With the second round of the Grand Slam singles tournament, the national table tennis opponents have been eliminated one after another. If the South Korean team is more miserable, Jang Woo-jin and Lee Sang-so suffered a round trip, then the Swedish team is equally bad, even a little pitiful, 2 World Table Tennis Singles runners-up Fark and Moregard have all been out, and it is impossible to create a good result in the Grand Slam.
Falke was the first to go out, losing 0-3 to the main player of national table tennis Wang Chuqin. Falk was the runner-up in singles at the 2019 World Table Tennis Championships and created some difficulties for Malone in the final. However, in the past two years, Falke has performed averagely, often upsetting out. But at last year's World Table Tennis Championships in Houston, Fark and his teammates won the men's doubles championship, and their personal strength is still among the best in the world. In the match with Wang Chuqin, he played wonderful balls many times, and if he did not hesitate to shoot, he had the opportunity to drag the game to the decider.
As a typical European playing style player, Fark has a certain amount of attacking power. Moreover, European players have a longer career life, and Fark's threat to national table tennis is not over. It's just that Falke's singles ability has a downward trend, and whether he can stabilize the main position in the future will be marked with a question mark.
And last year's Houston World Table Tennis Championships singles runner-up Moregard lost 2-3 to the German men's team No. 4 Duda out. Moregaard is a young player of the post-00 generation, who was still competing in the youth group last year, and the result was a good signing at the World Table Tennis Championships, and the semi-final eliminated the German veteran Bohr to advance to the final. Now Duda eliminated Moregaard, which is also counted as revenge for his teammates. Judging from the course of the game, Moregaard has strong forehand ability, but the game is easy to be impatient, or lack of competition exercise.
Although Duda is not the core main force of the German team, he won the P card of the Tokyo Olympic Games and is also the main player of the German team in the competition. Moreover, Duda's experience in the competition is stronger than Moregaard's, and he dared to shoot at key moments, which narrowly defeated the singles runner-up of the World Table Tennis Championships in five sets. After the failure of the Grand Slam, for Moregaard's career is a growth, and the threat to national table tennis in the future will only grow.
Sweden's two most promising medal-winning players are out, depending on how veteran Persson can play. And the performance of the Swedish team can easily affect the Chengdu Team World Table Tennis Championships held in September, when Fark and Moregaard are the focus of the Swedish team, if they can not defeat the opponent in the key game, it is difficult for the Swedish team to surpass the German team in the European arena.
However, Fark's main focus is on the men's doubles competition, last year he partnered with teammate Karlsson, won the World Table Tennis Championships doubles title, and now he is teaming up again to participate in grand slams, and the goal of the two is naturally the championship. The national table tennis duo Fan Zhendong /Wang Chuqin needs to be wary of this pair of fierce rivals, and since Wang Chuqin can defeat Falke in singles matches, doubles matches still have the ability to defeat him again.
