Latest Battle Report! The finals were released by both sides, the world No. 3 and the world No. 5 both failed miserably, and the national table tennis locked the championship
In this Saudi Arabia Grand Slam event, Wang Manyu, the main competitor of the women's singles quota in the Olympic Games, unfortunately staged a second-round tour and missed the round of 16. Chen Meng has already eliminated 2 Japanese players, and has a tendency to win the women's singles Olympic quota. In the case that Sun Yingsha's position is relatively stable, if Chen Meng gets the Olympic singles quota, it means that Wang Manyu will not be selected for singles.
As a result, on the evening of May 10, in the semifinals of the Saudi Arabian Grand Slam women's singles, Chen Meng faced Hina Hayata, the first sister of Japan and ranked No. 5 in the world, and completed the sweep in four straight games and easily reached the final. The scores in the four games were 11-9, 11-5, 12-10, 11-7! The third game was very crucial, Chen Meng was 0-5 behind, scored 8 points in a row to overtake, and won 12-10 at the end of the game.
So far, Chen Meng has won three Japanese in a row, namely Miu Hirano, Miwa Zhangmoto, and Hina Hayata, and reached the final, which further proves that he has the absolute ability to participate in the Olympic singles.
What is a little scary is that Chen Meng spoke after the game, because she has a clear mind and plans for the final. Chen Meng thinks that it is not easy, and the coach is very well prepared before the game! I've met Japanese players in a row, and now I'm done with the outsourcing mission, and no matter who I'm facing in the final, I have to release myself and enjoy the game.
In the women's singles semifinals after that, Sun Yingsha defeated world No. 3 Wang Yidi 4-1 and reached the final, where she met Chen Meng. The specific scores were 11-4, 11-7, the third game was 13-15, and in the fourth and fifth games, Sun Yingsha withstood at the end of the game and won the game 11-9 in two consecutive games.
In fact, on the same match day, Chen Meng first partnered with Wang Manyu to win the women's doubles championship, and then reached the final in singles, taking revenge on Hina Hayata, which is indeed more energetic. After winning the women's doubles championship, Chen Meng was interviewed on the sidelines after the match: I am very happy to partner with Wang Manyu to win the second Grand Slam championship, and I feel satisfied with today's game. The opponent is very strong, we can win the game with such a scoreline, we are very happy! After the game, the reporter asked Wang Manyu how to celebrate the championship. Wang Manyu is very funny, and came to a sentence: Listen to Sister Meng. Then Chen Meng smiled happily.
