National Table Tennis Olympic Standings Update: Wang Manyu overtook Chen Meng to rank second, and Liang Jingkun chased Ma Long strongly
With the end of the table tennis WTT Incheon Championships, the Olympic standings of the national table tennis have also changed, among which Wang Manyu surpassed Chen Meng for the first time and reached the second place in the women's team - according to the rules, if she can maintain this position, she will be able to get the singles quota for the Paris Olympics, but Chen Meng and her are only 210 points, so she may stage a counterattack at any time.
Although he did not come to Incheon to compete, Wang Chuqin is still the first place in the men's team standings, and the first place in the women's team continues to be won by Sun Yingsha, followed by Fan Zhendong and Wang Manyu, and the fourth Liang Jingkun of the men's team is very close to the third Ma Long, and the competition is very fierce!
The change in the Olympic points in this issue comes from the WTT Incheon Championships, in which Liang Jingkun and Sun Yingsha, who won the championship, won 1000 world ranking points and 1000 team selection points respectively, becoming the biggest winner, but Sun Yingsha was originally the first in the women's team, while Liang Jingkun has lagged behind Wang Chuqin, Fan Zhendong, and Ma Long for a long time, even if the total points of 2000 are added this time, they are still only ranked fourth in the men's team.
Women's singles runner-up Wang Manyu got 700 world ranking points and 500 team selection points, and the third runner-up Chen Meng had 350 world ranking points and 250 team selection points.
The other three national table tennis players who stopped in the semi-finals are in different situations: Wang Yidi has long been excluded from the Olympic singles selection, so the increase or decrease of points has no effect on her, and Fan Zhendong and Ma Long are still in the third and fourth positions of the men's team because their previous results are more prominent than Liang Jingkun.
At present, Liang Jingkun is only 1105 points less than Ma Long, but if he wants to qualify for the Olympic singles, he must at least catch up with the second place Fan Zhendong, but he has 8497 points less than Fan Zhendong, although the competition in the team is not over, it is still too difficult for him to advance to the top two.
Lin Gaoyuan and Chen Xingtong, the top ten main players of national table tennis, failed to get new points because they did not participate in the WTT Incheon Championships, and considering that the gap between them and the other main forces is too big, it is not surprising that they have lost the Olympic singles squad in advance like Wang Yidi, and the possibility of participating in the team competition is also very small.
According to the arrangement, the upcoming World Cup and WTT Saudi Arabia Grand Slam are the reference objects of the Olympic selection, and you can get points by reaching the semi-finals.
