With the Paris Olympics approaching, the major table tennis associations are in intense training and preparation, although the Chinese team's Olympic roster has not yet been officially announced, but all parties have guessed that 7788, Ma Long, Fan Zhendong, Wang Chuqin, Sun Yingsha, Chen Meng, Wang Manyu, may be these 6 will be on the Olympics, the only suspense lies in who will play in singles. At present, judging from the Olympic points and world rankings, Sun Yingsha seems to have no suspense in singles. On the Japanese side next door, several major forces also regard Sun Yingsha as their main target. Recently, former world champion and Japanese table tennis sister Kasumi Ishikawa was interviewed and talked about the current situation of the Japanese team, and also mentioned Sun Yingsha.
Kasumi Ishikawa has retired, but she is still loved by Chinese and Japanese fans, and she often participates in activities on major platforms, and recently Kinoshita Tokyo held an event, Kasumi Ishikawa announced that she will be a special guest commentator and sports ambassador for the Paris Olympics. In an environment where the confrontation between China and Japan is the focus, coupled with the identity of this occasion, Kasumi Ishikawa will inevitably be asked what he thinks of the younger generation of the Japanese team and the players of the Chinese team.
Kasumi Ishikawa is very serious, and she shows that the Japanese team is improving now. Speaking of Miyu Hirano first, she believes that Miu Hirano is very explosive, in the past 2 years, Miu Hirano has new technology, and has defeated the main force of the Chinese team, Wang Yidi and Sun Yingsha, at the team World Table Tennis Championships, the strength of doubles was also shown, although the Japanese team finally lost to China 2-3.
When it comes to Miwa Zhangmoto, Kasumi Ishikawa has been encouraging: "Miwa Zhang lost two sets at the team World Table Tennis Championships, and the situation was very tense at the time, which was a valuable experience, and she has been working hard to finally qualify for the Paris Olympics. Every time I see her, I feel that she has improved again, I hope she can play motivated, the best way is to go all out, hold every ball to fight, and leave no regrets for yourself, so that the two sisters Hina Hayada and Miu Hirano also improve. ”
When it comes to the Chinese team, Kasumi Ishikawa inevitably talks about Sun Yingsha first, she knows that Hina Hayada and Miu Hirano, two singles players, mentioned in many interviews that they had to beat Sun Yingsha to win the championship. Kasumi Ishikawa did not hesitate to praise the queen of the world Sun Yingsha: "From Sun Yingsha's body, I feel the potential power of China, she is very strong, and I have fought with her many times, so I know how strong she is, and the Chinese team may fall behind, but from her I see not only technical strength, but also mental strength, which shocked me." ”
Ishikawa Kasumi's words are not a compliment to Sun Yingsha, she saw the spirit of the Chinese team, like the team World Table Tennis Championships, even if the big score is 1-2 behind, still fight point by point to finally achieve a reversal;
