A month before the Houston World Table Tennis Championships, the national table tennis participation list that everyone has called for has finally come out, but at a glance, it is dumbfounding, the three veterans Ma Long, Xu Xin, Liu Shiwen collective truce, led by Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng to go to Houston, such a lineup caused a lot of controversy among netizens.
After all, Ma Long, Liu Shiwen, Xu Xin is the men's singles, women's singles, mixed doubles champion of the last World Table Tennis Championships, and the collective withdrawal of the three World Table Tennis Champions has made netizens talk about it, liu Shiwen quit the team competition due to injury at the Tokyo Olympic Games, so everyone's more focus is still on the Dragon Team.
After all, since the wrist and knee surgery in 19 years, the comeback of Malone has experienced a long period of decline, but from the end of 2020, the Dragons have gradually regained their state, and this year they have won the Olympic men's singles championship, and after the National Games and the Table Tennis Super League, the Dragons have also performed well, and they have maintained an undefeated record in the Table Tennis Super League. And this year's performance of the Dragon team so well did not participate in the World Table Tennis Championships, can not help but let everyone regret and regret. But whether the Dragons did not participate in the World Table Tennis Championships for physical reasons as he said, or whether they let the youngsters have more exercise opportunities for the sake of the Paris Olympics, as everyone speculated, the Dragons must have made this decision after careful consideration.
In the notice issued by the national table tennis, the entries are as follows:
Men's Singles: Fan Zhendong, Liang Jingkun, Wang Chuqin, Lin Gaoyuan, Zhou Qihao; Men's Doubles: Fan Zhendong/ Wang Chuqin, Lin Gaoyuan / Liang Jingkun;
Women's Singles: Chen Meng, Sun Yingsha, Wang Manyu, Chen Xingtong, Wang Yidi; Women's Doubles: Sun Yingsha/ Wang Manyu, Chen Meng/Qian Tianyi;
Mixed doubles: Wang Chuqin/Sun Yingsha, Lin Gaoyuan/Wang Manyu.
The women's team's entry list, in addition to regretting Liu Shiwen's withdrawal, everyone is still more recognized, after all, Chen Meng is the Olympic women's singles champion, Wang Manyu is the women's singles champion of the National Games, and Sun Yingsha is the MVP of the Table Tennis Super League, they are all tickets to the World Table Tennis Championships with their own strength. Chen Xingtong and Wang Yidi both performed well in both the National Games and the Table Tennis Super League, and they were also recognized by their own strength. And Qian Tianyi, as a left-handed athlete, national table tennis must also attach great importance to her doubles ability.
The men's team's entry list, Xiao Fat is the men's singles champion of the National Games, and Big Fat is the MVP of the Table Tennis Super League, and both of them have won the Tickets for the World Table Tennis Championships by virtue of their own strength. And Datou, Lin Gaoyuan, Zhou Qihao, can not say that their strength is not strong, that is, the ups and downs are a little big, I hope that the World Table Tennis Championships they can all stand up and play wonderful. And Liu Dingshuo passed five levels at the National Games and slashed six generals, won the men's singles runner-up, but did not qualify for the World Table Tennis Championships, which made people feel sorry for him.
As can be seen from the list, Wang Chuqin, Lin Gaoyuan, Sun Yingsha and Wang Manyu are all three, which can be described as a great consideration for physical strength and endurance.
Wang Chuqin/Sun Yingsha's Shatou combination has reappeared in the jianghu again, which is expected, after all, they also had a good performance when they were together before, the two won the Mixed Doubles Championship of the Asian Youth Championships in 17 years, the mixed doubles champion of the Asian Games in Jakarta in 18 years, and in this year's direct WTT Grand Slam, they defeated Xu Xin / Liu Shiwen 4-3 to win the championship. Lin Gaoyuan / Wang Manyu is a mixed doubles champion who won the 19-year national championship, and we look forward to the surprise of the two-pair mixed doubles combination.
No matter how controversial it is on the Internet, the list of participants in the Houston World Table Tennis Championships has been determined, and I hope that this youthful team can play a style!
