Although Lin Shidong is young, he is far ahead of his peers and is the key training object.
Lin Shidong is a promising star of table tennis and a younger generation player. Lin Shidong's performance has been remarkable. He once defeated Xu Xin, the main player in the Olympic simulation, and defeated Zhou in the Macau Championship. Even in the face of a player like Lin, Lin Shidong dared to play and created many difficulties. You know, Lin Shidong hasn't made the national team for a long time. In the 2020 National Youth Table Tennis Championship, Lin Shidong played a very high level and showed his talents. He first defeated Xiang Peng in the semi-final, and then defeated Sun Zheng in the final to win the championship.
Lin Shidong still has many highlights in the competition. At the WTT Grand Slam World Table Tennis Championships, Lin Shidong once defeated Xu Xin, exposing a lot of unpopularity and showing his influence. Lin Shidong beat Zhou in Macau and entered the quarter-finals. In the competition, Lin Shidong showed a solid basic skill.
President Liu attaches great importance to Lin Shidong.
There are many talented, talented and capable players in table tennis. More players start from sparring, and some people even have no chance to participate in this level of competition all their lives. It is obvious to all that Lin Shidong has strength and talent. However, this is like a stepping stone. In order to be able to participate in Singapore and directly participate in the race, it still needs the attention of President Liu and the affirmation of his ability. After the official announcement, Lin Shidong also published a thank-you letter on personal social media. In the letter, I thanked President Liu and said that I would work hard and cherish this opportunity.
The new core of the Paris cycle needs to cultivate new people.
There are core players in every stage of table tennis, such as Liu, Kong, "Two Kings and One Horse", ZhangJike and Malone. These athletes have played a decisive role in table tennis competitions in recent years. At present, Fan Zhendong has entered a mature stage, and Wang won the men's singles championship in Macau. "Big Head" is making progress faster than Liang Jingkun and Lin. Zhou, Liu Dingshuo and Fan Zhendong are all of the same age, and they have never won the singles championship in the Open. Among the teenagers after 00, Xu Yingbin, Yuan and Quan Kaiyuan grew very fast.
At present, the distance from Paris is not long, the construction of the men's team echelon is not very good, Xu Xin Malone can still play, Fan Zhendong is carrying the banner of the new generation alone, Wang is still growing, and Lin Liangjingkun is in an unstable state, so he can't play abroad every week. Now a new successor is needed to help Xiao Pang carry the banner, and Lin Shidong is expected to become the next main force of table tennis. After Malone and Xu Xin, men's table tennis lacks fresh blood and needs to speed up the alternation of old and new. Lin Shidong caught up with a good opportunity. If he can hit it at this time and make excellent results, it is not impossible to overtake in the corner.
Lin Shidong and Fan Zhendong are very similar. One is Xiao Pang, and the other is Xiao Pang. Lin Shidong's idol is Fan Zhendong. Both of them like to fight violence with violence, which is very ornamental. Liu is very optimistic about this young teenager. Lin Shidong is the champion of men's singles in the 2020 national championship with solid basic skills. Now he is ready to participate in more competitions, accumulate experience and improve his technical and tactical level. He will be able to do it in the future!
