They are all deployed. The men's team is led by the Olympic champion of men's singles and men's team, and the women's team is led by Liu, the main force of China women's team. Qiao Hong, director of the Guangdong Table Tennis Management Center, said that the National Games is the top priority of the Guangdong team this year, and playing well in the preliminaries will help boost morale and lay the foundation for the final. She revealed that the goal of the Guangdong men's and women's teams in the preliminaries is to strive for the team competition and get the best ranking, while in the individual competition, they will strive for more people and more qualifications to compete in the final stage.
Except for the team that won the top four in the men's and women's teams in the national championship last year, all other local teams need to participate in the preliminaries of the National Games to qualify for the final stage. Because the Guangdong men's team and the Guangdong women's team both won 5 to 8 places in the national championship last year, they can get the seed ranking in the preliminary round. The teams listed as the seeds of men's team preliminaries are Beijing Men's Team, Guangdong Men's Team, Sichuan Men's Team and Guangxi Men's Team, and the teams listed as the seeds of women's team preliminaries are Hebei Women's Team, Hubei Women's Team, Guangdong Women's Team and Shanxi Women's Team.
Guangdong men's team has four opponents in the same group in the preliminary round, namely, Zhang, Jin, Lu Yonghui and He. The reason why six players signed up is because Olympic champion Ma Lin did not participate in the competition, and he also directly entered the top 32 men's singles in the National Games. According to the competition rules, any player who wins the top 3 in each individual world competition can advance to the top 32 without participating in the individual preliminaries of the National Games.
There are five teams in the same group as the Guangdong women's team, which means that the team needs to participate in five single round robin matches. Guangdong women's team has five players, namely Liu, Cao, Mai Lele and Cai Sai. After the team competition, Guangdong men's and women's teams also need to participate in the men's singles, women's singles, men's doubles, women's doubles and mixed doubles preliminaries. Huang Haicheng, deputy general manager of Guangdong team, revealed that the strongest opponent of Guangdong men's team in the men's team group match is Liaoning men's team, while the strongest opponent of Guangdong women's team is Jiangsu women's team. As long as you win the top three in the group, you can qualify. In the final contest, a total of 18 teams competed for the championship. In addition to the 16 teams qualifying for the national championship and the preliminary round of the National Games, Hong Kong and Macao were added.
The competition of individual events is more intense. Only by winning the top 24 in the preliminary round can you qualify for the final stage. In the final stage, there will be 32 players in each event. In addition to the top 3 players in the world series, at least the top 24 players in the preliminaries have a chance. According to Huang Haicheng's estimation, there are more than 1 100 players in the men's singles and women's singles preliminaries, calculated by sending 5 players from each team to participate in individual events. "Players from Hong Kong and Macau have participated in individual preliminaries, including Tieyana, Jiang Huajun, Li Jing and advanced masters, which means that it is more difficult for our team to advance to the top 24."
"If they play normally, there is no problem for the Guangdong men's and women's teams to qualify, but our goal is to strive for a better ranking and prepare for the final." Qiao Hong, director of Guangdong Table Tennis Management Center, said. For individual events, she hopes that more players in each individual event will advance to the top 24. "Guangdong team attaches great importance to this preliminaries. At that time, the person in charge of the center, the deputy head coach and the competent coaches of the two teams will all go to Hohhot to ensure that the players participate in the competition in the best condition.
