On 12 March 2022, the WTT Singapore Grand Slam event entered the second matchday of the main tournament. The Chinese table tennis team will play three women's singles, four men's singles and one mixed doubles match. Chen Meng, Fan Zhendong, Xu Xin and 10 others competed. Wang Chuqin / Sun Yingsha will play a mixed doubles quarterfinals with Egypt, and it is not surprising that they will successfully advance to the mixed doubles quarterfinals.
On the first day of the competition on March 11, the Chinese table tennis team can be described as a full line of red, and all eight men's and women's singles games were won. Lin Shidong 3-0 Dior (Senegal); Sun Yingsha 3-0 Winter (Germany); Wang Chuqin 3-0 Fark (Sweden) Wang Manyu 3-0 Liu Xinyin (Chinese Taipei); Kuman 3-1 Feng Tianwei (Singapore); Liang Jingkun 3-1 Gaozi (France); Liu Shiwen 3-0 Tian Zhixi (South Korea); Ma Long 3-1 Freitas (Portugal). On the one hand, because the opponents in the first round are not too strong, on the other hand, because the national table tennis players are too strong. I hope that the national table tennis crowd will still be able to maintain such a good momentum on the 12th.
Both "China Sports" and "Migu Video" will broadcast the entire Singapore Grand Slam matches live, which can be watched on both mobile phones and computers. Live broadcast schedule of major Singapore Grand Slam events on 12 March:
13:30 Xiang Peng vs Gross (Denmark)
14:00 Han Ying (Germany) vs Ito Mimachi (Japan)
Although Han Ying's slashing style of play is very good, Ito's forehand is very fierce and is not afraid of the cutting style. There is also it that Ito's backhand is raw glue, which also has a certain restraining effect on the way to cut the ball. Normally, Ito should be able to win easily. Maybe Han Ying still has some chances to counterattack in a dozen slashes.
14:10 陈梦 VS Hitomi Sato (Japan)
Hitomi Sato in Japan is a chipping style of playing, and Chen Meng should have no problem playing the ball. Normally, Chen Meng is an upwind ball, and it is not difficult to take promotion seriously.
16:00 Fan Zhendong vs Apollonia (Portugal)
19:00 Yoshinori Ishikawa (JP) vs Jang An (US)
19:10 Wang Yidi vs Chen Xingtong
19:10 Mixed Doubles 1/8 Final Wang Chuqin / Sun Yingsha vs Asar / Messerif (Egypt)
For Wang Chuqin/Sun Yingsha, the first game against Egypt's Assar/Messerif is not difficult. It just needs to be taken seriously, and the enemy cannot be taken lightly. Know that scoring and losing points in doubles matches is very fast. If you are not careful, you may well overturn the ship in the gutter. I believe that Wang Chuqin/Sun Yingsha can successfully advance to the final.
19:40 Tomokazu Zhang (Japan) vs Karnak. Jaha (USA)
This game is normally not suspenseful. American Carnak. Jaha is a very talented player, but not diligent enough. Or the lack of systematic training like China's. Zhang Benzhihe belongs to a talented and hard-working player, and his strength is in Kanak. Jaha, the probability of winning the promotion is very high.
20:20 He Zhuojia vs Ni Xialian (Luxembourg)
Ni Xialian's long glue straight-up board playing style is still difficult for ordinary people to adapt. However, He Zhuojia's backhand is raw glue, which has a certain restraining effect on long glue. Ni Xialian should be very inferior to He Zhuojia. Optimistic about He Zhuojia advancing to the next round.
21:00 Xu Xin vs Zhou Zheyu (Singapore)
Singapore's Zhou Zheyu is not strong. Xu Xin can show off his powerful forehand offensive ability to the fullest. Not surprisingly, Xu Xin should be able to win easily.
21:10 Lim Ko-won vs Lim Jong-hoon (Korea)
