On January 19, 2022, the WTT Macau Championship will kick off at the Ta shek Stadium, and due to the small number of applicants, the men's singles, women's singles and mixed doubles events have basically become the team competition of national table tennis. A total of 14 male players and 13 female players were sent to participate in the national table tennis team, gathering all the first-team members of the national team, the singles champion will not fall by the wayside, and all the main layers will participate in the mixed doubles competition intended to select the best combination for the Paris Olympic Games. The only opponent in this competition is a sister from Hong Kong, China, Du Kaixuan, who helped the Hong Kong women's team win the bronze medal at the Tokyo Olympic Games and defeated Wang Manyu in the World Cup finals.
The 14 men's singles players of the national table tennis were Ma Long, Xu Xin, Fan Zhendong, Lin Gaoyuan, Liang Jingkun, Wang Chuqin, Zhou Qihao, Yuan Licen, Zhao Zihao, Sun Wen, Xue Fei, Xiang Peng, Lin Shidong and Xu Yingbin. In addition to the national table tennis, there are two other people participating in the men's singles competition, namely Lin Zhaoheng (Hong Kong, China) and Zhang Zicheng (Macau, China)
Lin Zhaoheng ranked third in the main singles team in Hong Kong, China, and after the straight board stars Huang Zhenting and He Junjie, he was also the future successor of the Hong Kong men's team, and Zhang Zicheng was the player who followed the national table tennis team in macau winter training last year, plus he was the host, and he got a chance to participate, and the threat of the two to the national table tennis was almost non-existent. The national table tennis men's team has three points to watch in this competition: first, to see whether the two veterans, Ma Long and Xu Xin, who have been fighting for a long time, can still have the strength to impact the Paris Olympic Games; second, to see whether the players who played in the year of Fan Zhendong, Wang Chuqin, Lin Gaoyuan, and Liang Jingkun maintained their bravery during the World Table Tennis Championships and the World Cup Finals; third, we must see whether young players such as Yuan Licen, Xiang Peng, and Lin Shidong had an impact on the main force, forming a competitive situation in which you catch up with me.

In addition to national table tennis, there are Also Du Kaixuan (Hong Kong, China) Li Jie (Netherlands) Li Qian (Poland)
The opponent of this women's team is Du Kaixuan, who is second only to Ito Mimachi, who threatens the national table tennis team in 2021. Du Kaixuan helped the Hong Kong women's team win the medal for the first time at the Tokyo Olympic Games, and the women's singles quarterfinals were inseparable from the final champion Chen Meng, and defeated Wang Manyu 4-0 in the first round of the women's singles finals at the end of 2021, making this championship the biggest rival. Li Jie and Li Qian, two Chinese chippers, although they have achieved great results in Europe, it is difficult to win in front of national table tennis. The women's singles champion will basically lock on the three main players wang Manyu, Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha.

Mixed doubles is the only champion lost by the national table tennis at the Tokyo Olympic Games, in order to win the gold medal at the Paris Olympic Games, the mixed doubles of the national table tennis sent out all the combinations, including Liu Shiwen / Xu Xin and Sun Yingsha / Wang Chuqin, the winners of the last two World Table Tennis Championships, the biggest attraction is also the contest between these two pairs of new and old champion combinations, according to the Houston World Table Tennis Championships Wang Chuqin / Sun Yingsha won the state of the championship, or have the upper hand. Lin Gaoyuan / Wang Manyu is also a world champion combination, there is also the possibility of rushing to the championship, the new combination of Ma Long / Qian Tianyi, Ku Man / Fan Zhendong, Wang Yidi / Yuan Licen, Chen Xingtong / Yu Ziyang, He Zhuojia / Zhou Qihao is more looking forward to their play, hoping that dark horses will emerge.
