The battle for the WTT Saudi Grand Slam has come to an end. In women's singles, Chen Meng defeated Japan's three main players and world No. 1 Sun Yingsha won the women's singles championship. As a result, Chen Meng has surpassed Wang Manyu in the Olympic selection points and got the Olympic singles ticket. The result itself is already very convincing, but for some fans, they think that Wang Manyu's failure to make the Olympic women's singles is unfair. So where is the point of contention?

Controversy 1: In the Paris Olympic cycle, Wang Manyu has more singles championships than Chen Meng.

Fans feel unfair about Wang Manyu's failure to be selected for the Paris Olympics singles because Chen Meng only has 2 singles championships in the Paris cycle, while Wang Manyu has as many as 8. Below, let's also take a look at the comparison of the number of singles titles between the two:

Wang Manyu Paris Olympic Cycle Women's Singles Champion:

1. Women's Singles Champion of the National Games, 2. Women's Singles Champion of the World Table Tennis Championships in Houston, 3. Women's Singles Champion of the Singapore Grand Slam 2024, 4. Women's Singles Champion of the Macau Championships, 5. Women's Singles Champion of the Budapest Championships, 6. Women's Singles Champion of the Macau Championships, 7. Women's Singles Champion of the Pyeongchang Asian Championships, 8. Women's Singles Champion of the Taiyuan Regular Challenge.

Chen Meng's Women's Singles Champion in the Paris Olympic Cycle:

1. Singapore Grand Slam 2022 Women's Singles Champion, 2. Saudi Arabia Grand Slam 2024 Women's Singles Champion.

In terms of the number of champions, Wang Manyu is more than Chen Meng, so why didn't she open up the points distance with Chen Meng like Sun Yingsha, and let Sister Meng finally surpass her? The reason is: Durban World Table Tennis Championships, Nagoya Women's Finals, Wang Manyu was out too early, even if Wang Manyu won a few more championship women's singles championships, but the two major competitions lost huge points, resulting in Wang Manyu did not have much of a points advantage. On the contrary, Chen Meng's women's singles championship is small, she basically comes to the top four or runner-up position, there are no big ups and downs, the overall stability, Saudi Arabia women's singles won the championship, the world ranking points, the team reward points are five thousand points, Chen Meng successfully surpassed Wang Manyu.

Controversy 2: Sun Yingsha Saudi Arabia used less forehand, and released water to let Chen Meng win the women's singles championship.

Some fans believe that Sun Yingsha, a Saudi Grand Slam, did not exert all her strength against Chen Meng, allowing Chen Meng to finally win the women's singles championship, completely crushing Wang Manyu's hope of regaining the Olympic women's singles quota. In fact, the Olympic women's singles battle between Wang Manyu and Chen Meng has nothing to do with Sun Yingsha at all. As long as Chen Meng does not lose the foreign war in the Saudi Arabia Grand Slam and advances to the women's singles final, even if she loses to Sun Yingsha, she will already surpass Chen Meng in points. There is no need for Sasha to let go of the water and make a game for who will go to the Olympic singles.

As for Sun Yingsha's lack of forehand use in the final, the main reason is that Chen Meng has been fighting with Sun Yingsha for the backhand line, and it is difficult for Sasha to pull out her forehand sideways. Besides, Chen Meng was not inferior to Sasha in the forehand competition in the final. Saudi Arabia's three main Olympic selection points of the national table tennis women's team after the Grand Slam: Sun Yingsha 30,050 points, Chen Meng 17,960 points, Wang Manyu 11,865 points. According to the selection rules of the national table tennis Paris Olympics, Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng have no problem in Olympic singles.

Wang Manyu lost the Olympic singles qualification, and the most important thing was to lose the battle of Batra, and was deducted 3,000 points. Could it be that this game was also lost by Liu Guoliang and Wang Manyu? It's not that Wang Manyu didn't take it down himself?
