On March 6, the World Table Tennis Federation announced that the WTT Singapore Grand Slam had entered the countdown to 1 day, and the national table tennis in Lingshui, Hainan, had also entered the end of the training camp, and a group photo was taken early in the morning. Judging from the on-site Reuters, many of the main players of the national table tennis are still in a very sleepy state, and the expression of confusion is too cute.
From the seat point of view, the three main players of women's table tennis Liu Shiwen, Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng sat together, and sitting next to the 3 golden flowers were coaches Qiu Yike and Xiao Zhan. Sun Yingsha deliberately cut her hair short before going to Singapore, and Chen Meng's hair still looked long.
Liu Shiwen rubbed her eyes in sleepiness, Xiao Zao was already a veteran after all, and the recovery of energy and physical strength was not as fast as that of young people.
People who see the photo may wonder, where is Wang Manyu, who is also the main force of women's table tennis, where is it? It turned out that Wang Manyu did not know what the reason was, and sat down with the main force of the men's team, and she sat next to Ma Long.
Malone had not had time to tidy up his hair early in the morning, it was a little messy, and he also looked sleepy-eyed, looking a little haggard.
Xu Xin sat between Ma Long and Fan Zhendong, and Fan Zhendong was next to his mentor Wang Hao.
A total of 16 national table tennis players participated in the Singapore Grand Slam competition, and the current players staying in Hainan include Ma Long, Fan Zhendong, Xu Xin, Sun Yingsha, Chen Meng, Wang Manyu, Liu Shiwen and Wang Yidi. The other 8 generals, Liang Jingkun, Lin Gaoyuan, Wang Chuqin, Chen Xingtong, He Zhuojia, Lin Shidong, Xiang Peng and Ku Man, have just finished the Muscat Challenge, from where they will travel to Singapore to compete.
In the Muscat Challenge, Liang Jingkun won the men's singles championship, Ku Man won the women's singles + women's doubles championship, Wang Chuqin/Chen Xingtong won the mixed doubles championship, and Xiang Peng/Lin Shidong won the men's doubles championship. As a young player, Xiang Peng, Ku Man and Lin Shidong all performed remarkablely, all of which had champions in hand, and did not live up to the key cultivation of the coaching staff.
Xiang Peng and Ku Mann used their singles qualifying wild cards to participate in Singapore Grand Slam tournaments. Xiang Peng will face Iran's Noshad Alamyan in the first round of qualifying, Kuman will play France's Marie Migott in the first round of qualifying, and Lin Shidong will directly advance to the main tournament. Can these three youngsters continue to stage the youth storm in the grand slam tournament where the masters are gathered?
