The racket used by Fan Zhendong's opponent Moregade in the final increased the hitting area and sweet zone, changing the concept of racket usage. This means that players are more likely to hit the optimal area when hitting the ball, thereby improving the accuracy and effectiveness of the shot.

The table tennis rules formulated by the International Table Tennis Federation clearly state that "there are no restrictions on the size, shape, and weight of the racket, but the bottom plate should be flat and hard", but there are limitations on the thickness of the racket, so irregular rackets are allowed to be used.

In addition to the heptagonal racket that made its debut this time, many players have also used oddly shaped rackets in international competitions. For example, table tennis player "Old Wa" Waldner, also from Sweden, uses a droplet shaped racket; French player Elova also used violin shaped rackets, adding a touch of artistic flair.
