Late last night, the BWF officially confirmed that Marin, the gold medalist in the women's singles of the Rio Olympics, will not qualify for the Tokyo Olympics due to knee surgery. Marin suffered serious injuries during training that resulted in a torn anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus in his left knee. The comments of Chinese netizens seemed less cheeky, and many people wrote in the post: "There is reincarnation in the Heavenly Dao." Another wrote: "The heavens have eyes!" ”
There is a reason for the unkindness of Chinese netizens, during the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, After Malin was seriously injured and retired from the competition, Malin made a statement that Li Xuerui was a fraud, and suddenly her people were completely collapsed in the minds of Chinese netizens, and in the past 5 years, she made a lot of efforts to repair this mistake of the year but had little effect, and her failure to win the Tokyo Olympics in China was more ridiculed or ironic.
Malin, who will turn 28 on June 15, is also very good in terms of record alone, one Olympic singles champion and three World Championship singles champions. She is the kind of traditional European power type of play, fierce attack, multi-shot and strong ability to hold, in fact, her distinctive technical characteristics are also doomed to her later fate, daily training can tear the word ligament and meniscus, how much strength is this?
According to her condition, it will take at least half a year to recover. Judging from her age, it may be difficult to return to the peak even after recovery.
Ma Lin's unexpected withdrawal is objectively one less rival for Chen Yufei, the main player of the national women's singles, competing for the gold medal at the Tokyo Olympic Games. At present, Chen Yufei is 2 wins and 3 losses against Malin, and even some fans have predicted that Chen Yufei and Ma Lin may each win a championship at this year's Tokyo Olympic Games and the World Championships in Huelva, Spain, held at the end of the year. But according to Marin's latest injury, even if he can make a comeback, it will be next year.
