At the WTT Doha Star Tournament, The Japanese duo miyu Kihara / Miyu Nagasaki swept the main chinese Taipei duo of Zheng Yijing / Li Yuchun 3-0 to win the women's doubles title. In the last regular season in Doha, the japanese table tennis pair also won the championship, winning the women's doubles championship in two consecutive major competitions, and they have become the main combination of the new generation of Japanese table tennis. In this way, the Japanese table tennis women's team has two pairs of main combinations.
Japanese table tennis now plays the ace combination of Ito Mimachi / Hayata Hina, and has reached the women's doubles final of the World Table Tennis Championships twice, but lost both to the main combination of national table tennis Sun Yingsha / Wang Manyu. In the recent Grand Slam tournament, Ito and Hina Hayata reached the women's doubles final again, but still lost 0-3 to the main combination of national table tennis and missed the championship. Obviously, Ito Mimachi and Hayata Hina have been attacked by Sun Yingsha /Wang Manyu, and it is difficult to make a breakthrough in the future. Unless the main national table tennis combination does not participate, Ito Mimachi / Hina Hayata has any hope of winning the women's doubles title.
However, the performance of 18-year-old Miyu Kihara is second only to Thato. Due to her younger age, Miyu Kihara had often competed in the youth category, winning the women's doubles championship in the youth category together with Miyu Nagasaki. After entering the Paris cycle, they can already start competing in the senior competition. Winning the women's doubles championship in Doha in half a month is bound to challenge the status of Sun Yingsha and Wang Manyu in the future.
The selection policy of Japanese table tennis is different from that of national table tennis, and the Japanese table tennis association is too bold in employing people. Taking the selection criteria of the Chengdu World Table Tennis Championships, Kihara Miyu was directly selected for the World Championships with the results of the top 4 women's singles in the Japanese Round of 32. The two main players, Ishikawa Yoshijun and Hirano Miyu, only because of the poor results in the round of 32, directly missed the team world championship.
If Miyu Kihara and Miyu Nagasaki can stabilize their results in the Paris cycle, it is not excluded that the next individual World Table Tennis Championships will replace Ito Mimachi / Hina Hayata in the women's doubles competition. In particular, the main combination of national table tennis is familiar with the playing style of the Japanese table tennis ace combination, and the japanese table tennis needs young players to impact the national table tennis combination. And Kihara Miyu's recent performance deserves the vigilance of the national table tennis women's team, she is the only double champion in the Doha Star Competition, which generally only appears among national table tennis players.
Although many of the main players of China and Japan did not participate in the Doha Star Competition, many European celebrities and the top players in the world ranking all participated in the Star Competition. Before winning the championship, Miyo Kihara eliminated the world's top ten Diaz, The main force of Chinese Taipei Chen Siyu, and in the final, she fought with han Ying, an experienced veteran of the competition, for 6 rounds. Although the opponent withdrew due to injury, Andi Kimbara won the championship was a bit of a fluke, but from the physical strength of the two, han Ying even if there is no injury, it is difficult to win in the decider. At that time, the situation was already inclined to Kimbara Miyu winning the championship, and in the future, Kihara Miyu will partner Nagasaki Miyu to challenge the status of Sun Yingsha/Wang Manyu.
