On March 9, Beijing time, the draw for the WTT Singapore Grand Slam tournament was officially released, and the match between all the participating players in the national table tennis first team was officially determined.
Among them, the women's single side, the national table tennis internal melee, Sun Yingsha, Liu Shiwen and Wang Manyu were divided in a half district, forming a death group. Especially Sun Yingsha and Liu Shiwen, if the first two rounds of the game these two people can win smoothly, then Sun Yingsha will meet Liu Shiwen in the round of 16, which will be a big battle. Liu Shiwen, as a veteran, has been in a very good state recently, and Sun Yingsha, as a junior young player, needs to pay 100% concentration to have the opportunity to win this game.
On the other hand, Chen Meng, the Olympic women's singles champion of Xinke, is drawn to the upper draw, located in the lower half of the zone, and Japan's first golfer Ito Mimachi in a half zone, the other two strong players of the national table tennis women's team Chen Xingtong and Wang Yidi are also in this half zone, but in the first round of 64, Wang Yidi and Chen Xingtong will stage a duel, that is to say, Chen Meng's opponents in this half of the district are relatively weak, the difficulty of promotion is relatively small, and they get the luckiest one.
Since the Tokyo Olympic Games, Chen Meng has not won the women's singles championship in many consecutive competitions, including the women's singles of the National Games, the women's singles of the World Table Tennis Championships, and the women's singles of the World Cup Finals, and he has not been able to win the first place in many consecutive competitions, and even the final has not reached the final. This is enough to reflect Chen Meng's depression in the past period of time, this draw a good signing, look forward to Chen Meng can take this opportunity to win the Singapore Grand Slam women's singles champion, according to the regulations, to win the singles championship of this competition, you can directly lock in an Asian Games big list place, Chen Mengmeng will go all out.
On the men's singles side, fan Zhendong entered the death half, Xiao Fat and Xu Xin were divided in a half zone, as well as Japan's Zhang Benzhihe and Germany's Bohr, these are world-class players, Fan Zhendong wants to reach the final, need to go through many hard battles.
In the other half of the district, it is Ma Long and Wang Chuqin who play, but Ma Long and Wang Chuqin will meet in the round of 16 if there is no accident, and the two signs are very close. Previously, on the stage of the Macau Race, Wang Chuqin defeated Ma Long at that time, and finally reached the final all the way to win the men's singles championship, achieving a beautiful story, in this era, every player who can beat Ma Long, I believe will be praised.
And this Singapore race, Ma Long ushered in the opportunity of "revenge", as the first person in the history of national table tennis, I believe that Ma Long will not lose to the same opponent twice in a row, Wang Chuqin needs to be prepared for all difficulties. At the same time, this will be An opportunity for Wang Chuqin to prove himself once again, as the strongest post-00 player in national table tennis, Wang Chuqin also needs more wins to enhance the coach's trust in himself.
