On the evening of January 19, Beijing time, the national table tennis Olympic champion Chen Meng officially appeared to participate in the duel of the WTT Macau Tournament, and her opponent was du Kaixuan, a famous player of the Hong Kong team in China, and as a result, Chen Mengjian was upset, and it took 5 rounds of hard work to win 3-2 - interestingly, the off-site guidance of du Kaixuan in this competition was Coach Liu Guodong, Liu Guoliang's brother, and Liu Guoliang himself was also watching the game.
However, today is certainly not a particularly happy day for Liu Guodong, because the Hong Kong team he coached has been completely destroyed in singles and doubles matches, ending all the battles in Macau: at present, the national table tennis has won 5 consecutive foreign battles, which is indeed powerful!
Chen Meng and Du Kaixuan are both first-class athletes in the Chinese table tennis world, the former is currently one of the top two in the women's singles of the national team, winning the gold medal in the Olympic Games and the World Cup, just one step away from the Grand Slam; the latter has been the main force of the Hong Kong team for many years and has also achieved good results in international competitions.
From a technical point of view, Chen Meng is definitely still thicker than Du Kaixuan, but she has always had the problem of slow heat, and there are often cases of sudden drops in the state during the game, if not overcome, it is easy to lose in the best-of-five-game three-game system, so she must preemptively strike and stay calm.
In the first set, Chen Meng played steadily and steadily, and then won the top spot 11-8. In the second set, Du Kaixuan began to gradually increase the quality of the shot, and Chen Meng's mistakes also began to increase, resulting in a 7-11 defeat. In the third set, Du Kaixuan still fought very fiercely and almost achieved a reversal, but Chen Meng still resisted his opponent very steadily, and won 12-10.
After the start of the fourth set, Chen Meng made a lot of mistakes, but she still tied 9-9 after falling behind by 4 points, but unfortunately she lost 11-13 in the end, and the game was dragged into the decider! In the fifth round of the battle, Chen Meng never gave Du Kaixuan any chance, and won easily 11-2, and finally ended the whole game without any danger: it was not easy, congratulations to her!
In general, Chen Meng's technical strength is still thicker than Du Kaixuan's, and the results are much better, but because of this, Du Kaixuan will not have too much ideological baggage in the process of the game, and try her best to fight - she has done a good job, and finally lost is really a gap in level, no way.
Prior to this, Du Kaixuan's mixed doubles had already lost to the national table tennis combination Xiang Peng/Zhang Rui together with Lin Zhaoheng, and Lin Zhaoheng's singles was also eliminated by the national table tennis world champion Lin Gaoyuan, so the Chinese Hong Kong team has ended this Macau tour in advance, and all the "one round tour" on the first day are out: all played a very wonderful round, welcome to challenge the national team next time!
