WTT regular challenge in Tunisia ended. The national table tennis team suffered heavy losses: 9 people participated, and only 3 people advanced to the singles main draw. In particular, the national table tennis men's team has once again been disappointing. Four players, including world champion Yu Ziyang and rising star Lin Shidong, have stopped qualifying, and only Xue Fei has made it to the main draw.
In the Budapest Championship, the four main players of the national table tennis men's team, Ma Long, Liang Jingkun, Lin Gaoyuan, Wang Chuqin, all lost the "foreign war", and the entire army was wiped out and missed the men's singles championship. Especially Lin Gaoyuan, who was 3-0 ahead in the final and had 6 match points when he collapsed and handed the championship to Zhang Benzhi and . He was hit and criticized.
came to the Tunisia Challenge, and the National Table Tennis Team sent a lineup of 11 male and 11 female athletes. Among them, Lin Gaoyuan, Xiang Peng, Yuan Lizen, Liu Dingshuo, Zhou Qihao, Zhao Zihao of the men's team were directly shortlisted for the main competition. The other five players Lin Shidong, Xue Fei, Sun Wen, Xu Yingbin , and Yu Ziyang will compete in the qualifying round.
As a result, Xu Yingbin fell in the second round of qualifying. He lost to the unknown Afanador (Puerto Rico) 1-3; in the third round of qualifying, Lin Shidong was defeated 0-3 by Liao Zhenjue was swept out, and Sun Wen also lost to the famous Japanese player Niwa Takaki 1-3. In the competition among his own players, Xue Fei had the last laugh and eliminated Yu Ziyang 3-1.

As a result, chipper Zhu Sibing suffered a round trip and was eliminated in the first round of qualifying. In the second round of the qualifying round, Shi Xunyao lost to Ye Yitian ( Chinese Taipei ) 1-3.
Only two members of the National Table Tennis Women's Team passed the qualifying test. Among them, Wang Tianyi defeated Lutz (France) 3-1 in the third qualifying round, and Qi Fei narrowly defeated Paranang (Thailand) 3-2.
Just as the main race was about to start, news suddenly came that world champions Chen Xingtong, Qian Tianyi, and Zhou Qihao had withdrawn from the competition, which made people worry about their physical condition. Chen Xingtong retired from the third line, which caused Lin Gaoyuan/Chen Xingtong to withdraw from the mixed doubles, Chen Xingtong/Qian Tianyi to withdraw from the women's doubles, and Lin Gaoyuan/Zhou Qihao also to withdraw from the men's doubles.
Chen Xingtong has had a difficult life over the years, getting further and further away from her main position. She finally had a chance to compete but then retired. Failure to earn points will only make her world ranking lower and have fewer opportunities to compete. Lin Gaoyuan, who was supposed to be fighting on the third front, only had the men's singles competition left. He could prepare for the singles with all his strength, waiting for the opportunity to revenge Harimoto Tomokazu.
