Liu Shiwen's absence from the Houston World Table Tennis Championships was interpreted by many netizens as a countdown to Liu Shiwen's career.
Why is there such a statement? In fact, this has something to do with Ding Ning!
Ding Ning has retired from the army and started his second life, going to school and studying, and his life is also unhappy.
Ding Ning's decision to retire is actually not sudden, in fact, as early as last year, there were signs, when the other national players of the national table tennis team were preparing for the Olympic Games and participating in the training and simulated competitions, Ding Ning did not participate, but gave the reason for his absence, and it took time to adjust himself.
Ding Ning needed time to adjust to his self-state, which was related to his state of being slightly depressed, and no one would have thought that Ding Ning's absence was the beginning of the countdown to his career.
Although Ding Ning also participated in some competitions in the follow-up, such as the WTT Macau Tournament and last year's Table Tennis Super League, but the clear-eyed people can see that Ding Ning participated in the game with a slightly relaxed mentality, especially the Table Tennis Super League, Ding Ning's player coach identity was shoulder to shoulder, "playing" is not happy.
At that time, the countdown to Ding Ning's career entering the retirement became a thing recognized by most netizens.
In the end, the facts were not unexpected, and Ding Ning announced his decision to retire with a Weibo that seemed to be caught off guard but expected by everyone.
Now, Liu Shiwen is absent from the Houston World Table Tennis Championships, and for the reason for the absence, Liu Shiwen also gave a reason, she said that she took the initiative and the team proposed not to participate with the team, it will take a while to adjust.
SavorIng Liu Shiwen's words, is there a familiar feeling? At the beginning, Ding Ning did not have the reason for training with the team, which was somewhat similar to Liu Shiwen's words, and in the end, Ding Ning did not play the return of the strong, but chose to retire with the passage of time.
I wonder if Liu Shiwen will retrace the path that Ding Ning has taken?
To tell the truth, Liu Shiwen is very hardworking, and she can feel her love for the sport of table tennis, so she still hopes that Liu Shiwen will simply adjust herself and then appear on the international field again in the best condition.
