In the men's singles round of 32 of the Paris Olympic table tennis that ended on July 31, Beijing time, the world's No. 1 Chinese star Wang Chuqin broke out a big upset 2-4 to the world No. 26 Sweden's Moregard and missed the round of 16. After the game, many fans blamed Wang Chuqin's defeat on the racket.
In this regard, Li Pingkang, a well-known media person, does not agree with such a statement: "Don't blame the racket if you lose!" If a tennis player doesn't play well, he still gets angry when he throws the racket, so if he doesn't change it, he will continue to play! Obviously, I made too many mistakes, and I was the same when I was mixed doubles before, if Sun Yingsha wasn't too strong, I might have been out of the top 16 or top 8! It can only be said that Sun Yingsha is too strong, and won the mixed doubles gold medal with a men's singles top 32 player! ”
In the previous mixed doubles competition, Wang Chuqin and Sun Yingsha partnered to win the gold medal. But after the match, Wang Chuqin's racket was broken by the photographer, which directly caused him to have to use a spare shot in this men's singles match, which obviously also affected Wang Chuqin's performance.
As soon as he came up, Wang Chuqin lost 2 games in a row, although then he adjusted his state in time and won 2 games in a row to tie the total score. But in the crucial 5th game, Wang Chuqin kept behind, although he chased 9 draws, he still made a mistake and lost two points in a row and lost this game. In the 6th game, Wang Chuqin, who had a collapsed mentality, failed to withstand it, and made frequent mistakes that led to falling behind all the way, and finally lost the 6th game 6-11 and was upset 2-4.
What is embarrassing is that Wang Chuqin won all 7 matches against Moregard before! Before Moregard arrived at the Olympics, he had lost five in a row. But in the end, Wang Chuqin made his opponent turn over and upset in the most critical Olympic Games.
With Wang Chuqin out, the first half of the district was also lost. The heavy responsibility of the national table tennis to win the Olympic table tennis men's singles gold medal is all on Fan Zhendong, and the pressure of "little fat" can be imagined.
