German Table Tennis Duo Wins Silver at Paralympics

German table tennis duo Stephanie Grebe and Juliane Wolf, representing Berlin and Eisenhüttenstadt, claimed a silver medal at the Paralympics in Paris after falling short against the Chinese duo of Huang Wenjuan and Jin Yucheng in the final match. Grebe and Wolf, seasoned players at 36 years old, battled valiantly, losing 1-3 to the younger Chinese competitors. This is Wolf’s first Paralympic medal, while Grebe, a bronze medalist in Tokyo, continues her quest for a gold medal. The match was a tight contest, with the Germans finding their rhythm in the second set to win 11-9. However, the Chinese pair ultimately prevailed, winning the next two sets to secure their victory. Earlier in the competition, Grebe and Wolf had staged a remarkable comeback in the semi-finals, overcoming a 1-2 deficit to defeat the top-seeded Norwegian duo.
