In the second round of the 2024 Macau World Table Tennis Championships, national table tennis star Liang Jingkun and Swedish player Carlberg launched a fierce showdown. After six rounds of hard fighting, Liang Jingkun lost to his opponent with a total score of 3:4 and missed the next round. This defeat not only ended Liang Jingkun's World Table Tennis Championships journey ahead of schedule, but also caused the national table tennis men's singles to suffer heavy losses in the second round.
At the beginning of the game, Liang Jingkun showed a good state and easily won the first game 11:3. However, as the game deepened, Carlberg gradually found Liang's flaws and continued to exert strength in the next few rounds. Although Liang Jingkun tried to catch up in the second game, he still lost 8:11. Entering the third and fourth games, Liang Jingkun's state declined significantly, losing 5:11 and 6:11 in a row respectively, and falling behind by a large score.
In the crucial fifth game, Liang Jingkun showed tenacious fighting spirit and pulled back a game with 11:8, retaining the suspense for the game. However, in the sixth game, despite Liang Jingkun's efforts to catch up, he finally lost with a score of 11:9 and was eliminated with a total score of 3:4.
Looking back on the whole game, Liang Jingkun's defeat was not accidental. On the one hand, Carlberg played well, especially in the serve and return links, which created a lot of pressure on Liang Jingkun. On the other hand, Liang Jingkun made a lot of mistakes in the game, especially the inconsistency of his performance at critical moments, which was also an important reason for his loss.
The defeat in this battle was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Liang Jingkun. As one of the main players in the national table tennis men's singles, he shoulders the heavy responsibility of winning glory for the country in the Olympic Games. However, the performance at this World Table Tennis Championships was a big disappointment. This will not only affect his personal confidence, but also bring a certain amount of psychological pressure to the entire national table tennis men's singles team.
For national table tennis, this defeat is also worth pondering. In the second round, two main players were lost, and both were defeated by foreign players, which undoubtedly exposed the problems of national table tennis in preparing for the Olympic Games. How to adjust the state, improve the strength, and deal with the challenges of various opponents has become a difficult problem in front of the national table tennis.
Of course, a loss in one game doesn't tell the whole story. For Liang Jingkun and other national table tennis players, it is important to learn from failures, sum up experience, and adjust their mentality. In future training and competitions, they need to focus more on polishing technical details and improving their mental quality to cope with more severe challenges.
At the same time, national table tennis also needs to re-examine and adjust the overall strategy and tactics. In the process of preparing for the Olympic Games, we should not only pay attention to the improvement of individual ability, but also strengthen the cooperation and cooperation between teams to form a more perfect tactical system. Only in this way can we achieve better results in future competitions.
In short, although Liang Jingkun's defeat in this World Table Tennis Championships is regrettable, it also sounded the alarm for national table tennis. In the preparation process ahead, they will need to work harder, be more focused and more united to meet the challenges of the upcoming Olympic Games.
