Some fans believe that Sun Yingsha deliberately lost to Chen Meng in the women's singles final of the Saudi Grand Slam tournament. The implication is that this is aimed at Wang Manyu and deliberately does not allow Wang Manyu to get the quota for the Olympic women's singles. In fact, the derby battle between teammates has not affected whether Wang Manyu has won the singles quota for the Olympic Games. Everyone knows that points will be deducted if they lose foreign wars, and the match between Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng has no impact on Wang Manyu.
Wang Manyu's defeat to Batra in the Saudi Grand Slam tournament was still a matter of strategy in the match. Wang Manyu's previous match against Batra can be said to be left and right, focusing on attacking Batra's middle ball with a very good effect. At that time, Ma Lin, who was also an off-court guide, asked Wang Manyu to attack the backhand position, and he told Wang Manyu that there was no problem in playing this position.
In fact, in the case of ineffective attack on the backhand, Wang Manyu can attack the opponent's middle and forehand position instead. However, the opinion of off-court guidance Ma Lin still took the initiative, and Wang Manyu finally chose Ma Lin's game strategy. Therefore, what kind of game strategy the player chooses, what kind of game result will definitely be there.
Wang's defeat to Batra was a real surprise, as the player has always faced tough opponents in the international draw group. The most difficult competitors are basically pressed in her half, and if she can fully prepare for the game before the match, Wang Manyu can still cope with the challenge. Fans really want to analyze the reasons for Wang Manyu's loss, and they still have to start from this aspect.
Since the beginning of 2023, the coaching staff of the national table tennis has been adjusted, and most of Sun Yingsha's games are guided off-court by her head coach Qiu Yike. And Wang Manyu's off-field coach has always been Ma Lin, and before Ma Lin became the head coach, he was always Chen Meng's head coach.
Ma Lin is more familiar with her former disciple Chen Meng, and this master and apprentice have been cooperating for five years, so Ma Lin's off-site guidance for Chen Meng is seamless. There is still a long-term run-in between Wang Manyu and Ma Lin, including Ma Lin's off-site guidance for Wang Yidi, and there are also some run-in problems, so Wang Yidi has changed the off-site guidance.
Wang Yidi and Sun Yingsha's head coach Qiu Yike have a very tacit understanding in cooperation, Qiu Yike is still relatively calm in off-the-spot guidance, and can provide tactical support to players at any time according to the game situation on the field. Saudi Arabia Grand Slam Wang Yidi narrowly defeated Ito in the deciding game, and a very important reason is that Qiu Yike allowed Wang Yidi to strengthen the spin and limit Ito's speed.
Why do fans think that Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng are playing together? may also have something to do with the fact that these two players are friends, Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng used to be club teammates, and now they are club teammates. These two teammates are also friends who talk about everything, and Chen Meng's ability to win the championship in the last Olympic cycle came from Sun Yingsha's strong performance in the second half of the singles.
And the reason why the match between Sun Yingsha and Chen Meng left the impression that the fans did not do their best was because Chen Meng's oppressive attack in the game limited Sun Yingsha. Chen Meng's return position is more forward, which increases the quality of the cricket ball to a certain extent.
Therefore, Sun Yingsha did not have the upper hand in the ball holding link, especially in the backhand pull line, Chen Meng withstood Sun Yingsha's attack. The reason why the coaching staff chose Chen Meng to participate in the singles competition shows that Chen Meng's strength is not weaker than Sun Yingsha.
It is undeniable that in the last Olympic cycle and most of this Olympic cycle, Sun Yingsha had a tacit understanding in the competition with Chen Meng and Wang Yidi. Therefore, fans always have a kind of inertial thinking, thinking that this women's singles final is also a manifestation of tacit understanding.
Sun Yingsha still wants to win the women's singles final, because she has just won the World Cup. She wants to continue this quality of title at the Saudi Grand Slam, but Chen Meng at the Saudi Grand Slam has shown her strongest potential. Chen Meng was able to win the three main Japanese table tennis forces in a row, and the preparation before the game was quite sufficient.
In fact, the Saudi Grand Slam tournament will also have an important impact on the ownership of the women's singles final champion at the Olympic Games. Chen Meng's participation in the Olympics is not just to compete, the only goal is to win the championship. If the men's and women's singles champions of the Paris Olympics are still Wang Chuqin and Chen Meng, it will indeed be a joy for the national table tennis.
This will be Chen Meng's best return before retiring, in fact, many fans did not find that although Chen Meng is a veteran, he has been carrying out technical changes. Don't think that veterans don't have the motivation to improve their skills, Chen Meng has been using backhand side cuts frequently in matches recently. There are relatively few female players who use this technology, which is also an attempt by Chen Meng.
And Chen Meng also has some technical attempts to twist and pull directly in the service link, although he can't do frequent twisting and pulling, but the return swing short triangle gives the competitor a lot of pressure. The most obvious improvement in the past half a year should be the veteran Chen Meng, who did not have an advantage in the Olympic selection points before.
However, the successful counterattack in the final Saudi Grand Slam event proves that Chen Meng has the strength to participate in the Olympic singles championship in terms of overall strength. Sun Yingsha may be the most misunderstood player by fans, and in the eyes of many fans, Sun Yingsha has the most advantages in ranking and points, and the same is true in terms of technology.
But taking Hina Hayada as a reference and comparing Chen Meng and Sun Yingsha, we know that Chen Meng now has a greater advantage in the game against Hina Hayata. If Chen Meng can win the singles gold medal at the Paris Olympics, it will tie the Olympic singles record held by Zhang Yining, which is no less than achieving a Grand Slam.
Therefore, the fans still underestimated Chen Meng's overall strength, misunderstood Sun Yingsha, and misunderstood Wang Manyu.
