On March 30, Beijing time, the WTT Doha Star Challenge continued, China's national table tennis player Zhang Rui played in the women's singles top 8, and finally lost 1-3 to Chen Siyu out, so far, China's national table tennis women's singles 11 people were completely destroyed, and none of them reached the top 4 of the women's singles, and the collective was out. Previously, in the qualifying stage of the domestic women's singles out as many as 6 players, a total of 3 rounds, a round of 2 people out, to the main stage, 8 rounds before the 4 out, Zhang Rui is the only seedling, now, even Zhang Rui has lost, the national table tennis 11 people collectively out.
In a WTT competition, the national table tennis sent 11 people to participate, but even a seat in the top 4 was not won, which was indeed an upset situation for the Chinese national table tennis.
Of course, this Doha event, Chairman Liu Guoliang of the Table Tennis Association chose to give up early, many of the main players of the national table tennis have previously participated in the Singapore Grand Slam event, directly chose to return to China, originally registered for the Doha event, considering the health of the players and the need to rest, including Ma Long, 8 Olympic champions and other main players have all withdrawn. Therefore, the national table tennis players who played in the Doha Star Tournament this time are all non-main players, but despite this, the 11-person collective fell before the top 4, which is also rare and needs to be reviewed.
You know, the current competition of the main players of the national table tennis first team women's singles is very fierce, the active world's No. 1 Chen Meng, just won the Singapore Grand Slam women's singles championship, Wang Manyu, born in 1999, is the world table tennis women's singles champion, and Sun Yingsha after 00 is the world cup final women's singles champion, these 3 have a strong singles strength. To this end, the outside world is very confident in the national table tennis women's singles, but this time sending 11 non-main players to participate, not even a top 4 place has not been won, or surprising.
Behind the overall strength of China's national table tennis is the serious internal volume of internal talents, and the players who can play famous are all through five levels and six generals, through layers of difficult selection and competition. Competitive sports are cruel, there is no human feeling to talk about, insufficient strength will be eliminated, and finally forgotten.
After the Doha event, the remaining task of the national table tennis first team is to prepare for the Hangzhou Asian Games and the World Table Tennis Championships team events, which are important large-scale competitions and need to win the championship as the only goal, for this reason, Liu Guoliang will let Ma Long, Fan Zhendong, Chen Meng, Sun Yingsha and other main players return to China to rest first, open the holiday mode early, in order to let the players relax, and strive for the Asian Games and the World Table Tennis Championships to play a better performance. After the main players of the national table tennis returned to China, Ma Long also went to the sea for a vacation, took handsome photos, and it can be seen that the Dragons began to live a "retired" life, comfortable and comfortable!
