As we all know, today's table tennis is influenced by the Chinese team, and few athletes from foreign associations can win the world championship title, and South Korea's famous Liang Xiayin is undoubtedly a lucky person, she once won the gold medal in the mixed doubles event with the national table tennis player Xu Xin at the 2015 World Table Tennis Championships, thus becoming the only world champion among the active athletes of the Korean team.
However, with the passage of time, Liang Xiayin's state was deteriorating. In a WTT Doha regular season matchup that ended on March 20, 2022, Beijing time, Liang Xiayin was once again exposed to the big cold, and the third round of the women's singles qualifier lost to the 17-year-old French youngster Pavard, who was only 17 years old and ranked 253 in the world.
Liang Xiayin is also a famous player of foreign associations who is also very familiar to Chinese table tennis fans, many people have mistakenly thought that she is also a Chinese player by looking at her name and appearance, and her cooperation with Xu Xin to win gold at the 2015 Suzhou World Table Tennis Championships has become a good story in the table tennis world, witnessing the deep friendship between the two teams.
In fact, Liang Xiayin himself once revealed that he did not have any great ambitions, "I am a relatively peaceful personality, never require myself to play to what extent, as long as I work hard", and the heavens seem to like to care for the hard work of people, as a result, Liang Xiayin got a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to cooperate with the national table tennis, and finally won the world table tennis championships gold medal, it is really a coincidence!
However, after the Suzhou World Table Tennis Championships, Liang Xiayin never achieved any eye-catching results, and fell below the level of the top three main players in the Korean team. In March 2022, Liang Xiayin played in the WTT Grand Slam, and the result was that the "one round trip" was eliminated, and he was eliminated 3-2 by the unknown Brazilian Bruna.
Immediately after the WTT Doha regular season, Liang Xiayin encountered the French young player Pavard, did not expect that this time she fell into the sand, and lost even more miserably, this time did not last to the decider on the 1-3 was eliminated, the last set was a crisp defeat (7-11, 10-12, 11-5, 4-11), it was really unexpected!
At present, it seems that Liang Xiayin, whose technical expertise is not outstanding, has been difficult to return to the top three positions of Korean women's table tennis, on the basic skills she is not as good as Tian Zhixi, who came out of China, on the quality of snowboard, she is not as good as 17-year-old Shen Yubin (although the recent injury is serious), on the particularity of playing she is not as good as the chipper Xu Xiaoyuan, The Choi Hyo-joo of the Shengjiaomen School and others.
In fact, at the beginning of this year, Liang Xiayin's state once recovered, and he won 2 gold and 1 silver in the Korean National Championship, but he did not expect to lose so badly in the foreign war. So can Xu Xin's old partner rise again? Leave it all to time to test!
