The men's singles of the WTT Macau Championship ended a close-profile match. National table tennis youngster Lin Shidong defeated big brother Zhou Qihao 3:2 to advance to the next round. While congratulating Lin Shidong, he also felt sorry for Zhou Qihao.
Lin Shidong, who dared to start
Lin Shidong and Zhou Qihao dueled, and Zhou Qihao had more advantages from the perspective of hard power. Zhou Qihao is a player with a strong forehand, and if he cannot be effectively suppressed, it is difficult to beat him. Zhou Qihao's achievements in the civil war have also always been better than those in the foreign war. After the game began, Zhou Qihao also played more actively. The first three innings were 2-1 in the lead. The two sides also played fiercely in the fourth set, Lin Shidong was completely released after winning a particularly morale-boosting ball, and won the fourth set 11:8. The total score was tied at 2:2.
The fifth set was a life and death battle, Lin Shidong showed an imposing attack as soon as he came up, leading 5-1 at the beginning, but after exchanging venues, there was a continuous loss of points, and was equalized by Zhou Qihao 9-9. At the critical moment, Lin Shidong used the backhand technique to save the situation, and finally locked in the victory 11-9, and eliminated Zhou Qihao 3-2 to advance.
National table tennis is another Fan Zhendong
Born in 2005, Lin Shidong is only 17 years old and is a very promising young player in the national table tennis men's team. Because Lin Shidong is particularly similar to Fan Zhendong, the new brother of national table tennis, from appearance to appearance and playing style, he is also jokingly called "little fat" by fans.
In an interview with CCTV reporter Li Wujun, he was asked who his national table tennis idol was? Lin Shidong leaked out: Fan Zhendong. Xiao Xiao Fat takes the national table tennis master Xiao Fat as an idol, and is also a good story of the Chinese table tennis team. I hope that Lin Shidong will go to the game step by step, cherish every opportunity to play, strive to improve his technical level, and accumulate more experience in the competition. In the future, he can become the real successor of his idol Fan Zhendong.
This Macau Championship is a very good platform for the little fat Lin Shidong to display. Come on!
