Beijing time On September 28, Beijing time, bad news came again in the table tennis world - after Bol , Ocharov, Francesca, Ninoha Kohi and other famous players, the 21-year-old Chinese Taipei team's genius star Lin Yunru also officially withdrew from the Chengdu World Table Tennis Championships, and there was only one day left before the game started. The specific reason is not clear yet, which is really unexpected!
With Lin Yunju's withdrawal, 41-year-old world champion veteran Zhuang Zhiyuan will once again take on the heavy responsibility and become the team's number one main force. However, at this time, the strength of the Chinese Taipei team has fallen sharply, and this time it is estimated that they can only "maintain eight and compete for four".
Born in 2001, Lin Yunru is a strong opponent of the national table tennis team. He has defeated world-class experts such as Ma Long , Fan Zhendong , Wang Chuqin , Lin Gaoyuan , Zhang Benzhi and , and won the third place in the World Cup men's singles and the third place in the Olympic mixed doubles. He has very strong strength and has been in good shape recently. He has defeated Chinese and foreign experts many times in international competitions and won good rankings such as championships.
According to the latest world ranking, Lin Yunru ranked 7th in men's singles, and his teammate Zhuang Zhiyuan has also been in great shape recently, defeating Liang Jingkun and others. Therefore, everyone is optimistic that the Chinese Taipei team can achieve good results in of the World Table Tennis Championships, but Lin Yunru withdrew from the competition.
It is reported that on September 27, someone noticed that Lin Yunru was not present in the Chengdu Arena. Not long afterwards, his name was not found in the list of athletes of the Chinese Taipei team officially announced by the ITTF . At that time, many fans thought it was a technical failure, so they didn't take it seriously.
However, just when the lottery ceremony was held on September 28, the host who participated in the front-line live broadcast officially confirmed the news that Lin Yunru had withdrawn from the competition, but he did not know the specific reason, which immediately aroused the close attention of fans.
Before this, Lin Yunru was once misdiagnosed as positive for the new crown, but was later ruled out during the re-examination. Now that he suddenly missed such a major game, no one would doubt: Will he really be "hit" this time?
As mentioned earlier, many strong opponents of the Chinese table tennis team have announced their withdrawal from the World Table Tennis Championships, and now Lin Yunju is following closely behind, which has also reduced the pressure on the Chinese team to win the championship. So why did he leave? Can the Chinese Taipei team achieve good results under the leadership of Zhuang Zhiyuan? Everything is still unknown, so let’s wait and see!
