The Asian Championships came to an end, and the national table tennis created the worst record in history, only winning the men's team and mixed doubles championships, which caused huge doubts and left three major mysteries.
First, will Liu Guoliang be held accountable? Many media outlets say that the athletes' poor form is due to fatigue, and the main reason is that these people are mainly focused on the Chinese Grand Slam tournament with huge prize money. From Wang Chuqin's withdrawal from the Asian Championships men's doubles to the withdrawal of the men's team from the National Championships, and Sun Yingsha's withdrawal from the Asian Championships, it can be seen that from the overall strategy, everyone does not attach much importance to the Asian Championships. However, after all, the Asian Championships has a ceremony to raise the national flag and play the national anthem, and such a fiasco in national table tennis has caused public anger.
Second, who will take over after Ma Lin after class? After Ma Lin became the coach of the women's team in the Paris Olympic cycle, she reused Wang Yidi, who could not be supported, and Wang Manyu, who delayed the big killer, and repeatedly had problems in coaching, and was even scared to cry when she recalled the women's team final after the Busan World Table Tennis Championships. This time, the Asian Championships led the team to three major empty, failed to change blood, and used Sun Yingsha to confront the fans, if he stays any longer, the pressure of public opinion on the national table tennis women's team will become more and more in the future. It's just that if he gets out of class, who will be more suitable to take over?
Third, the national table tennis will continue to reuse the veteran Chen Meng in the future, or will it reuse newcomers such as Wang Yidi, Kuo Man, Shi Xunyao, and Qian Tianyi? At the Asian Championships, after Sun Yingsha retired due to injury, none of Wang Yidi, Chen Xingtong, Kuo Man, and Shi Xunyao could hold up the banner of women's table tennis, which has shown that they are not competitive. Chen Meng also said that the rise of the foreign association is a good thing, she has basically reached the stage where she can retire, and now she is still on vacation, the future of national table tennis will sooner or later be handed over to young people, what kind of way will the coaching staff take in the handover of the old and the new?
In the National Championships, on the afternoon of October 14, in the first round of the second stage of the mixed doubles of the 2024 National Table Tennis Championships, Lin Gaoyuan/Liu Shiwen of the Guangdong team defeated Liu Jialiang/Wang Dantong of the Jilin team 3-0. After the game, Liu Shiwen revealed that she had a nosebleed for three days, and she didn't stop bleeding when she got up in the morning, and went to the hospital before the game, but it was okay. And Lin Gaoyuan, who came from the Asian Championships, also felt very tired, how far can the "Poetry and Distance" combination go next?
