At the 2022 WTT Singapore Grand Slam tournament, the second matchday match continues. On the first day, all 8 national table tennis players advanced.
Originally, I was also worried that tonight Chen Xingtong vs Wang Yidi's first round of "civil war" would inevitably lead to one person out, and would become the first player in the national table tennis to be out. Unexpectedly, at the beginning of today's game, Xiang Peng gave them a break, directly 0:3 "left", losing to Grote.
Xiang Peng defeated Wang Chuqin in the wtt regular season challenge in Oman, which just ended last week, and lost to Lin Gaoyuan; the men's doubles team won the championship with Lin Shidong, and the overall performance was good.
This WTT Singapore Grand Slam tournament, Xiang Peng started from the qualification tournament, it was difficult to get into the main tournament, but it was a "round trip", which was a bit of a pity.
Xiang Peng's playing style is not much different from a few years ago, it is simple, not rich enough, accustomed to playing "big road ball", most of the time is with the opponent in the middle and far platform to pull, it seems that the wind and fire are very lively, a national table tennis player plays like a European player, when playing smoothly, the impact is not small. But this time I met the European player Grote, who is tall and long, and The Cosmos Platform is their strength, and it is not surprising that Xiang Peng lost.
The short ball in Xiang Pengtai needs to be strengthened, and there are basically no relevant tactics in the game. In the case that their customary style of play is not dominant, there should also be a substitute plan.
In the national table tennis, in order to occupy the main position, it is necessary to have a skill, but also to be quite comprehensive, and there can be no obvious shortcomings. Xiang Peng now gives people the feeling that it is unstable. The qualification rounds for this WTT Singapore Grand Slam tournament, the first 3-2, the second 3-1, the third 3-0, plus this regular 0-3, four games encountered not a very strong opponent, but three of them lost.
Xiang Peng is also 18 years old, and Lin Shidong, who is 16 years old behind him, has begun to emerge and must have a sense of urgency.
