In Men's Doubles, the Chinese team sent two pairs, Wang Chuqin/Lin Shidong and Zhou Qihao/Lin Gaoyuan!
In fact, through the list of participants in this Asian Championships, we can see that the current pattern of national table tennis has changed a lot.
In this Asian Championships, Ma Long, Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng did not participate in the competition, which also shows that in the new Olympic cycle, the national table tennis has begun to consciously train newcomers and give young athletes more opportunities.
In this Asian Championships, Lin Shidong, Xiang Peng, Xu Yingbin and Zhou Qihao of the men's team, as well as Kuo Man and Shi Xunyao of the women's team, are participating in the Asian Championships for the first time! Among these athletes, except for Zhou Qihao, who is older, the other athletes are also very young players! This also shows that at present, the national table tennis has begun to increase the training of young athletes!
In this Asian Championships, Lin Shidong and Kuo Man are both four-sport, which can also be seen how much national table tennis attaches importance to these two young athletes! The two compete not only in singles and teams, but also in doubles and mixed doubles!
This is also a good opportunity for Lin Shidong and Kuo Man to take the position, if the two can seize the opportunity and achieve good results in this Asian Championships, the two may be among the main layer!
But for Lin Gaoyuan and Chen Xingtong, through the arrangement of the Asian Championships, it can be seen that the situation of the two in the team is now very bad!
First of all, Lin Gaoyuan was absent from the singles match of this Asian Championships! This is somewhat unexpected, after all, in the case of Ma Long Fan Zhendong not participating, Lin Gaoyuan, as one of the original five main forces, should be able to get a singles place!
However, this time, the coaching staff did not let Lin Gaoyuan play singles, but let Lin Shidong, Xiang Peng and Xu Yingbin, three young people, participate in singles, which also shows that even if there is no Ma Long Fan Zhendong, Lin Gaoyuan may fade out of the main layer!
But fortunately, Lin Gaoyuan is a left-handed athlete, which also gives Lin Gaoyuan a certain advantage in doubles, so in this Asian Championships, Lin Gaoyuan will still participate in the men's doubles and mixed doubles competitions!
The second is Chen Xingtong, this Asian Championships, Chen Xingtong did not participate in one! This also shows that the current position of Chen Xingtong in the team is already very dangerous!
If this group of young athletes such as Kuo Man and Shi Xunyao have outstanding performances, Chen Xingtong may fade out of the main force!
The new cycle has begun, and the pattern of national table tennis has also undergone new changes. Let's wait and see!
