The Chinese table tennis team is conducting closed training in Lingshui, Hainan, and the national table tennis team will send players to participate in the WTT regular season challenge oman from February 27 to March 5 and the first WTT Grand Slam in Singapore from March 7 to 20. Oman Challenge national table tennis sent not many players, the first WTT Grand Slam event national table tennis is the main force to play, who will become the women's singles world number one Sun Yingsha's head coach is worth paying attention to.
The Grand Slam is a new WTT event, four races a year, the first tournament is held in Singapore, the national table tennis full main force, Fan Zhendong, Ma Long, Xu Xin, Sun Yingsha, Chen Meng, Wang Manyu, Liu Shiwen and other people will play. According to the registration list, Sun Yingsha, the world number one in women's singles, will play three, in addition to the women's singles, women's doubles partner Wang Manyu and mixed doubles partner Wang Chuqin will play, which is exactly the same as the Houston World Table Tennis Championships held in November last year. In last year's Houston World Table Tennis Championships, Sun Yingsha reached the final in all three, and finally won the mixed doubles and women's doubles championships, and the women's singles defeated Wang Manyu to get the runner-up, it is reported that Sun Yingsha is the only player on the women's team of the WTT Grand Slam tournament who is able to do three.
Sun Yingsha surpassed Chen Meng in the last world ranking before the Spring Festival to become the world number one in the new women's singles, but who will become her new head coach attracts attention from the outside world. After the Tokyo Olympic Games last year, Sun Yingsha's head coach Huang Haicheng took the initiative to resign for personal reasons, and then Sun Yingsha has not been in charge of coaching, in the closed training before the World Table Tennis Championships, the national table tennis invited its provincial team mentor Yang Guangdi to the team to help Sun Yingsha train. In the subsequent World Table Tennis Championships and WTT World Cup finals, the national table tennis arranged for the men's team coach Chen Xuan to serve as Sun Yingsha's temporary head coach, practice with her before the game, and give her guidance on the field, and many fans called for Chen Xuan to become Sun Yingsha's official head coach.
During the closed training in Lingshui, Hainan, Sun Yingsha was still accompanied by yang Guangdi, the coach of her provincial team, and the two of them went to training together, but Yang Guangdi had said that he could not teach Sun Yingsha anything in techniques and tactics, and more was to take care of her in life. Chen Xuan, who originally served as the coach of the men's team, took the initiative to resign for personal reasons, left the national table tennis team, and returned to the Jiangsu team as the coach of the men's team, so who will become the head coach of Sun Yingsha has once again aroused heated discussion. Perhaps in the first WTT Grand Slam tournament, in addition to head coach Li Falcon, new coaching Sun Yingsha can be seen.
