Liang Jingkun has been in hot form at the WTT Singapore Grand Slam and WTT Yinchuan Championships, and has achieved very good results. This upset loss put Liang Jingkun at an absolute disadvantage in the competition with Ma Long for Olympic qualification.
Wang Chuqin and Romania's Oveidou Ionescu played very easily in this match, Wang Chuqin took the initiative on the court throughout the whole process, did not give his opponent any chance, and won the opponent 3:0 cleanly.
Lin Gaoyuan was not excited enough in today's game, he was pressed by his opponent at the beginning of the game, and after losing two games in a row, he only won two points in the third game, although he pulled back one game. In the fourth game, the opponent won again.
Women's Singles 1/16 finals
19:10 Wang Manyu lost to India's Manika Batra 1:3, with the score of 11:6 5:11 7:11 10:12 in 4 games
Wang Manyu's loss to India's Manika Batra can be said to be a big upset in this competition. Despite the strange style of play of Indian players, they have also defeated national table tennis players in previous competitions. However, the national table tennis players have attached great importance to Indian players in this competition, and have also done some research on their playing style, Wang Manyu's loss this time is really surprising. According to the Olympic selection rules of the national table tennis women's team, Wang Manyu will be directly deducted 3,000 points if she loses this time. Wang Manyu is also at a disadvantage in the race for Chen Meng's Olympic women's singles qualification.
