At that moment on the table tennis court, the audience held their breath. Wang Chuqin, ranked No. 1 in the world, actually lost in the men's team competition of the Asian Table Tennis Championships? Immediately afterwards, Sun Yingsha, the world No. 1 in women's singles, also collapsed. What a surprise! What is it that makes these table tennis superstars suddenly lose their heads?
As the racket waved, sweat flowed. Sun Yingsha's expression became more and more solemn, and her brows were tightly locked. After a narrow win in the first game, she didn't seem to be able to find her rhythm. The second game was defeated 2:11, and the third game was 7:11 and lost again. In the fourth game, Sasha's tactics were fine, but the feeling was wrong, and the ball always seemed to have its own ideas and did not listen to the call. In the end, he lost to North Korean player Kim Qinying 1:3, who would have thought of this result?
"Is it a problem with the new ball? Someone in the stands muttered. Indeed, this game uses a seamless ball, which is erratic and really difficult to master. Looking at the table again, it seems to be a lot shorter. But after thinking about it, which of our national table tennis soldiers didn't come over under difficult conditions? The adaptability is absolutely top notch.
So what's the problem? If you think about it, there are two more critical reasons.
The just-concluded Beijing Grand Slam has made these young players use their power. The hearty games, the thrilling duels, are still vivid. It is reasonable to switch to the Asian Table Tennis Championships so soon, and the state has not been adjusted.
Besides, this seamless ball, everyone really didn't practice much after the Olympics. If you don't fully master the service skills, this is a hard injury. On the other hand, the players from Iran and North Korea may have started targeted training long ago. When you think about it, it's not so surprising to lose.
Although Lin Shidong won, he was also in danger. This player, who is usually as steady as Tarzan, actually played on thin ice this time. It seems that this competition is really not easy.
But then again, losing isn't necessarily a bad thing. Doesn't this just give our national table tennis players a wake-up call? After the fiasco, they must have been more aware of the problem and redoubled their efforts.
I bet that in the next competition, our players will definitely adjust their form and regain their invincible selves. After all, they are the stars of the table tennis world who have been honed in countless setbacks!
By the way, you say, in the next game, will Wang Chuqin and Sun Yingsha be ashamed and show their might? Why don't we make a bet? How about inviting me to a hot pot if I win?
