WTT Oman will be officially launched on the 27th of this month, in order not to delay the game time, the national table tennis team today from Guangdong Baiyun Airport, officially out of oman. According to the official announcement of the International Table Tennis Federation, oman starts on February 27 and ends on March 5, divided into two stages: qualifying and main competition, with a total prize money of up to $75,000. Although it is only a general WTT series event, the national table tennis team has sent nearly 30 players to participate.
The men's singles event is mainly led by Liang Jingkun, Lin Gaoyuan and Wang Chuqin, and the women's singles event is only attended by Chen Xing. Although Oman is not an important event, considering that the WTT Singapore Grand Slam event will be held in March, some of the main players have regained their form in advance through Oman and are working hard to compete for the singles championship of the first Grand Slam tournament. And Oman is a little noteworthy, Wang Chuqin's mixed doubles partner was replaced by Chen Xingtong, it seems that Wang Chuqin is basically determined to participate in the mixed doubles competition of the Paris Olympic Games.
Judging from the photos sent back from the airport, the national table tennis team members took a selfie as a souvenir. Chen Xingtong and Zhou Qihao are more special, and the two have been wearing duck-tongue hats. Zhou Qihao participated in the Houston World Table Tennis Championships last year and had the opportunity to be promoted to the main team. Unfortunately, the results of foreign competitions are not good, and there is no chance to participate in Grand Slam events, which means that it is getting farther and farther away from the main position. Chen Xingtong is different, although he can't beat his main teammates, his performance is still stable, and he can participate in Grand Slam events and stabilize his own position.
Liang Jingkun looked a little stunned, the whole photo is a personal face, it seems to be more well prepared. Judging from the entire selfie collection, the national table tennis players did not have a smiley face, which was more serious, and Lin Shidong and Zhao Zihao were also serious. It may be that the time of this overseas expedition is relatively long, which is a test for the energy of athletes. By the end of oman, it will be necessary to participate in Singapore Grand Slam tournaments, as well as Doha tournaments, and it is already April when the national table tennis returns home.
The main players of the national table tennis all sent selfies, but they did not see Wang Chuqin's selfie photos. Judging from the list of participants alone, Wang Chuqin is indeed tired of doing three things, but he has the opportunity to achieve the eye-catching record of the triple crown. Her best friend, Sun Yingsha, has found a head coach, and the two of them are fighting for the mixed doubles title in the Singapore competition to stabilize their position. The national table tennis team has missed the mixed doubles gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics, and the Paris Olympics cannot make any more mistakes.
Traveling to Oman to compete is a long flight, and the team members also need to adjust their physical condition in time. After all, the tournament will start in two days, although many team members do not have to participate in the qualification round, but there are not a few team members in the first round of the main game, and they need to be vigilant about participating.
