On February 24, the national table tennis came to the important news, the Olympic champion Sun Yingsha's head coach was finally officially announced. After many investigations, it was finally determined that Qiu Yi, the coach of the women's team, could serve as the head coach of Sun Yingsha. In the Paris Olympic cycle, Qiu Yi can take Sun Yingsha to the Grand Slam.
As we all know, Sun Yingsha's former head coach Huang Haicheng chose to resign after the Tokyo Olympics for family reasons and went home to take care of her two daughters. The coach of the men's team, Chen Xuan, became the interim head coach of Sun Yingsha and took Sun Yingsha to the Houston World Table Tennis Championships and the WTT World Cup Finals. When the two people gradually entered a better situation, there was news that Chen Xuan resigned from the national team and returned to the provincial team.
In the national table tennis training camp in Lingshui, Hainan, Yang Guangdi, the coach of the Hebei Provincial Team, appeared again, and he once again came to support his beloved disciple Sun Yingsha. For the appearance of Yang Guangdi, the fans are very touched, but still very worried. After all, Yang Guangdi himself said that technically unable to help Sun Yingsha improve, Sun Yingsha needs a strong national team coach.
Looking around the women's table tennis coaching staff, Ma Lin took the two main forces Chen Meng and Liu Shiwen, and Xiao Zhan took the main force Wang Manyu, and they were difficult to distract from taking Sun Yingsha again. The coach who can take Sun Yingsha must be sun Yingsha as the number one main force in the group, at this time, Qiu Yike has become the best candidate. In the player era, Qiu Yike was the world champion. After becoming a coach, Qiu Yike led the team to win the 2017 National Games Women's Team Championship in Sichuan, and also supervised Zhu Yuling during the national team.
Zhu Yuling has faded out of the arena because of illness, Qiu Yike has no main disciples under him, and now he has taken over the whip to coach Sun Yingsha, which is just in line with the needs of both sides. If Qiu Yike can lead Sun Yingsha further, it will be the best embodiment of her coaching ability; and Sun Yingsha has a coach who can help her wholeheartedly, and can also constantly break the bottleneck and improve herself in the fierce competition.
In this regard, women's table tennis coach Li Falcon also explained the reason for choosing Qiu Yike to coach Sun Yingsha: "Choosing him as Sun Yingsha's head coach, on the one hand, I like his aggressive and creative coaching style, on the other hand, young coaches and young players are also relatively smooth in communication. ”
Sun Yingsha actively welcomed the arrival of the new head coach: "Qiu Coach was a very good athlete and a talented player when he played, and now that he is my head coach, I believe it will also bring me something new." I look forward to working with him in the Paris Olympic cycle." With the head coach Qiu Yike around to carefully guide, Sun Yingsha also smiled and blossomed.
In terms of doubles, Sun Yingsha has already won the World Championship women's doubles and mixed doubles championships, completely proving herself. But in terms of singles, Chen Meng holds the Olympic singles champion, Wang Manyu has the World Championship singles champion, and Sun Yingsha's WTT World Cup singles champion is still worse than the two sisters, so it needs to work harder.
The WTT Singapore Grand Slam to be held in March will be the first important test of the Paris Olympic cycle, let's see what kind of answers qiu Yike + Sun Yingsha can deliver. Finally, congratulations to Sun Yingsha for finally having a strong helper, and hopes that the master and apprentice will walk the flower road together!
