The 2021 year of national table tennis is over, but for these busy players, there is not much time left for them to summarize, because the WTT Macau Championship will kick off on January 19. As the opening drama of 2022, the competition of this station also attracted the participation of many good players, and to the surprise of fans, in this game, Ma Long, Xu Xin, Liu Shiwen three veterans will also participate.
For fans, the return of 33-year-old Ma Long and 32-year-old Xu Xin is definitely a good thing, after all, their ball, fans have not yet seen, but for Liu Guoliang, this is a headache.
Why? When he returned from the Tokyo Olympics, Liu Guoliang publicly stated that Ma Long's state should not be retired. Why? Liu Guoliang believes that Ma Long's evergreen has delayed the renewal of national table tennis, so there is also a situation where Malone quit the Houston World Table Tennis Championships to make room for young people, but he and Xu Xin were released for 2 months.
Ma Long, Xu Xin withdrew from the World Table Tennis Championships, which is equivalent to giving Liu Guoliang a chance, if Liu Guoliang's men's team can show enough strength in the World Table Tennis Championships, I believe that Ma Long and Xu Xin will not fall in love, but in this World Table Tennis Championships, Wang Chuqin and Lin Gaoyuan performed well, but Zhou Qihao and Liang Jingkun's performance was unstable, especially in the men's singles, except for Fan Zhendong, the other 4 people look unstable.
In such a situation, Ma Long and Xu Xin this side is also officially stated, just as Ma Long previously said that the original intention does not change, it will always be the year of the fight, yes, this time the emergence of the WTT China Macau Championships, Ma Long and Xu Xin also released their attitude, on the current strength of the national table tennis these little guys, they refuse to give way, although their existence does make these little guys have some obstacles, but to some extent, only such pressure will make these 4 young players more motivated, otherwise the predecessors will give way, There are no pursuers in the back, and they may instead appear to be lax.
Ma Long and Xu Xin's official voice, for the national table tennis is pros or cons, it still needs time to test, but for Liu Guoliang, this is definitely a headache problem, he did not seize the good opportunity given by Ma Long and Xu Xin, in the future, it is really difficult to let these four young players get such an excellent opportunity to upgrade, but perhaps this is also conducive to the growth of national table tennis, after all, there is no player who has grown under pressure or lacks some heat, right? Finally, do you think Malone and Xu Xin should retire to make way for young people? Feel free to leave your opinion in the comments section.
