On March 26, 2022, Beijing time, the WTT Doha Star Challenge ended the first day of the qualifying round. The national table tennis was mixed, with good results in the singles field, but the men's doubles team lost 2-3 and had no chance to compete for the championship. Because the national table tennis did not register for the women's doubles and mixed doubles, the next step is to fully impact the men's singles championship and the women's singles championship.
The main players of the national table tennis retired from the tournament, and the young players participated in the regular challenge and the star challenge consecutively. In the regular challenge that ended before, the national table tennis won the women's singles championship and the men's singles championship, and the young players were eye-catching. The Star Challenge is more level-up and the title race is more difficult.
The national table tennis will not participate in the women's doubles and mixed doubles competitions, and the men's doubles originally had two pairs of combinations to play in the qualifiers, but Liang Guodong/Zeng Beixun disappeared from the signing table, which was a temporary retirement. Zhao Zihao led the straight board combination to play in the men's doubles qualifier, and the result was a 2-3 loss to Walter/Gross, missing the regular match. At this point, the national table tennis men's doubles army was completely destroyed, and the three doubles projects of this station had nothing to do with the national table tennis.
In the men's singles qualifier, the national table tennis team went all out to play, and eliminated 3 Famous Players of Japan on the first match day. Zhou Qihao defeated Yuji Tanaka 3-1, Yuan Lichen eliminated Muzo Yongren 3-1, and Yu Ziyang eliminated Shen Qiaoya 3-1. In addition, Liu Dingshuo beat the dark horse Alex Lebrun in the previous leg 3-2, and Sun Wen, who was known as Zhang Benzhi and the bitter lord, also played 5 sets and narrowly won 3-2 against Olach.
At present, Yuan Licen, Yu Ziyang, Sun Wen and others have advanced to the third round of the qualifiers, Zhou Qihao and Liu Dingshuo will play in the second round of the qualifiers on the next match day, and if Zhou Qihao wins, he will start a derby with Sun Wen. The only one to lose was Tan Yuanyu, who lost to Singapore's Fung Yiu-eun in the second round of qualifying, with a score of 2-3, and missed the regular match in advance.
In the women's singles qualifier, Yang Huijing and Zhang Rui took the lead in advancing to the third round, and Qi Fei, Fan Siqi, ZhongGeman and Zhu Sibing played in the second round of the qualifiers, and if Zhu Sibing won, he would play against Zhang Rui in the third round. Qin Yuxuan, Chen Yi, Shi Xunyao were out early, and Chen Yi lost 0-3 to Zhang Benmeihe, which needed to be summed up well.
Overall, because there were many withdrawals before the game, the signing table changed more. Next, the national table tennis only participates in the men's singles and women's singles competitions, the opponent is strong, the difficulty of fighting for the championship is indeed very large, only to let go!
