, but I pay great attention to privacy."
Currently, Feng Tianwei lives with her 54-year-old mother and she is very satisfied with her current life. However, she also believes that in order to integrate into Singaporean society, you need to have a good command of English because it is difficult to allocate your energy to language learning to engage in competitive sports. If you no longer play ball in the future, you will definitely learn English well.
