The Olympic puzzle of the national table tennis women's players: Chen Meng VS Wang Manyu, who will dominate?
With the fierce battle of the Saudi Grand Slam tournament in full swing, the Olympic journey of the national table tennis women is becoming more and more confusing. When the schedule deepens, every game is like a life-and-death duel on the battlefield, and losing means that the competitive prospects are bleak. In this context, Wang Yidi's regrettable exit is like a bombshell, pushing the Olympic selection of national table tennis to the forefront.
And in this turbulent competition, Wang Manyu's name has gradually surfaced. As a rising star of the national table tennis women's team, her strength and potential are undoubted. However, on the stage of the 1/16 finals, facing the challenge of Indian player Batra, Wang Manyu seemed powerless and in no state. She only won one game, but finally lost with a score of 1:3 and stopped there. This defeat not only caused her to miss out on the championship of this event, but also suffered a major blow in the sprint stage of the Paris Olympics.
You must know that after deducting points, the original delicate balance between Wang Manyu and Chen Meng was broken. And this year's Paris Olympics is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for Wang Manyu to compete for an Olympic quota. With Wang Yidi's exit and Sun Yingsha's stable performance, Wang Manyu's competitor is only the veteran Chen Meng. However, at a critical moment, Wang Manyu's frustrated performance could not help but raise deep concerns about her Olympic prospects.
At the same time, Chen Meng seems to have ushered in her spring.
The doubles and team champion at last year's Tokyo Olympics has had her ups and downs during this cycle, but her overall strength should not be underestimated. Whether it is from the world ranking or the results of foreign wars, Chen Meng is an indispensable member of the national table tennis women's team. In the face of the difficulties encountered by her teammates, Chen Meng's steady performance made her a strong contender on the Olympic stage again.
Of course, Chen Meng is not without controversy. Her relationship with Marin has always been in the spotlight, which has put her under a lot of pressure during the competition. But now, with other teammates falling behind, Chen Meng seems to see hope of defending his title again. Will she be able to seize this opportunity to step onto the Olympic stage again and challenge for her second singles title?
So, in this Olympic puzzle of the national table tennis women, who do you support more?
Is it Chen Meng, who is in an up-and-down state but still strong, or Wang Manyu, who is highly anticipated but slightly disappointed? The competition between them is not only about personal honor and dreams, but also represents the future and hope of the national table tennis women's team. Let's wait and see how this Olympic mystery will finally be revealed!
