HCM CITY — Mai Hoàng Mỹ Trang triumphed in the 38th National Table Tennis Championships which concluded in HCM City over the weekend.

It is the 12th time Trang has taken the women’s singles title of the national tournament.

Playing a key role in the success of the women's team, the women's doubles and the mixed doubles of the hosts of HCM City, Trang showed some signs of tiredness when entering the women's singles final with Nguyễn Thị Nga of Hà Nội.

However, Trang came from behind to beat Nga 4-3 to take the title.

On the men’s side, Nguyễn Đức Tuân of VICEM Hoàng Thạch Hải Dương beat Nguyễn Anh Tú of Hà Nội 4-3  to get the crown.

The organising board also gave gold medals to Lê Đình Đức and Đinh Anh Hoàng of T&T 1 team who won the men’s team category, while Lê Đình Huy and Trang won mixed doubles.

The best eight male and female tennis players of the event will be summoned to the national team to prepare for the SEA Games 31 to be held in Việt Nam next year. — VNS
