The final list of the Xinxiang Championship has all appeared, with five players each in the men's and women's singles, of which two players have qualified for wild cards, Lin Shidong and Chen Xingtong, in addition to the previously announced eight athletes. Qian Tianyi lost! Lin Shidong and Chen Xingtong took the last train.
So far, all the athletes who went to Singapore have returned to China, most of them will be in Beijing for closed training, until the Xinxiang Championship, and some athletes will now go to Shanghai for business.
Before the wild card list was announced, there was a lot of speculation, and four athletes became popular candidates for wild cards, namely Lin Gaoyuan, Lin Shidong, Qian Tianyi and Chen Xingtong.
Lin Shidong and Qian Tianyi, as young players, can be said to have emerged from the tournament since this year, and have also played their full strength in the Singapore Grand Slam, Lin Shidong may continue to move forward if he does not meet Ma Long in the match, and Qian Tianyi has met Japan's Mimato Ito and French veteran Yuan Jianan in the match, and the two matches can be said to make Qian Tian a loud voice.
Although Chen Xingtong is one of the five golden flowers, his performance in the match is not satisfactory, although Lin Gaoyuan has a relatively good performance in the best possible match, but in the many previous opportunities, Lin Gaoyuan's performance is still palpitating, so before the official list is announced, Lin Shidong and Qian Tianyi can be said to be the most requested wild card winners.
At present, the number of athletes to choose from has increased, but who will participate in the competition, the national table tennis coaching staff must have their own considerations and choices, Qian Tianyi and Lin Gaoyuan Although they did not win the Xinxiang Championship, I believe that they will still see the wonderful performance of the two in the subsequent competitions.
There will be several matches before the start of the championship, and its Chinese table tennis team may send young players to participate.
