On April 26, Beijing time, the Paris Olympics will come soon, but now it seems that there are still new changes and suspense in the battle for the Olympic quota of national table tennis.
Because of the Saudi Arabia Grand Slam today, there was a sudden sensational news from the Chinese national table tennis, and the two wild card places have been all obtained by us, and they have been allocated to two new pairs: Lin Gaoyuan, Liang Jingkun, Wang Yidi, and Chen Xingtong. suddenly took out such two doubles wild cards and gave them to the four world champions, what is the idea of the national table tennis coaching staff?
First of all, Chen Xingtong and Wang Yidi, they were both from Liaoning before, and they had cooperated in the club, but the best result of these two people is nothing more than a silver medal in the National Games, and that's it, this combination does not have a high ceiling. When Lin Gaoyuan and Liang Jingkun were matched, he lost to many opponents, and even lost to Chinese Taipei's opponents, but they were not so strong, but Liang Jingkun and the big head Wang Chuqin had better results.
But why are these four world champions suddenly taken out to re-form the team, and the combination that has been sealed for one or two years is taken out to play this competition again, and they are also specially given wild cards? The reason is very simple, there are still variables in the national table tennis Olympic competition, and now it is basically determined that there are three Olympic people, but don't forget that each association still has an Olympic P card quota, and now these four world champions are competing for these two P cards.
Specifically let them match doubles, in fact, it is also a very simple reason, that is, to prepare these doubles combinations, let the two of you have a positive PK and competition, in a fair environment, you and your partner to compete for the Olympic P card. Don't underestimate the role of this P card, it's still very critical, Wang Manyu was the one who took the P card at the Tokyo Olympics, and then Liu Shiwen lost the championship because of the sudden mixed doubles, and was finally replaced in the team competition, Wang Manyu, who took the P card, went to the team competition and won the first Olympic gold medal in her life, which led to her later outbreak, including the World Table Tennis Championships.
So now let Wang Yidi and Chen Xing match with you, and then fight for the P card head-on, whoever plays well between the two of you will give this P card to whomever it is, including Liang Jingkun and Lin Gaoyuan. Why aren't there three other people? Because the other three people either already have their own partners, or they have already locked in the Olympic trio, like Ma Long, Fan Zhendong, Wang Chuqin, Chen Meng, Sun Yingsha, Wang Manyu, what they want to fight for is nothing more than who is the Olympic singles and two singles? But the P card also has to be issued, and now the special test for them is to let you fight for the P card, and you yourself go to the team pk to see who this P card belongs to.
