After the WTT Grand Slam Singapore station, the main competitive situation of the national table tennis women's team has changed dramatically, since wang Manyu, who was in a state after the Tokyo Olympic Games, is no longer invincible, and after losing to Chen Meng in the women's singles final, she also suffered greater losses which is very painful.
According to the official updated world rankings, Chen Meng has surpassed Sun Yingsha to return to the throne of the women's singles world number one, although many fans feel that the ranking does not fully reflect the full strength of the players, but in the game, the world ranking will affect their signing, and in this year's much-watched national table tennis Asian Games qualification selection, the world ranking has also become one of the key conditions to determine whether they can obtain the Asian Games women's singles qualification!
Before the competition, the Chinese Table Tennis Association has announced the qualification selection conditions for the Asian Games, the WTT Grand Slam Singapore singles champion directly passed, the remaining one place is based on the world ranking announced by the International Table Tennis Federation during the 14th week of 2022 (April 4-10, 2022), and the highest singles ranking is 1 Chinese athlete each. Because the women's singles champion Chen Meng is also the world number one in women's singles, the main player of national table tennis withdrew from the WTT Doha Star Challenge early, and Wang Manyu's points were nearly 2,000 points worse than Sun Yingsha's, so the second and last national table tennis Asian Games women's singles qualification has actually been extended to Sun Yingsha, who ranked second in the world.
In this way, Wang Manyu, the new sister of the New Science and Technology National Games, the women's singles champion of the World Table Tennis Championships and the new sister of national table tennis, will not be able to compete in the asian games women's singles competition! You know, Wang Manyu is the women's singles champion of the last Asian Games, after 4 years, it is her better state period because she lost a key game and lost the singles qualification, which is definitely a huge regret for herself!
Sun Yingsha, who stopped the women's singles semifinals at the WTT Grand Slam Singapore, updated the social media after the game to thank the women's doubles partner Wang Manyu, and Wang Manyu, who lost the women's singles champion, remained silent and did not cheer himself on the social media, which made people a little worried.
From a traditional point of view, the gold content of the quadrennial Asian Games singles competition is not low, Wang Manyu has a downward trend in state this year, coupled with the lack of access to the Asian Games women's singles competition, such a blow makes people worry about whether it will have an impact on his future career, after all, Wang Manyu has also encountered a bottleneck period before, the state of young players is easy to fluctuate, quantitative changes will lead to qualitative changes, can Wang Manyu survive the difficulties?
