wtt In the men's singles final of the Doha Men's Finals, Wang Chuqin swept Fan Zhendong 11-8, 11-9, 14-12, 11-7 to win the championship.
Fatty may become a regular in men's singles finals for many years to come. If Fan Zhendong has been the number one man in table tennis in the past few years, then Wang Chuqin is his strongest challenger. Wang Chuqin has already tasted the feeling of being number one in the world. , looking forward to securing this position, and Fan Zhendong is the person he must defeat.
In this duel, Wang Chuqin was quite determined from the beginning. In a high-level duel, it was the boss who continued to seize opportunities. After withstanding Fan Zhendong's counterattack in the second game, Wang Chuqin resolved the game point in the third game. After gaining a 3-game advantage, he became unstoppable. Fan Zhendong's morale was low after missing the third game. In the end, he unexpectedly lost 4 games in a row and missed the championship. Wang Chuqin won the finals 4-0, announcing that he will do something big in 2024! It must be admitted that it is not surprising that the first men's singles championship in 2024 belongs to Wang Chuqin, but the way he swept Fan Zhendong 4-0 to win it is really amazing.
We must admit that Fan Zhendong’s eyes are gone. In the past period of time, Fan Zhendong retired from the army and returned to social media. He became less and less obsessed with table tennis. When he went to games in Germany, he quickly watched football live and enjoyed being a fan. On the Internet, also surf with Real Madrid fans. Don't forget that during the Asian Games, Fan Zhendong also went to watch a swimming competition. He really loved sports and was immersed in the world of sports, but his desire for victory in the competitive arena was declining.
Many people say, Fan Zhendong should not become the second Wang Hao! At present, this is possible. Fan Zhendong became famous at the age of 16, and then made rapid progress. Although he was favored at the Tokyo Olympics, he finally lost to Malone in the men's singles final. You can imagine how disappointed Xiaopang was at that time. After years of hard work, he failed to win the Olympic men's singles championship. He was indeed a little tired. Becoming famous early is not necessarily a good thing. Now Fan Zhendong is not very old, but he is already a veteran. The more he plays, the more he plays as he pleases. He has won too many championships and seems to lose his energy at critical moments. Looking at Wang Chuqin's murderous eyes, I really feel that times have changed again.
I really can’t go back. Fan Zhendong enjoys himself very much. Perhaps, at the Paris Olympics, he will not regain the feeling he had during his debut, but will accept any outcome. Maybe it would be good to be a bit more Buddhist?
