| Additional information |
China hosted the 43rd World Table Tennis Championships in Tianjin in 1995, the event that saw China sweep all five gold medals — men's and women's singles, men's and women's doubles, and mixed doubles. The clean sweep prompted quiet discussion within the international federation about rule changes designed to curb Chinese dominance, debates that would eventually produce the larger 40mm ball mandate in 2000.
