On May 6, Beijing time, the mixed doubles 1/8 finals of the Saudi Arabia Grand Slam Table Tennis were in full swing, with Hong Kong, China's Wong Chun-ting/To Hoi Kim facing Canada's Li Yuanzhang/Liao Guihua pair. As a result, Huang Zhenting/Du Kaiqin eliminated their opponents 3-0 and advanced to the quarterfinals of mixed doubles. In the second game, the Hong Kong team was very ferocious, refusing to concede the ball to hit others 11-0! This is also the first 11-0 in this Saudi Grand Slam!
Huang Zhenting suffered a black start in the singles match, losing 2-3 to Spain's Robles, throwing away the racket at the moment of loss, Huang Zhenting was not very satisfied with his performance, so he must make a difference in the mixed doubles match. Du Kaiqin will next face Japan's Misei Ito, which is also a situation of more than lucky. Therefore, the Hong Kong mixed doubles pair must be aiming to win!
After the start of the game, Huang Zhenting/Du Kaiqin started quickly, and then the game was one-sided, Li Yuanzhang/Liao Guihua was powerless, and soon fell into a scoreless situation, Huang Zhenting/Du Kaiqin won 11-4 and got off to a good start!
In the second game, the scene was even more exaggerated, from 3-0 in the opening game to 5-0 and then to 10-0 in the second half, I thought that Wong Chun Ting/Du Kaiqin chose to concede a point, but the Hong Kong combination showed no mercy and blasted out an 11-0 disparity score, which is simply murderous!
In the third game, Huang Zhenting/Du Kaiqin was like a bamboo, Li Yuanzhang/Liao Guihua had no choice, the game was one-sided again, Huang Zhenting/Du Kaiqin accelerated the tempo, Li Yuanzhang/Liao Guihua was powerless to fight back, and finally the Hong Kong combination killed the game 11-4!
In the mixed doubles 1/8 finals of other matches, Romania's Ionescu/Szokos won a big package and won without a fight: the opponent Egyptian pair Assal/Meshev retired!
In Men's Doubles, Pettyer/Chan Ho-wah (Hong Kong) also received a big gift, while the British pair of Pitchford/Jinkhall withdrew. It's time to say goodbye to the international arena for a while.
The multinational pair of Teiku Matsushima/Wu Huicheng narrowly defeated the German pair of Qiu Dang/Duda (11-6, 11-2, 6-11, 9-11, 15-13) 3-2, which should be considered a small upset.
In women's doubles, the multinational pair Liu Yangzi/Wu Yonglin caused a big upset, beating the Japanese pair Miu Hirano/Miwa Zhang (11-8, 11-8, 10-12, 11-8) 3-1, which to some extent cleared an obstacle for the national table tennis!
