After Wang Manyu successfully won the women's singles championship of the World Table Tennis Championships, it can be said that her support and recognition among fans have reached an unprecedented height. Coupled with the recent state of Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha, one has declined after winning the Olympic Championship, and the other has exposed some deficiencies in technical thickness, especially the ability to play multi-board stalemate offense. This also directly makes Wang Manyu look very advantageous in the competition within the team. The victory of the World Table Tennis Championships even once made fans think that the era of Wang Manyu had arrived, even if she herself was very low-key, there were still many fans who thought that she would become the most colorful one among the three golden flowers.
However, the victory of the World Table Tennis Championships brought new opportunities and hopes to Wang Manyu, but also made her face new problems. For example, the instant victory made her a little unsure of how to correct her position, and the psychological adjustment was not timely enough, so that she was out of the first round in the WTT World Cup just after the World Table Tennis Championships. As she said in an interview after the game, there are both objective and subjective factors in losing. From the perspective of objective factors, on the one hand, the time between the World Table Tennis Championships and the World Cup is too close, and there is no time difference, resulting in problems in the mobilization of the entire competitive state. On the other hand, the scene often has to mobilize the atmosphere by playing music between the points, but Wang Manyu is obviously not adapted to this way. There is no head-to-head confrontation between her and Du Kaixuan for a long time, the preparation for the opponent is obviously insufficient, the opponent's ball path she is not familiar with, but the other party's understanding and preparation for her is very sufficient, it can be said that there is a target, plus Wang Manyu became the champion of the Xinke World Table Tennis Championships, Du Kaixuan just wants to win this championship, so Du Kaixuan completely released himself, super level play, hit Wang Manyu a surprise. But all this is only an objective factor, subjectively speaking, or Wang Manyu herself has just stood on the highest podium of the World Table Tennis Championships, and excessive excitement makes it difficult for her to adapt to the WTT World Cup for the first round of the player's need to go all out and show the best state.
Even if Wang Manyu did not produce pride and complacency, there was still relaxation and excitement in a short period of time. This relaxation and excitement is reflected in the competitive state, that is, the whole person enters the state too slowly, and the technical ability to mobilize oneself is also biased. The opponent will want to attack her when he sees her, anyway, it doesn't matter if he loses, if he wins, he will be upset. This also directly leads to new differences in the mentality and technical state between Wang Manyu and his opponents when they fight. This failure seems to be a bad thing, in fact, from the perspective of Wang Manyu's long-term development, it is also a good thing, which can allow her to put herself in a lower position in the future competition. For example, at least she will feel that between her and Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng, everyone has won the world's top competition, and everyone is still far from the Grand Slam, under such a premise, her technical strength will inevitably have new growth.
For the national table tennis team, the former Wang Liqin, Ma Lin, and Wang Hao are very good, they appeared in the same period, and there were flash moments on the field, but they could not achieve grand slams. Now this situation has happened to the women's team again, Chen Meng, Wang Manyu and Sun Yingsha are also their own flashes, and each has its own shortcomings, this deficiency, in fact, in turn, can make them continue to find their own problems, and there are benchmarking roles around them to help them grow, can not have the slightest relaxation. And in the recent matches, they are all players in the foreign association, especially in front of the main opponents such as Ito Mimachi, who have maintained a record of total victory, and the previous defeats have gradually faded away, and now they are getting more and more relaxed when they play against Ito Mimachi, and even Wang Yidi can always defeat Ito Mimachi. So the competition between these players has become easier and easier, because they don't have to compare with the main out-of-league players, but with their teammates. To see who is stronger, this confrontation itself is easy for everyone's mentality to be more relaxed.
No matter who wins in the internal competition of the national table tennis women's team in the future, at least it is the success of the national table tennis team. The players' state of learning from each other and competing with each other will also be more beneficial to the growth of the entire team of national table tennis, and will invisibly promote the growth of more young players. We believe that the future of the national table tennis women's team will not feel that there is any dissatisfaction because everyone cannot get the Grand Slam results for the time being, and I believe that they will become more and more excellent. Wang Manyu, Sun Yingsha, Chen Meng, are just a new beginning for a national table tennis women's team. Perhaps a stronger national table tennis team is still to come.
