The International Table Tennis Federation released the latest world rankings, although Sun Yingsha lost to Chen Meng at the Olympic Games and Wang Manyu in the World Table Tennis Championships, she still successfully reached the top with her more stable performance, becoming the first post-00 world number one.
Debuting in the world first, how long can Sun Yingsha stay in the world number one position? Who can hit Sun Yingsha? I believe that this is a topic that many Sun Yingsha fans are more concerned about, and we will analyze it in detail from the following three aspects.
First, Sun Yingsha has the lead
The points rule was adjusted, and the original points ratio dropped to 20%, and Sun Yingsha successfully surpassed Chen Meng. Sun Yingsha is currently 405 points ahead of Chen Meng, and about 2500 points ahead of Wang Manyu. After talking about the point gap between the three people, let's talk about the composition of the points of the three people, which is conducive to more clearly explaining sun Yingsha's advantages.
Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha participated in the Olympic Games, Wang Manyu did not participate; in the World Table Tennis Championships, Wang Manyu and Sun Yingsha entered the final, and Chen Meng had no chance; wtt World Cup finals, Sun Yingsha won the women's singles championship, Wang Manyu encountered a round of travel, Chen Meng once again missed the final. Compared with Wang Manyu, Sun Yingsha had an extra Olympic runner-up points of 1400 points, which made it difficult for Wang Manyu, who did not participate, to surpass in the short term. Compared with Chen Meng, Sun Yingsha's advantage lies in her stable results.
Second, Chen Meng and Wang Manyu are Sun Yingsha's biggest competitors, and Chen Meng is the biggest threat
At this stage, the situation in the women's table tennis arena has been very clear, Chen Meng, Sun Yingsha and Wang Manyu should be the top three in the world, and there are wins and losses between the three of them. In terms of technical strength, before the Paris Olympic Games, this situation is basically unlikely to change dramatically, and Chen Meng and Wang Manyu are Sun Yingsha's biggest competitors.
As the three core main forces of national table tennis, the three people have basically equal opportunities to participate. Without participating in the Olympic singles, the WTT World Cup encountered a round of travel, which makes the point gap between Wang Manyu and Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha at this stage relatively large, and it is difficult to pose too much threat to the ranking of the above two in the short term. The player who can really create a threat to Sun Yingsha in the ranking is Still Chen Meng, and the ranking battle between the two will become more and more intense.
Third, in the face of the impact, Sun Yingsha needs to identify the head coach as soon as possible to stabilize her performance
After the National Games, Huang Haicheng guided the departure of the national team, and Sun Yingsha entered a vacuum period without a coach in charge. Although Sun Yingsha is still very stable in her performance, she is still a breath away from the champion in key competitions. Losing to Chen Meng, Wang Manyu, and even Liu Shiwen has something to do with Sun Yingsha's lack of coaching staff.
Losing consecutively to Chen Meng and Wang Manyu, Sun Yingsha urgently needs a victory at this stage to break her psychological bottleneck. If you continue to lose, this can easily affect Sun Yingsha's mentality. Relying on stability, Sun Yingsha topped the world first. In order to maintain the world number one, Sun Yingsha also needs to continue to stabilize her performance.
The Olympic Games, the single World Table Tennis Championships have just been played, and there will be no international competitions in the short term, which is also a good thing for Sun Yingsha. As long as she stabilizes her performance and achievements, she will be able to continue to suppress Chen Meng and Wang Manyu in the points and hold the world number one.
