Fans said:
Lin Shidong's men's singles battle is very touching, if Lin Shidong wins, he will officially step into the realm of the world's first-class master, and if he loses, it will greatly blow Lin Shidong's mentality.
Time of foreign masters: 16:40 in the afternoon German star Qiu Dang played French main Simon, Simon eliminated national table tennis player Xu Yingbin.
Although Qian Tianyi won over Chen Xingtong, but from the strength point of view Chen Xingtong is better, although Qian Tianyi is the key training object, but it is difficult for her to enter the main figure of national ping, on the contrary, young generals like Lin Shidong and Xiang Peng are likely to stabilize the main position of national table tennis in the future.

On January 15, we are looking forward to the wonderful performance of Lin Shidong and Qu Man, and the opportunity to replace Lin Gaoyuan and Liang Jingkun in 2023 is ahead!
