The Olympic Games are getting closer and closer, and the Japanese Table Tennis Association has also begun to comment on the national table tennis.
The Japanese Table Tennis Association spoke out publicly this time, hinting that the selection of the national table tennis Olympics is not transparent, bluntly saying that the Chinese table tennis players do not have the right to freely choose to participate in the competition and get Olympic points, and even listed the number of times the national table tennis players participated.
Such remarks made Japanese netizens eat melons one after another, and Japanese netizens commented: Among the main forces of national table tennis, Wang Manyu has participated in significantly fewer competitions than other main forces, and she is the one who is not liked by the leaders.
It seems that Japanese media and netizens are very interested in the national table tennis players, and in their eyes, Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha are the most involved and most valued among the national table tennis players.
Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha are both important members of the national table tennis women's team, and they have performed well in various competitions. According to reliable sources, Sun Yingsha has been very good this season, and she has achieved excellent results in many competitions.
Although Chen Meng did not win the singles championship this season, her performance is still very consistent. It is worth mentioning that Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng both defeated their respective opponents in the women's singles semifinals of the World Table Tennis Championships in Durban, and their teams also won the men's and women's doubles championships. The number of entries and results of these two athletes is undoubtedly a testament to their quality and contribution to the team.
And Wang Manyu because of the injury and the change of coach, Ma Lin, as the head coach of the women's team, considering the overall situation, Wang Manyu has indeed not received as many entries as before.
It must be admitted that Wang Manyu is the king of the Chinese table tennis team and has excellent results. She has excelled in all competitions, especially in international competitions. At the 2021 World Table Tennis Championships in Houston, USA, Wang Manyu finally won the Geist Cup and became the champion after a fierce battle.
Hou Yingchao, a retired national table tennis chipper, once praised Wang Manyu for his 100% foreign win rate this year. This fully proves Wang Manyu's strength and influence in the international arena. However, it should also be noted that, according to some opinions, Wang Manyu has won and lost three foreign wars in the Paris Olympic cycle. But in any case, she is an extremely important member of the national table tennis team.
The author believes that the Japanese table tennis team will inevitably make more noise to the Chinese team when they sweep their own snow in front of the door.
Earlier, the main leader of the Table Tennis Association, Yoshihito Miyazaki, said in an interview with the media that they are considering including the athletes' victories over the top three main players of national table tennis into the Olympic selection points system, so as to motivate the team members to work hard to defeat the Chinese team.
This strategy is intended to encourage players to perform at their best in international competitions, and like Tomokazu Zhangmoto, he will burst into full momentum every time he plays against the national table tennis team, but such a decision has also caused some controversy and questioning.
Japanese fans are worried about this, thinking that this means that the national table tennis can control the selection of the Japanese team, and can let whoever player want to play.
As we all know, whether it is national table tennis or Japanese table tennis, the selection mechanism in the past was to select the top three athletes in the world according to the team, the top two to participate in singles, and the third to participate in the team competition. This strategic adjustment may bring a series of changes and challenges.
For Japanese table tennis, I just want to say that each of them should take care of their own, and I believe that Ma Lin will also pay attention to Wang Manyu's foreign achievements.
