On 25 April 2024, there are six days to go before the final leg of the Olympic trials, the Saudi Arabian Grand Slam, and 16 days before the Olympic quota is announced on 11 May.
The singles quota for the women's team is not particularly clear, but it can be seen through the registration of the Saudi Grand Slam that Sun Yingsha, Chen Meng, and Wang Manyu must be in the Olympics!
Chen Meng, Wang Manyu
At present, the remaining question is whether Wang Manyu can grasp the opportunity given by the coaching staff in the Saudi Arabia Grand Slam, as long as he does not lose the foreign war and enters the semifinals, then this singles place will be firmly in hand!

So how did the two who are about to get the singles quota together face each other in international competitions in the past year?
Fat brother will take you to review!
Wang Manyu, who was born in February 99, and Sun Yingsha, who was born in November 00, are nearly 2 years apart and have fought many times.
Starting in 2023, Sun Yingsha and Wang Manyu have played each other 7 times in international competitions, and Sun Yingsha has 6 wins and 1 loss, and the specific scores are as follows:
- 2023 WTT Singapore Grand Slam, Sun Yingsha 4:0 Wang Manyu, (11-4, 11-8, 11-7, 11-8);
- 2023 WTT Star Challenge Ljubljana, Sun Yingsha 3:0 Wang Manyu, (15-13, 11-5, 11-9);
- 2023 PyeongChang Asian Championships, Sun Yingsha 2:3 Wang Manyu, (12-10, 7-11, 8-11, 11-5, 5-11);
- 2023 WTT Star Challenge Lanzhou Station, Sun Yingsha 3:2 Wang Manyu, (10-12, 11-3, 5-11, 11-9, 11-8);
- 2024 WTT Star Challenge Doha, Sun Yingsha 3:1 Wang Manyu, (11-8, 11-7, 5-11, 11-8);
- 2024 WTT Championship Incheon, Sun Yingsha 4:0 Wang Manyu, (11-7, 11-5, 11-4, 11-4);
- 2024 Macau Women's World Cup, Sun Yingsha 4:3 Wang Manyu, (8-11, 5-11, 11-4, 5-11, 11-8, 11-5, 11-9).
In the 7 encounters, Sun Yingsha won 6 times, including 3 clean sheets;
Sun Yingsha
Wang Manyu won 1 time, in the final of the 2023 Pyeongchang Asian Championships, defeating Sun Yingsha 3-2!
Wang Manyu
Of course, these historical results can only show the state of the two athletes in the past year, and give you a reference for predicting the future results!
At present, Sun Yingsha is only one Olympic singles gold medal away from the Grand Slam.
Wang Manyu is one more World Cup champion and an Olympic singles gold medal away from a Grand Slam;
In the Olympic arena, the players of the same association will avoid it, that is, the two players participating in the competition will not meet before the final, so the most important thing in the Olympic arena is the winning rate of the foreign association!
If you still want to see the statistics of the players' battle records, you can tell the fat brother in the comment area that the next issue will be issued!
