In order to help the national table tennis prepare for the Paris Olympic Games, the Chinese Table Tennis Association recently officially announced important personnel arrangements, appointing He Xiao as the leader of the national table tennis team and Li Yanqing as a political counselor! It can be seen that the national table tennis is very concerned about preventing "gray swans" and "black rhinoceros", and whoever can go to the Olympics must pay more attention!
At the Tokyo Olympics, Xu Xin/Liu Shiwen lost to Japan and missed the mixed doubles championship, and the history of the national table tennis Olympics winning the championship for 17 consecutive years was broken, so that many people are questioning the residual value of veterans who have declined to form for the team. Now, the 35-year-old Ma Long is also facing the trouble of competing for the Olympics, compared with the defending men's singles Olympic champion 3 years ago, the Dragons are losing more and more times, Wang Chuqin has already replaced him and Fan Zhendong to form a new "twin star" in national table tennis!
In the micro-documentary, Ma Long responded to the serious question of whether he could go to the Paris Olympics, he said: "Before the Olympics, there will be many tests before you have a chance to finally go to the Paris Olympics." "It can be seen that the national table tennis has set a lot of thresholds for whether the players can participate in the Paris Olympics, and it is not a matter of two latitudes.
Some people also think that Ma Long is the oldest player with the oldest active qualification in national table tennis, and the national table tennis will open a back door for him, but in fact, seniority ranking in the national table tennis no longer works, and now social media is so developed, Chen Xingtong was targeted for using his mobile phone in violation of regulations during the WTT year-end finals, and Liu Guoliang did not dare to arrange Olympic candidates according to human feelings. If the Dragons really can't do it, they will definitely not be able to pass the final test!
And Malone also admitted that no matter whether he can go to Paris or not, he will train well and play well, "Of course, if there is an opportunity to go to Paris, I also hope to help the team achieve the best results." "Based on Ma Long's current state, combined with the actual situation of national table tennis, if Lin Gaoyuan can maintain his level of foreign warfare next year, it is very likely that the Dragon team will lose the men's team.
