The Chinese Table Tennis Association issued the latest notice on the official website, announcing the list of athletes participating in the table tennis event of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, among which the most concerned women's singles event will be played by Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng, which means that Wang Manyu missed the Olympic women's singles qualification, although she performed well in the Paris Olympic cycle, Wang Manyu still failed to be selected, and can only leave regrets.
In the competition of the national table tennis women's singles event, Sun Yingsha naturally took the lead and locked in the Olympic women's singles qualification early. The competition for another place was very fierce, at the beginning, Chen Meng, Wang Manyu, Wang Yidi, and even Chen Xingtong had a chance, but Wang Yidi and Chen Xingtong fell behind respectively, and the final competition was generated between Chen Meng and Wang Manyu, and in the end, Chen Meng became the winner.
At the Saudi Arabia Grand Slam, Chen Meng won the women's singles title and performed flawlessly on her way to the title, defeating three Japanese players along the way, and also defeated world No. 1 Sun Yingsha in the final. On the other hand, Wang Manyu played badly and lost to India's Batra, and after being deducted 3,000 Olympic competition points, Wang Manyu could only become a loser in the end, watching Chen Meng qualify for the women's singles. In the end, Wang Yidi won the Olympic P card, and Wang Manyu was not even shortlisted as a substitute. The men's P card belongs to Liang Jingkun, of course, he can only be a substitute, and his appearance in Olympic singles can only rely on a miracle.
In the men's team event, Wang Chuqin, Fan Zhendong and Ma Long competed, while in the women's team event, the three contestants were Sun Yingsha, Chen Meng and Wang Manyu. At this point, the list of national table tennis Olympics has been revealed, and all the suspense has been solved.
