In the semifinals of the WTT Saudi Arabia Grand Slam women's singles, Chen Meng vs Hina Hayada and Sun Yingsha vs Wang Yidi fought against each other and started a strong dialogue.
1. Chen Meng 4-0 Hina Hayada 11-9, 11-5, 12-10, 11-7)
After eliminating Miu Hirano in the quarterfinals and Miwa Zhangmoto in the quarterfinals, Chen Meng welcomed her third Japanese opponent in the semifinals, Hina Hayata. Every opponent is not easy to play, and you have to try your best to fight in every game, this is Chen Meng's belief. In the Women's Doubles final, she and Wang Manyu defeated world No. 1 Tian Zhixi/Shin Yubin, and are now in good form and morale. There is a strong desire to win the other party in one go, and this opponent of hers is Hina Hayada to meet in the semifinals.
Hina Hayata, 23, is in her prime and is ranked No. 5 in the world, just one place below Chen Meng's No. 4 in the world. The two sides have played each other 8 times in the previous matches, with Chen Meng winning 7 wins and 1 loss. But the most recent fight was lost to Hina Hayata. It can be said that the strength is equal. The level is similar. She is in good shape, her style of play is fierce, and she has no baggage in the national table tennis competition. It's not an easy game to play. Whoever can perform at a high level in the game, coupled with good reading skills, will win the game.
The process of the game: After the first game of the two sides started 3-3, Chen Meng quickly pulled the score to 9-4, Hina Hayada adjusted the state to chase the score to 8-9, and Chen Meng dared to make a move at the critical moment and ended the first game with 11-9. In the second game, Chen Meng played quite easily and won 11-5; In the third game, Chen Meng encountered the stubborn resistance of Hina Hayata, but with the calm handling of the key points, Chen Meng won 12-10, and continued to work hard in the fourth game, ending 11-7.

2. Sun Yingsha 4-1 Wang Yidi 11-4, 11-7, 13-15, 11-9, 11-9
The suspense of this game may not be too big, and I feel that Sun Yingsha's level is now the only one in the women's singles. It is not easy for Wang Yidi to defeat Sun Yingsha. Yesterday, Qian Tianyi was beaten by Sun Yingsha in a hurry, and the four games combined were only 15 points. The two of them usually train together and often compete together, and they know each other very well and know each other well. What are the technical characteristics, how to fight, etc., I already know in mind.
The process of the game: In the first game, Sun Yingsha quickly entered the state and pulled the score away, winning 11-4; In the second game, the two sides had back and forth, but Sun Yingsha controlled the situation on the court and ended the game with an 11-7 win; In the third game, the two sides played inseparably, the score rose alternately, and the two sides played until 13 draws, Wang Yidi showed his power in the key points, scored two points in a row, and pulled back a game at 15-13, and the big score was 1-2 behind. The fourth game was another stalemate, the score was very tight, until 9 draws, Sun Yingsha scored two points in a row to rewrite the score to 3-1 at 11-9. In the fifth game, the competition became more intense, and it was tied at 9, and Sun Yingsha scored two points in a row, 11-9 and the next city, ending the battle 4-1. Congratulations to Sun Yingsha for reaching the finals.
