Félix Lebrun climbs the rankings. Finalist on Sunday in the Beijing Grand Smash, for his first Grand Slam final, the Frenchman (19 years old) is now fifth in the world, gaining two places compared to the previous ranking. Winner of the tournament against the bronze medalist of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, the Chinese Wang Chuqin remains world number one.
Félix Lebrun returns for the European Team Championships
However, this is not the best ranking of Félix Lebrun, fourth in the world from November 18, 2024 to January 20, 2025. He then slipped to fifth place until the end of February. This time, he overtook the Swede Truls Moregaard and the Chinese Liang Jingkun thanks to the 1,400 points pocketed at the Grand Smash in Beijing.
The Frenchman now has 4,445 points, compared to 6,000 for the Japanese Tomokazu Harimoto, currently fourth. Félix Lebrun will now have to defend his points at the WTT Champions Montpellier, where he won in 2024. Clearly, he will have more to lose than to gain during this deadline, from October 28 to November 2.
Before this tournament in Montpellier, the best in the world will meet from October 20 to 26 for the WTT Star Contender London 2025. For his part, Félix Lebrun will return to competition during the European team championships in Croatia, from October 12 to 19 in Croatia.
