On 20 January, the Macau Championship ushered in the second day of competition. Liu Shiwen won both fronts. Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha also successfully advanced. The two post-00s rising stars of the Macau Championships Men's Table Tennis, Lin Shidong and Xiang Peng, both advanced in the singles competition. In terms of women's table tennis, the first beauty queen Tian Yi failed to break through the first round in the mixed doubles competition.
Liu Shiwen did not participate in the World Table Tennis Championships and World Cup Championships some time ago. On this return, Liu Shiwen performed very strongly, defeating the powerful Wang Yidi 3-1 in the first round.
The first set was won 11-6, the second set was lost 10-12, the third set was narrowly won 13-11 and the fourth set was narrowly won 14-12. After the game, Liu Shiwen said: "I haven't fought wang Yidi for a long time, and today I came with the mentality of fighting, and I played very freely." ”
Liu Shiwen also said that she will gradually transform in the future, but table tennis is her passion for the cause, and she hopes to promote table tennis and let more people love table tennis.
Liu Shiwen also cooperated with Xu Xin and defeated Xu Yingbin/Liu Weishan 3-1 in the mixed doubles match, winning 11-4 in the first set, losing 9-11 in the second set, winning 11-9 in the third set and winning 11-8 in the fourth set.
Liu Shiwen's two-front combat has shown excellent form. Liu Shiwen has a high appearance, but after Wang Tianyi entered the national team, the latter became a team flower.
Wang Tianyi only participated in the mixed doubles competition, she and Lin Shidong cooperated, facing Chen Meng and Liang Jingkun, fighting for 5 sets, and finally lost 2-3. Olympic champion Chen Meng narrowly defeated her opponents in both the women's singles and mixed doubles competitions.
On January 20, xiang Peng, an 18-year-old national table tennis player, defeated the national player Sun Wen 3-1 to enter the next round, which was another upset. The first set was won 11-8, the second set was won 11-6, the third set was lost 7-11 and the fourth set was won 11-7.
Xiang Peng and Lin Shidong became the hope for the future among the male members of the national table tennis team. The national table tennis men's team needs post-00 players too much to impact the mesozoic players. Lin Gaoyuan, Zhou Qihao, Zhao Zihao, Liang Jingkun and others have not been able to transform into a beam, and perhaps more opportunities should be given to post-00 players in the future.
