After Chen Meng won the Olympic women's singles championship, she was too excited and said "my time has come". This sentence seems fine, but why is it a lingering stain on her?
First, this sentence is too full. Too full of words will inevitably cause criticism and complaints. It's like having a child who finally won the first place in the exam, and he swore that he would always be the first place. In this comparison, you can feel that this child is really a little floating.
Second, the previous Olympic women's singles champions are not as high-profile as her.
After Chen Jing won the women's singles championship, she was forced to leave and became the first sister of Baodao. Then in the next two Olympic Games, she met the national table tennis women's general who should teach a lesson, and her subordinates would stay merciful. Because she still has to come back, she is afraid of being targeted, so her Olympic journey has become the scene that everyone sees: the female table tennis player who plays is broken, and only won the second and third places in the women's singles.
Deng Yaping won four consecutive Olympic championships before retiring in a hurry. She wasn't even 26 years old at the time. It stands to reason that one Olympic Games can be played. But she didn't do that, and for the long-term development of the women's team, she chose to retire.
Wang Nan participated in 3 Olympic Games and won 4 gold medals, she is also a three-time world champion, a women's doubles five-time champion, and even a mixed doubles title, and she did not say that her time has come.
Zhang Yining is a two-lap Grand Slam player who retired in his 20s. She just said that she had won all the championships she should have won, there was no challenge, and she chose to retire, which was the most high-profile thing she said. She was expressionless after winning the Olympic championship, as calm as an iron-masked killer.
Li Xiaoxia was very excited after winning the Olympic gold medal. But in the second round, she also wanted to leave the opportunity to newcomers and wanted to retire. She packed her things and was ready to go home. Had it not been for the repeated retention and pleas of the coaching staff, she would have retired before the 2016 Olympics.
Ding Ning is a relatively high-profile person. The first Olympics did not listen to the referees. The second Olympic Games won the championship. She thought she was okay, but as a result, she encountered the big ball era, which severely restricted her style of play. But she did not choose to retire, but struggled to support. As a result, everyone also knows that she was beaten 11:0 by Mimato Ito, so she directly chose to retire without slipping. How good would it be if she retired when she won the World Championship Women's Singles Championship and the World Cup Women's Singles Championship?
Finally, there is Chen Meng. She is following in Ding Ning's footsteps. But she is much more high-profile than Ding Ning, and her grades are far worse than Ding Ning. I don't know why she dares to say that her time has come! Maybe it's because I'm too excited, or maybe it's because I overestimate my strength. In short, her world ranking has fallen to No. 4 now, and she hasn't won the women's singles title for a long time. If she continues like this, she may really be even more embarrassed than Ding Ning when she retires!
