On the evening of March 26, Beijing time, the table tennis WTT Doha Star Tournament broke out again, Xu Xin's old partner, the 2015 Suzhou World Table Tennis Championships mixed doubles champion Liang Xiayin in the final round of the singles qualifiers fought a hard five-game crash, 2-3 defeat to Japan's Mori Sakura was eliminated, of which the fourth set 9-11, the fifth set 12-14, it is a pity.
Before that, Liang Xiayin lost to brazil in the main match of the WTT Grand Slam in March, and then lost to the 17-year-old French player in the WTT Doha regular season qualifier, and now the WTT Doha Star Tournament was defeated by Japanese athletes and once again stopped qualifying, which is really a house leak for her who has fallen to 83rd in the world ranking!
Liang Xiayin must have known more about it, although there was a certain element of luck in winning the Mixed Doubles Championship of the World Table Tennis Championships that year (national table tennis and Xu Xin contributed more), but she was also the top three main players of the South Korean team and an Olympic participant, and now she is not particularly old (born in 1994, the same age as Chen Meng), and did not expect that the competitive state had declined so seriously.
As mentioned earlier, Liang Xiayin participated in three international competitions in March, and the best result was the WTT Grand Slam qualifier and the "round trip", and the athlete who defeated her at that time was the unknown Brazilian Bruna.
In the subsequent WTT Doha regular season, Liang Xiayin was broken by the French teenager Pavard born in 2004, and was eliminated before he even reached the final stage of the qualifiers, and the battle ended hastily.
In this WTT Doha Star Match, Liang Xiayin won an Indian player 3-0 in the first round of the qualifier, but then almost broke the sand in the second round, and fought hard for 5 rounds to narrowly defeat a Hispanic Chinese athlete. Then in the third round, Liang Xiayin encountered sakura Mori, a non-main force from Japan.
In terms of personal results, Sakura Mori is not a famous player in both the international arena and in Japan, but this time she taught the world champion a lesson, first 11-6 to the top, and then although 7-11, 8-11 defeat was forced into a desperate situation by the other side, but soon won in the key points, 11-9, 14-12 reverse laughter to the end, successfully advanced to the main stage.
As a long-established athlete, Liang Xiayin should have been better in experience, but when facing the key points, he was obviously inferior to the Japanese player who was younger than himself, and even worse than the 17-year-old Pavad and Bruna from Brazil: Obviously, for Liang Xiayin, the road to re-emergence will be full of thorns, and I hope that she can live up to the time and create glory again.
