Table tennis was popularized in the United States and Europe in the early twentieth century. At that time the game was band in Russia, because the rulers believed that playing the game had adverse effect on player's eye site. However, the sport continued to grow in other parts of the world, and London hosted the first official world championships in 1927. In the 1970's, table tennis served as a vehicle to help warm relations between China and the United States, when U.S. and Chinese table tennis players met at the 31st World Table Tennis Championship in Japan. In 1988, Table tennis became an official Olympic sport.
