Sun Yingsha won the double championship in four games in one day, the ticket to the Paris Olympics is in hand##北京时间12月18日, the WTT 2023 women's finals came to an end in Singapore, Sun Yingsha of the Chinese table tennis team won four consecutive matches in one day, including two semifinals and two finals, won the championship in the women's singles and women's doubles events respectively, becoming the biggest winner of this competition, and also paving the way for her road to the Paris Olympics.
###Sun Yingsha's brilliant record###孙颖莎在本次比赛中展现了超强的实力和耐力, she partnered Wang Manyu in the morning semi-finals to defeat Japan's Mimato Ito/Hina Hayada 4-1 to advance to the Women's Doubles final.
Immediately afterwards, she defeated the host's rising star Lin Shiwen with a score of 4-2 in the women's singles semifinals and advanced to the women's singles final.
The interval between the two matches was less than an hour, but instead of looking tired, Sun Yingsha went from strength to strength, showing her excellent technical and mental qualities.
In the final in the evening, Sun Yingsha's opponents were all teammates from the Chinese team, and she first easily defeated Wang Yidi with a score of 4-1 in the women's singles final to win the women's singles championship.
This is her second women's singles championship at the World Series after the 2019 World Table Tennis Championships, and the second women's singles championship in her career.
Subsequently, together with Wang Manyu, she narrowly defeated Chen Meng/Chen Xingtong in the women's doubles final with a score of 4-3, completing the women's doubles title defense and the third women's doubles title in her career.
The interval between the two finals was less than half an hour, but Sun Yingsha still maintained high morale and stable performance, and did not give her opponent any chance.
Sun Yingsha's four victories in this competition not only allowed her to win two championships, but also allowed her to harvest rich bonuses and points.
In the three-day competition, she earned a total of 48,000 US dollars, equivalent to nearly 350,000 yuan, which is equivalent to earning 120,000 yuan per day.
In the women's singles event, she also gained 1,500 points, which allowed her to further widen the gap with the second place in the world rankings and firmly sit on the throne of the world No. 1.
###Sun Yingsha's Olympic road ###孙颖莎的这次双冠王的含金量非常高, not only because her opponents are all top players in the world, but also because her results have laid a solid foundation for her road to the Paris Olympics.
Although there are still more than seven months to go before the opening of the Paris Olympic Games, because of this Olympic Games, the quota for table tennis singles and team competitions is completely in accordance with the point system.
In other words, the top two players from each country can directly qualify for the singles and team competitions, while the third and fourth place players can only participate in the team competition and cannot participate in singles.
Sun Yingsha scored 1,500 points in this competition, which made her far ahead of other players in the Olympic points system within the Chinese team.
Although there is a certain difference between the Olympic points system within the Chinese team and the points system of the world ranking, the difference is not very big, Sun Yingsha can almost be said to be 100%, and she can get a team qualification for the Paris Olympics, plus a singles quota for the Baohui.
This is a huge encouragement and motivation for her, and a proof that she is not one of the best performers in this Olympic cycle.
Sun Yingsha withstood the double test of physical and mental strength in this competition, she played four high-level matches in one day, and the interval between the two finals was less than half an hour, which is a great challenge for any player.
But Sun Yingsha used her strength and will to overcome all difficulties, showing her spirit of not admitting defeat and fearless momentum.
She has played four games a day before, such as in the previous Asian Championships, but the intensity of that game is not at the same level as the intensity of this game.
At that time, at the Asian Championships, she met some low-level opponents in the previous matches of mixed doubles and women's doubles, and this time, her opponents were the strongest players in the world, either the superstar of the host country or the world champion of the World Table Tennis Championships, so her double championship this time was not easy and very respectable.
###The performance of other Chinese players###除了孙颖莎之外, other Chinese players also have different degrees of gains in this competition.
A total of seven Chinese players competed in the two events, of which Wang Yidi was the second most successful player, she won the second place in the women's singles and women's doubles events, although it is a bit regrettable, but she also showed her progress and potential, she won 1,000 points in the women's singles event.
###Summary and outlook of the Chinese team###本次WTT女子总决赛, the performance of the Chinese team can be summed up in four words: full harvest.
In addition to Sun Yingsha's double champion, Wang Yidi's double runner-up, Wang Manyu's women's doubles champion, Chen Meng's women's singles third place, Chen Xingtong's women's doubles third place, Zhang Rui's fifth place in women's singles, and Qian Tianyi's ninth place in women's singles, the Chinese team has also achieved a huge advantage in points and bonuses.
The seven players of the Chinese team earned a total of 116,000 US dollars, equivalent to nearly 800,000 yuan, accounting for more than half of the total prize money of this competition.
In terms of points, the players of the Chinese team have also improved, accumulating valuable experience and confidence for next year's Paris Olympics.
However, the Chinese team should not be taken lightly, as players from other countries and regions are also improving, especially the host team Singapore, as well as Japan and South Korea, which are all strong opponents of the Chinese team.
In this competition, Lin Shiwen and Lin Peiling of the Singapore team both showed good strength, reaching the semifinals of women's singles and women's doubles respectively, posing a certain threat to the Chinese team.
Japan's Hina Hayata, Mimato Ito and Miwa Haramoto also have excellent skills and tactics, and although they did not reach the final in this tournament, they have all beaten Chinese players in previous matches.
South Korea's Shin Yubin and Tian Zhixi are also a strong doubles pair, although they lost to Sun Yingsha and Wang Manyu in this tournament, they have won the WTT Grand Slam in the past.
Therefore, if the Chinese team wants to win all the gold medals in table tennis again at the Paris Olympics, it must remain vigilant, continue to innovate, and constantly improve, without the slightest slack and pride.
Only in this way can the Chinese team continue to maintain the hegemony of table tennis, win glory for the country and increase the glory of the people.
