In the women's doubles field, Sun Yingsha and Wang Manyu swept the Ito Mimachi / Hayata Hina combination 3-0 and successfully won the championship. Under such circumstances, the national table tennis has won all the championships of the five individual events in advance, showing an extremely strong group advantage. On 20 March, the Singapore Race will feature its final two matches, producing the heaviest gold medals in the men's singles and women's singles.
Malone wins, and the replacement of the old and new in the men's singles is worrying
Compared with the women's singles semifinals, the men's singles semifinals are indeed a little worse in intensity, especially the match in which Ma Long swept Liang Jingkun 4-0. In the pre-match prediction, I believe that many fans will not think of this score. One-sidedly, Malone is much better than Liang Jingkun in terms of on-the-spot play and game control, too much.
At the Tokyo Olympics, the national table tennis accelerated the speed of the replacement of the old and the new. Many questioned Malone's age, arguing that he should voluntarily quit and give more opportunities to younger players. However, from the perspective of the game, Malone's state is still stable, and he is the strongest player in the national table tennis. Defeating Wang Chuqin in the quarterfinals, defeating Lin Yunru in the quarterfinals, and sweeping Liang Jingkun in the semi-finals, how does such a Malone retire. From the side, it also reflects the situation of the national table tennis men's singles, and the replacement of the old and new is worrying.
Wang Manyu can't afford to lose the game
Two singles finals, with different meanings. The women's singles finals are more explosive and heavier. This final can be said to be Chen Meng's revenge battle, and it can also be said that Wang Manyu can't afford to lose.
The selection rules for the Asian Games singles have been announced, and the women's singles champion in Singapore can pass through, and the world number one in April can also pass through. Wang Manyu is now ranked fourth in the world and can climb to third place in the next ranking. Even if she wins the championship and gets the highest 2,000 points, she will not be able to surpass Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha. Wang Manyu's ranking is inferior, and he cannot get a direct quota. If Wang Manyu loses the final, then Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha will play in singles. Therefore, Wang Manyu wants to play in the Asian Games women's singles competition, wants to complete the defense of the title, this women's singles final is a game that can not be lost, must strive to win, fight to a point.
Little Fat Manyu Who can become a double champion?
Sun Yingsha/Wang Chuqin won the mixed doubles title, Sun Yingsha/Wang Manyu won the women's doubles title, and Wang Chuqin/Fan Zhendong won the men's doubles title. Up to now, Sun Yingsha and Wang Chuqin have achieved doubles, and Fan Zhendong and Wang Manyu have held a doubles crown. Tonight's singles final will determine whether Fan Zhendong and Wang Manyu can become double champions. Singles and doubles doubles, this is also the heaviest doubles.
Whether it is Chen Meng against Wang Manyu, or Ma Long against Fan Zhendong, both sides are old opponents, their strength is very close, and they know each other very well. Chen Meng is eager to end the losing streak, Fan Zhendong wants to cross the mountain of Ma Long, Wang Manyu wants to impact the Women's Singles quota of the Asian Games, and Ma Long insists on loving it... All four are not short of motivation to win the championship.
Master duel, whoever plays better on the spot can laugh to the end. CCTV will also broadcast these two singles finals, which can be locked in to watch and cheer for the national table tennis together!
