On March 3, 2022, Beijing time, the WTT Regular Challenge Muscat station ended the first day of the main competition, and Wang Chuqin and Liang Jingkun both participated in three games, all of which won. What is more unexpected is that the world champion Liang Jingkun was actually beaten by the opponent 11-1, and then completed the reversal, indicating that Liang Jingkun was slower and hotter. In addition, the top seed of the women's singles, Diaz Adriana, was eliminated in the first round, which is still a significant gap from the national table tennis.
In the first round of the men's singles, Liang Jingkun lost the first set 1-11 as soon as he came up, and then adjusted his state in time, eliminating france's Cassin in three consecutive sets to advance to the round of 16. Wang Chuqin, Zhou Qihao, Zhao Zihao, Xiang Peng, Sun Wen, Liu Dingshuo, zhang Yudong also successfully advanced, Yuan Licen and Xu Yingbin lost in the derby and missed the men's singles round of 16.
Next, Lin Gaoyuan and Lin Shidong played in the men's singles first round, Lin Gaoyuan played against France's Lebison, and Lin Shidong played against Ghanaese Karan. There were also a number of derby matches in the second round of men's singles, including Liang Jingkun against Zhou Qihao, Wang Chuqin against Zhao Zihao, and Sun Wen against Liu Dingshuo.
In the first round of women's singles, Chen Xingtong, Ku Man, Chen Yi and Fan Siqi took the lead in advancing to the round of 16, Liu Weishan lost in the derby, Zhang Rui lost the foreign war, she lost to Szokos 0-3, such a score is indeed somewhat unexpected. Next, He Zhuojia, Shi Xunyao and Qian Tianyi played in the first round of women's singles, and there was also a derby in the second round of women's singles, that is, Ku Man challenged Chen Xingtong.
In addition, the top seed in women's singles, Diaz Adriana, lost 1-3 to Fan Siqi and was eliminated in the first round. Although Diaz Adriana is highly ranked, she has mainly improved her ranking because of the number of competitions, and her personal strength cannot be compared with national table tennis.
In the doubles arena, Wang Chuqin/Liang Jingkun, Lin Shidong/Xiang Peng advanced to the men's doubles quarterfinals, and the two pairs will have a direct dialogue in the quarterfinals. Chen Xingtong/Qian Tianyi, Zhang Rui/Ku Man advanced to the women's doubles quarterfinals, and both pairs are in the second half of the division, and are expected to meet in the semifinals. In the mixed doubles arena, Wang Chuqin/Chen Xingtong, Liang Jingkun/Kuman advanced to the quarterfinals, but the two pairs will also have a direct dialogue in the quarterfinals.
It can also be seen from the matchup that the difficulty of the national table tennis doubles championship is relatively large, Wang Chuqin, Liang Jingkun, Chen Xingtong, and Ku Man are all in three, the pressure is relatively large, I hope they will unload their burdens, strive to play their best level, and strive for more victories!
