Chen Meng's best head coach is indeed Ma Lin, which is not only thought by fans, but also by Chen Meng. After Chen Meng won the singles championship of the Saudi Grand Slam tournament, he expressed his gratitude to Ma Lin. Especially when Chen Meng defeated Hina Hayata, the match had just ended, and Ma Lin stood on the sidelines and applauded with satisfaction, expressing her recognition of Chen Meng from the bottom of her heart. Because she knows very well that Chen Meng's defeat of Hina Hayada means that she has met the criteria for participating in the Olympic singles competition in terms of Olympic selection points.
Although Ma Lin only served as Chen Meng's head coach for half of the Olympic cycle, she became the head coach of the national table tennis women's team for the remaining half of the time. But after becoming the head coach of the women's team, Ma Lin did help Chen Meng even more, far better than when she was the head coach.
Because Ma Lin could only be Chen Meng's off-field coach when she was the head coach, and now after becoming the head coach of the women's team, she has also become Wang Manyu's off-field coach. After Ma Lin became the head coach of the women's team, she rarely served as Sun Yingsha's off-field guidance, and most of the time period was fixed as the off-field guidance of Wang Manyu and Chen Meng.
He also coached Wang Yidi before, and after the Busan Team World Table Tennis Championships, Wang Yidi's off-court guidance became Qiu Yike and Sun Xun. The previous head coach of women's table tennis was Li Falcon, and at that time, Wang Manyu's head coach Xiao Zhan was fixed to Wang Manyu for off-the-spot guidance. But since Ma Lin became the head coach of the women's team, Wang Manyu's off-court guidance is not that of head coach Xu Hui.
Wang Manyu only participated in the national table tennis warm-up match, Xu Hui was her off-court guide. In the international arena, Ma Lin gave Wang Manyu more guidance than Chen Meng. Chen Meng and Wang Manyu are mainly competing for singles spots in this Olympic cycle, and in the Saudi Arabian Grand Slam tournament, Ma Lin in the Saudi Arabian Grand Slam match between Wang Manyu and Batra insisted on attacking the opponent's backhand from the second game, and finally Batra won three games in a row.
Ma Lin's off-the-field tactical guidance ability has been reflected, and Wang Manyu has won many battles against Batra before. Only this time the continuous attack on the backhand position did not work, this is a tactical attempt by Ma Lin to fight against this kind of granular glue play. Although she lost this game, Marin gained coaching experience and laid the foundation for beating Batra in the future.
However, Wang Manyu was unexpectedly eliminated from the Saudi Grand Slam event, and it became more difficult to compete in the singles of the Olympic Games. If this Saudi Grand Slam event, Wang Manyu remains undefeated in foreign battles and can get a place in the Olympic singles. But her unexpected exit this time made the Olympic singles competition lose its suspense.
If the national table tennis does not adjust the lineup of the coaching staff in this Olympic cycle, under the guidance of Grand Slam coach Xiao Zhan, Wang Manyu has a great chance of getting the singles quota. Before the adjustment of the Olympic lineup, Wang Manyu's results were really good, and he won the singles championship of the National Games and the World Table Tennis Championships in a row.
But since adjusting the Olympic lineup, Wang Manyu has inevitably been affected. Especially after Ma Lin continued to be Wang Manyu's off-court guidance in the international arena, Wang Manyu's performance has been up and down. In fact, this is the run-in process between the player and the coach, after more than a year of running-in, Ma Lin's off-court guidance to Wang Manyu in the Saudi Arabia Grand Slam tournament also had an important impact on Chen Meng.
This is the real role of Ma Lin, which is to help her disciples participate in the Olympic Games at the most critical moment of the singles competition in the Olympic Games. Although Ma Lin is the head coach of the women's team, he is also Chen Meng's head coach, and his role in Chen Meng is very obvious. Ma Lin has been under tremendous pressure for more than a year, and he has always supported Chen Meng at critical moments.
Especially in the trials before the start of the World Table Tennis Championships last year, Ma Lin has been encouraging Chen Meng when she was in a downturn, he said that Chen Meng is still the core player of this Olympic Games, and finally let Chen Meng get the singles quota of the World Table Tennis Championships. Chen Meng was able to rise again, and Ma Lin really contributed a lot.
The repeated changes to the rules of this Olympic selection cycle illustrate the fierceness of competition for singles spots. If the singles competition is not suspenseful, it is unlikely that the rules will be changed. Chen Meng won two singles championships in this Olympic cycle, but he was able to do it without deducting points, reflecting the advantages of the rules.
Because there is a time lag in deducting points for losing foreign wars, the national table tennis still made an explanation on the rules of the Olympic trials. The foreign battles that were lost before and the foreign battles that were lost after were completely different in terms of point selection rules. At present, Chen Meng ranks second in the total points of the Olympic selection, and Wang Manyu ranks third, who can get the singles quota for the Olympic Games?
Wang Manyu's biggest advantage in the Olympic cycle is that she won the singles championship in 8 tournaments, and won the women's doubles championship 10 times in a row, and Chen Meng won the singles championship in two tournaments. Wang Manyu's balance in singles and doubles has been reflected, and he has turned the tide in the team competition many times, which are all achievements that are remembered by fans.
It is estimated that the national table tennis will go through a collective vote when announcing the selection list for the Olympic Games, and of course, the national table tennis can also directly announce the quota in accordance with the selection rules of the Olympic Games. Wang Manyu still has hope of securing a place in the singles at the Olympics, and the technical advancement of this player has won the recognition of Grand Slam predecessor Zhang Yining.
Therefore, the suspense of the Olympic competition will be maintained until the last moment, I don't know what fans and friends think, welcome to leave a message to discuss.
