On April 11, after the qualification for the Japanese Table Tennis Asian Games was finalized, 21-year-old Miyu Hirano returned to win the women's singles championship in the qualifiers, and after five years, she will launch another strong impact on the Chinese team.
Regarding Hirano's performance in the qualifiers, Yoshihito Miyazaki, the godfather of Japanese table tennis (equivalent to the chairman of the table tennis association), highly praised Hirano, saying: "Hirano Miyu is very confident, she has passed on her mood of being better to everyone, she is optimistic about many people, and she has the opportunity to reproduce the performance of 'Hirano Hurricane' in 2017." ”
What is "Hirano Hurricane"? Fans who watched the Asian Championships 5 years ago should know that at the beginning, 17-year-old Hirano Miyu staged a "big skewer" for national table tennis at the Asian Championships, and in the singles competition, he defeated Ding Ning, Zhu Yuling and Chen Meng in a row, these three players are the world's top players.
Hirano's performance at that time shocked the table tennis world. Even Kong Linghui, who was the coach of the women's team at the time, called out that Hirano Miyu's advanced technology has brought great challenges to the national table tennis.
The rise of a Hirano made the national table tennis step up research, after which Sun Yingsha, Wang Manyu, and Chen Xingtong all became imitators of Hirano Miyu, and later, the three became the little devil of the national table tennis, surpassing Hirano in strength.
After 2017, Hirano Miyu tended to be mediocre, and often suffered consecutive defeats against national table tennis, except for second-tier players, winning a game, other times it was Confucius who moved - net is a book (losing). Last year, at the Olympics on her doorstep, she did not qualify for singles.
Now, after a period of precipitation, Hirano Miyu has signs of recovery, and the godfather of Japanese table tennis hopes that her wish to reproduce "Hirano Hurricane" may be difficult to achieve.
National table tennis Asian Games singles qualifiers Chen Meng, Sun Yingsha, has long been the world's top players, as long as they do not make mistakes continuously, not to mention in the Asian table tennis, even if placed in the world table tennis, no one dares to say that they can win them.
I hope that Hirano Miyu can recreate the former glory, and don't be beaten off by other association players before she meets Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha.
