Wang Manyu missed the Olympic women's singles and lost the opportunity to compete for the women's singles gold medal at the Paris Olympics, which is a huge blow for any athlete. Although many fans have expressed their support and Zhang Xuefeng has also given comfort, it is conceivable that Wang Manyu's inner wound is difficult to heal. 24 hours after the national table tennis announced the Olympic list, Wang Manyu was still silent and did not respond. Japanese fans are hotly discussing the competition between Chen Meng and Wang Manyu, although Chen Meng defeated three Japanese players to win the championship, Japanese fans secretly rejoiced, because they thought Chen Meng was better than Wang Manyu.
For Chen Meng, it is indeed a miracle to be able to appear in the Olympic women's singles. Before the Saudi Grand Slam, many fans thought that Wang Manyu and Sun Yingsha would join forces in the Olympics. However, the unexpected happened: Wang Manyu lost to Batra in Saudi Arabia, while Chen Meng's form reached its highest level in recent years, ultimately disqualifying Wang Manyu from the Olympic Women's Singles.
Although Wang Manyu can still compete for gold in the women's team competition, in the women's singles, she can only be a spectator. Such a blow is unimaginable to onlookers for her. Now, Wang Manyu has not publicly responded to the women's singles missing the Olympics and remains silent. However, even if he is interviewed, considering the overall situation of national table tennis, Wang Manyu is unlikely to disagree.
This topic has also been discussed in the Japanese media, and there is an opinion that Chen Meng's participation in the Olympic women's singles is more beneficial to the Japanese team. A Japanese fan said: "Chen Meng is past his prime, on the contrary, Wang Manyu is more difficult to deal with. I think that in such a situation, Japanese athletes have a better chance and a better chance of winning the gold medal. ”
Another Japanese fan said: "Although Chen Meng defeated three Japanese players, judging from the data, Wang Manyu has a higher winning rate against Japanese players. Therefore, Chen Meng's participation in the Olympics is indeed good news. ”
