2022 Chengdu World Table Tennis Championships is about to start, although the World Table Tennis Championships registration deadline has passed, but the national table tennis has not announced the final list of participants, recently the Chinese table tennis team officially announced the national table tennis to participate in the World Table Tennis Championships team selection plan, in the latest world ranking, men's and women's singles ranking of the top four national table tennis players can be directly shortlisted for the team competition list, women's singles world ranking top four Sun Yingsha, Chen Meng, Wang Manyu, Wang Yidi directly shortlisted for the women's team participation list, and men's singles Fan Zhendong, Ma Long, Liang Jingkun and Wang Chuqin directly entered the men's team competition list. The last place of the eye-catching men's and women's teams will be selected through the team, and whether world champions Lin Gaoyuan and Chen Xingtong can catch the last train has attracted much attention from the outside world, and Lin Gaoyuan, who participated in the team competition of the table tennis competition in the past four years, will compete with Lin Shidong, Xiang Peng, Liu Dingshuo, Zhao Zihao, and Yuan Licen for a place.
Unlike the top four women's singles directly shortlisted team competitions, the top four men's singles directly enter the team competition list are full of some controversy, in the latest world rankings, only three people in the national table tennis men's singles ranked in the top ten, Fan Zhendong, Ma Long and Liang Jingkun won the top three, in addition, there is no other player in the national table tennis men's singles, Wang Chuqin and Lin Gaoyuan are only one place apart, Wang Chuqin ranks 11th with 1910 points, Lin Gaoyuan ranks 12th with 1780 points, The difference in points between the two is 130 points, the gap is very small, and because of this, Lin Gaoyuan's lack of access to the "straight through" of the World Table Tennis Championships team competition has made his fans a little dissatisfied. However, the rules are like this, although Lin Gaoyuan did not have the opportunity to directly qualify for the World Table Tennis Championships team competition, he still had the opportunity to get the last place through the selection competition, it can be said that Lin Gaoyuan's fate of participating in the World Table Tennis Championships team competition is still in his own hands.
Lin Gaoyuan did not get a direct promotion to the World Table Tennis Championships team competition roster can only blame himself, last month's Budapest Championships, Lin Gaoyuan had the opportunity to win the championship, as a result he had a huge advantage in the final in the case of a good situation, was defeated by the Japanese star Zhang Benzhihe reversed the lack of champions, if Lin Gaoyuan won the championship, then his points can surpass Wang Chuqin, according to the selection method of this World Table Tennis Championships, Lin Gaoyuan can pressure Wang Chuqin to directly enter the team competition list, Unfortunately, Lin Gaoyuan himself did not seize the opportunity. Lin Gaoyuan's key moments to drop the chain situation occurs from time to time, in the past year or so Lin Gaoyuan's performance has been bad, the state is fluctuating, losing is not a new thing, in this case, if Lin Gaoyuan is directly selected for the team competition roster is unfair to other players.
Objectively speaking, Wang Chuqin's performance in the past year or so has indeed been much better than Lin Gaoyuan, although there have also been losses in foreign wars, but not as much as Lin Gaoyuan has lost, and Wang Chuqin has performed very well in many competitions, winning the Men's Singles Championship of the Budapest Star Challenge. As the leader of the young players in the national table tennis, Wang Chuqin is the key training object of the national table tennis, his participation in the World Table Tennis Championships team competition is expected, before the national table tennis stipulates that the male and female players participating in the World Table Tennis Team Competition must have players born after 1999, the most in line with this requirement is Wang Chuqin, so Wang Chuqin's participation in the World Table Tennis Championships Team Competition is a sure thing, even if he does not rely on the ranking to pass the World Table Tennis Championships, he will also appear on the stage of the World Table Tennis Championships. Whether it is from the player's own strength or potential, Wang Chuqin's qualification for the team competition is a natural thing, which has little to do with Lin Gaoyuan's performance. Of course, as the world champion of the national table tennis men's team, Lin Gaoyuan also has a considerable strength, and he is expected to stand out from the team selection competition and catch the last train of the world table tennis team competition.
