Beijing time on November 13, 2020 Men's Table Tennis World Cup kicked off in Weihai, Shandong, China. The first day was a group competition. After a day of fierce competition, the four groups produced the top two and a total of eight players to advance to the second stage of the knockout round, and the top eight seeded players directly advanced to the top 16. After a lottery, the second stage of the top 16 matches was released.
1/4 District: Fan Zhendong, Zhuang Zhiyuan, Francesca, Lin Yunru
2/4 District: Niwa Koki, Zhang Yuzhen, Zheng Rongzhi, Hugo Calderano
3/4 District: Zhang Benzhihe, Robert Galdos, Huang Zhenting, M. Falke
4/4: Ochalov, Pitchford, Dak Jochik, Malone
Fan Zhendong and Malone are the first and second seeds, and they automatically fall in position 1, 16. Upper and lower half. Zhang Benzhi and the third seed were drawn in the lower half. Judging from the results of the lottery, the level of District 2/4 is relatively average, and there is hope of reaching the quarterfinals. South Korea's Jang Yuzhen said in an interview after the group match today that his goal this time is to reach the quarterfinals. However, Zheng Rongzhi was also drawn in the 2/4 area, which is not lucky. In zone
1/4, Fan Zhendong may meet Lin Yunru in the second round. Lin Yunru, also known as "Xiao Lin", has received much attention from Chinese fans for more than a year. The two met in the semifinals of the World Cup last year and Fan Zhendong won, but Lin Yunru defeated Malone in the bronze medal battle, which also impressed Chinese fans.
3/4 From the perspective of strength, Zhang Benhe should be outstanding. Although he has the World Table Tennis Championship runner-up M. Falke, he does not have sustained and stable strength. Huang Zhenting won three group matches and showed good performance. Huang Zhenting may compete with Zhang Benzhihe for the top four seats.
4/4 Ocharov and Pitchford are both good players. Ocharov has so far won 0 against Malone, but Pitchford once defeated Malone in the first round of the 2018 Bulgaria Open. However, Malone has been in very good shape recently. Normally, it shouldn't be a problem to advance to the semi-finals. The semi-finals are likely to be staged a replica of last year's World Cup, Ma Long VS Zhang Ben Chiwa, I believe Ma Long will be able to defeat it, Yixue's shame of losing last year. The rankings of the
group stage are as follows:
Group A: Huang Zhenting Zheng Rongzhi Pukar Saleh
Group B: Pitchford Zhuang Zhiyuan, Karnike Jaha
Group C: Francis Kayochik Aruna
Group D: Zhang Yuzhengados Gusta There are four players in the Wo Tsuboi
A group, and three players in the other three groups. Huang Zhenting of Group A won three matches and won the first place in the group with a record of all victories. In the first game, Huang Zhenting 4-0 Aisalih, the second game against Jeong Young-sik was more difficult, and finally won 4-2, and the third game was 4-2 Pukar.
