In the fierce Macau Singles World Cup, Tomokazu Teo stood out, and although he only won the bronze medal, his performance was still excellent. In the face of fierce competition from six of China's top players, the bronze medal is particularly precious. In an interview after the award ceremony, Tomokazu Zhang praised the tenacity and perseverance of his opponent Ma Long, who never gave up when he fell behind in the final and finally won the comeback, which inspired Tomokazu Zhang to believe that he must learn to persevere in future competitions.
However, in the match against Lin Gaoyuan, Tomokazu Zhang showed some fatigue. Especially in the final game, he seemed to have lost and finally lost by a huge score of 1-11. The defeat exposed Tomokazu Zhang's psychological and technical deficiencies, especially his ability to cope with pressure and adverse situations.
Facing the media, Tomokazu admitted that he had almost no chance of winning in the semi-finals, which was in stark contrast to Ma Long's performance in the final. He said he needs to pay more attention to the strategy and technical details of the game so that he can better cope with the challenges in future competitions.
Despite this, Tomokazu is satisfied that he has been able to win consecutive medals in the World Cup and considers it a hard-won achievement. His younger sister, Miwa Zhangmoto, also won a bronze medal in this World Cup, which made the entire Zhang family very happy. Miwa said that this was her first World Cup to win a medal, which meant a lot to her, and it was a valuable learning experience regardless of the outcome. She said that she will try to absorb the experience of this competition and be fully prepared for the upcoming Paris Olympics.
The Macao Singles World Cup is not only a feast of sports competition, but also a comprehensive test of the athletes' mental toughness and technical level. Although the bronze medal of Tomokazu Haramoto and his sister is not the most impressive achievement, the story and experience behind it are a valuable asset in their careers.
