On February 26, Beijing time, in view of the current severe situation of the new coronavirus epidemic in South Korea, out of the safety and health of players, staff and fans, the International Table Tennis Federation has decided to postpone the World Table Tennis Championships originally scheduled for March 22-29 in Busan, South Korea, and tentatively postponed the event to June 21-28. The national table tennis side was not affected and continued to train in Doha, Qatar. According to the training video provided by the International Table Tennis Federation, Coach Ma Lin personally coached Liu Shiwen, and there was also world champion Liang Jingkun in the picture.
Speaking of Liang Jingkun, he has successfully entered the world table tennis championships roster. However, at this year's German Open, Liang Jingkun gave Liang Jingkun a blow, and the first round was defeated by South Korean youngster Zhao Shengmin, and he was tragically attacked by a round of travel. Compared with other fringe main players, Xu Chenhao, Zhao Zihao can eliminate Zhang Yuzhen, Zheng Rongzhi and others, Liang Jingkun actually lost to Zhao Shengmin, which is a bit unexpected and disappointing.
The South Korean team, especially the men's team, has an average strength, and each can compete in good battles, led by Lee Sang-so, Jung Young-sik, Jang Woo-jin, Ahn Jae-hyun, and Lim Joong-hoon. You can often play with the main players of the national table tennis in the dark. However, Fan Zhendong, Ma Long, Xu Xin and others still have the advantage, but Liang Jingkun has the most losses to South Korean players.
In the 2018 Korea Open, Liang Jingkun defeated Zhang Benzhihe but defeated Zhang Yuzhen 0:4 in the final. Liang Jingkun shunshui people and gave Zhang Yuzhen the title of 3 champions. After winning the championship, Zhang Yuzhen jumped directly on the table to celebrate, and Liang Jingkun had to swallow the bitterness of the defeat in the first open final. Immediately after, in the 2019 World Cup team match, Liang Jingkun's partner Xu Xin once again lost to The combination of Lee Sang-so and Jeong Young-sik, and Liang Jingkun played badly in this game and was controversial by fans.
This matter has not passed, the t2 league once again lost to Zheng Rongzhi 3:4 on aggregate, and a wave of uneven waves rose again. Liang Jingkun is similar in age to Fan Zhendong and has the title of big fat, but has become a breakthrough point for the Korean team many times. In 2018, Liang Jingkun's rise won the national championship men's singles championship, and won the Austrian Open men's singles championship, and the world ranking soared. Liang Jingkun can defeat the main force of national table tennis, such as beating Fan Zhendong at last year's World Table Tennis Championships, but often inexplicably loses to the no-name pawn.
Liang Jingkun's technique belongs to the big opening and closing, but the delicate changes are slightly understood, and the control of the decisive plate is not good. Last year' Austrian Open lost 3:4 to Huang Zhenting and 3:4 to Malone in the finals. In addition, there is no advantage in receiving the serve, the serve does not change much, and it is difficult to adapt to the opponent's unfamiliar serve routine. No matter when the World Table Tennis Championships are held, the possibility of confrontation between China and South Korea in the men's team final is very large, but Liang Jingkun has become the weakest link of the national table tennis men's team.
