It already lost it. Not only to China, but also to the European Union. Both now equal or surpass the US in terms of PPP per capita.

Perhaps you don't realize that an ~8% yearly economic growth means China's GDP/PPP per capita is DOUBLING(!) every 9 years. And it has been doubling every ~9 years for the last... 35 years.
