Felix Lebrun

Born in Montpellier, Lebrun and his older brother Alexis Lebrun were raised in a family connected to table tennis. Their father, Stéphane, was ranked as high as number seven in France, while their uncle Christophe Legoût represented France at three Olympics. Like his brother, Félix Lebrun began his table tennis career at the age of three. He was inspired by Chen Jian, a penhold player from China who trained in Montpellier and Istres, leading him to adopt a penhold grip at the age of four. The Wall Street Journal compared Lebrun's playing style to that of "an old Chinese man", with American player Lily Zhang describing Lebrun's play as "very refreshing".

In 2023, Lebrun won gold at the European Games by defeating Marcos Freitas in a seven-game final. Three months later, he won WTT Contender series event in Antalya. A series of successes propelled him into the top ten of the ITTF world ranking in October.

Lebrun won his second WTT singles event at the WTT Star Contender Goa in 2024. He continued to help the French men's team advance to the final of the 2024 World Team Championships. This marked the French team's first final appearance at the World Team Championships since 1997.

In March, Félix Lebrun became one the youngest players to reached the top 5 of the WTT rankings.

He won the bronze medal at the men's singles table tennis event of the Olympic Games in Paris in 2024 against Hugo Calderano.

In October 2024, he became the first French player to won a WTT Champions tournament in Montpellier. In November 2024, Félix and his brother Alexis become world number one in doubles after their victory at the WTT Finals in Fukuoka.
