Hello everyone! Welcome to Bearded Sports! This episode will talk with fans about the WTT World Cup final and talk about Wang Manyu who was out of the first round. We know that after the Tokyo Olympic Games, after Wang Manyu won the two major events of the National Games and the World Table Tennis Championships, the Chinese women's table tennis seems to have gradually entered the era of Wang Manyu. It is undeniable that Wang Manyu's more masculine style of play, the average female athlete is indeed difficult to cope with. Moreover, in the past 6 months, Wang Manyu has won 28 consecutive victories, which is very strong.
But Wanwan did not expect that after moving to the final of the WTT World Cup, Wang Manyu broke out in the first round. A 0:3 defeat to Du Kaixuan of Hong Kong, China, he returned home early without winning a set. Moreover, in these 3 rounds of confrontation, Wang Manyu did not have any confrontation, and the game was a big loss.
And maybe Wang Manyu was eliminated 2:3, we can still accept it. After all, after the Tokyo Olympics, Wang Manyu's training intensity was very large, and it is reported that many nights were added to 11 o'clock. In addition, the National Games, the Table Tennis Super League and the World Table Tennis Championships have won successive championships, which really makes Wang Manyu very tired physically and mentally.
But as the top athlete of today's women's table tennis, when facing first-line players who are not like Chen Meng, Sun Yingsha and Ito Mimachi, they are not victorious in a round, and it is really not physical exhaustion that can explain it. Wang Manyu's unexpected defeat must have had other reasons.
After Wang Manyu's fiasco was out, the fans also blamed the venue. After all, the tables used in this tournament and the table tennis have been branded, and there are indeed differences in the speed of the bounce. In addition, music has been added between each ball, which really affects the attention of the players.
But I think these downsides are mutually reinforcing. Wang Manyu needs to adapt, and du Kaixuan needs the same. And after the game, Wang Manyu also clearly emphasized that objective reasons exist, but the most important thing is subjective reasons.
It is undeniable that after winning the World Table Tennis Championships, all the players are focusing on Wang Manyu. And Wang Manyu, whether it is an advantage or a disadvantage, has now been placed in the spotlight. This time, Du Kaixuan focused on Wang Manyu, and found the right way to deal with Wang Manyu, suppressing Wang Manyu's most advantageous backhand twist.
You know, in the final of the World Table Tennis Championships, Wang Manyu defeated Sun Yingsha with a high-quality backhand Ningla.
In this confrontation, Du Kaixuan made targeted arrangements for Wang Manyu's high-quality backhand. The use of continuous split long bottom balls makes Wang Manyu's high-quality backhand twisting unable to play, and the play is very awkward. In the end, Wang Manyu also completely lost his rhythm, resulting in the failure to adjust in time in the 5-game 3-win system.
It is undeniable that from the defeat of this game, it can also be seen that as a 22-year-old young player, Wang Manyu is indeed still very young. Despite winning the World Table Tennis Championships, he was not experienced enough. In the case of each team focusing on you and focusing on you, Wang Manyu's adaptability is indeed not enough. Therefore, Wang Manyu does have a long way to go, and after becoming famous in one fell swoop, in fact, greater trouble is still to come. And what do fans and friends think about this?
