On January 19, Beijing time, the WTT Macau Championship began the first day of the journey. In the first round of the women's singles is also a quarter-final, the first half of Chen Meng's match against Hong Kong's Du Kaixuan is definitely a focus battle in the first round. Don't look at the big dream is currently ranked first in the world, Du Kaixuan is only ranked twelfth, and there is an insurmountable gap in the strength of the two books. But Du Kaixuan in the previous World Cup finals, the first round of clean sheets is in the limelight, just won the World Table Tennis Championships champion Wang Manyu, made a big news, but there have been dark horse ex-convicts.
This was also confirmed during the race. In the first round, Du Kaixuan will always show a well-prepared and excellent combat effectiveness. As strong as Chen Meng, he also played five sets, and finally eliminated Du Kaixuan with a big score of 3-2, and advanced to the quarterfinals without any danger.
In the 5 sets of matches, except for the decider Chen Meng, who played quite easily and skillfully, and won the small set 11-2 with a single blow, the other 4 sets were quite glued. After Overcoming the problem of slow heat and winning the first set 11-8, Chen Meng made many unforced mistakes in the second set, and the opponent rewrote the score to 1-1.
In the third set, Chen Meng once held 4 innings, but because of the mistake, he gave up the advantage to the opponent to 10 draws, and finally won the set 12-10. The fourth set was like a copy of the third set, except that the roles of Chen Meng and Du Kaixuan were reversed, and Du Kaixuan, who was leading 9-6, was stubbornly equalized by Chen Meng, but she finally won the fourth set 13-11.
Throughout the game, Chen Meng has a clear advantage in the level of technical tactics, especially the pressure of the forehand is particularly sufficient, as long as there is no mistake, he can steadily suppress Du Kaixuan. Maybe it's the first battle of the New Year, or maybe Du Kaixuan's strength is difficult to make Dameng really feel the pressure and become urgent, and Dameng's mistakes are still too many. Although Chen Meng consciously let herself enter the game state as soon as possible, her unforced mistakes still revealed some of her old problems of slow heat. This is something that Big Dream needs to focus on overcoming in the next game.
In the game, Coach Marlene has also been communicating with Big Dream, I believe that through this game, Coach Marlene has also seen some problems, and will give targeted deployment next, with the deepening of the schedule, big Dream's state will only get better and better. The first stop of the new year, I believe that the big dream will not disappoint the fans. As for Du Kaixuan, the first round of elimination is not a lack of strength, it is really bad luck, this lottery, can drag the world's number one women's singles master into the decider, has been considered to have exceeded the task, but also look forward to the Hong Kong star can give us more surprises in 2022.
