At 10 a.m., the Chinese Table Tennis Association issued a heavy penalty announcement, canceling the qualification of national player Liang Jingkun for all competitions this year, which means that the Ma Long successor of the men's table tennis focus on training will not participate in the two important events of the World Cup and the Asian Cup. And the reason for all this is only because after Liang Jingkun narrowly defeated his teammate Lin Gaoyuan 3:2, a subconscious indecent celebration action, it seems that in the Chinese table tennis team that strictly governs the army, the spiritual outlook is the first, and then the technical and tactical level.
At ten o'clock in the morning of October 25, the Chinese Table Tennis Association, which had been silent for 10,000 years, suddenly issued a special announcement: the decision to punish Liang Jingkun of the national team. The decision said that in the first round of the 2022 Macau Championships, National Table Tennis Liang Jingkun made an indecent celebratory gesture after a difficult 3:2 victory over teammate Lin Gaoyuan, causing adverse social impact. According to the table tennis association's regulations on strengthening the management of national team personnel, Liang Jingkun was disqualified from subsequent international and domestic competitions in 2022, including the World Cup finals, the national table tennis championships, the Asian Cup competition, and the Chinese Super League professional league. It can be said that this is the worst suspension in Liang Jingkun's career.
In the first round of the Macau Championship on October 19, Liang Jingkun narrowly defeated his teammate Lin Gaoyuan 3-2, and after the match, Liang Jingkun immediately recorded a video to apologize to Lin Gaoyuan, "The subconscious behavior caused a misunderstanding to Gao Yuan and said sorry to my brother." Once again, apologies to the fans of Takato and Takato. At that time, Lin Gaoyuan also responded generously, "Everyone is brothers, don't affect the future games because of these small episodes." At the same time, Liang Jingkun also explained that he has not been in good form recently, and he is too excited to win in the civil war, so he is a little carried away.
But this explanation is not recognized by the Chinese Table Tennis Association, and they directly punish Liang Jingkun for indecent actions. According to the previous plan, Liang Jingkun, who is now ranked No. 3 in the world, will participate in the final of the WTT World Cup in Xinxiang, which starts this week. In November's Asian Cup in Bangkok, the national table tennis team also signed up for Liang Jingkun. Liang Jingkun was born in 96, in the talent and other table tennis teams belong to the late bloomer, before he once won Zhang Jike and Ma Long in the team tryouts, because of the solid and balanced playing style, by the national table tennis regarded as the successor of the hexagonal warrior Ma Long, and the current world ranking third also shows his strength, but after this incident, his table tennis career will encounter a trough.
In fact, the Chinese Table Tennis Association has always attached great importance to the spiritual outlook of the national players, even greater than the ball skills themselves. At the beginning, the national player Chen Xuan lost the team game, broke the racket, and after losing to Wang Hao in the 2006 Asian Cup, he kicked the stool and was sent by the head coach to the pig farm to raise pigs for seven days for reflection. At that time, Chen Xuan was still an Olympic champion, compared to Liang Jingkun's strength and fame, but he was punished for making a mistake, in the heart of Liu Guoliang, chairman of the Chinese Table Tennis Association, the championship is a symbol of strength, but it must be morally matched, which is also the fundamental reason why he strongly punished Liang Jingkun.
