Remember that Yuguan stepped on the snow and traveled clearly, and the cold air was brittle mink fur. The ancient road of the dry forest, the long river drinking horses, this meaning is long.

The main opponents of the four golden flowers of national table tennis are all in the ranks.
The World Cup is divided into two phases. In the first stage, 16 groups will be divided into serpentine groups based on the players' world rankings, ensuring that players from the same association are not placed in the same group. There are 3 players in each group, and the winner of the group will advance to the second stage. The main opponents of women's table tennis, Miu Hirano, Aishka Mukherjee, Yuan Jianan, Ni Xialian, Du Kaiqin and Miyu Kihara are not the top 16 players, Sun Yingsha is the most likely to be upset at this stage, and Chen Meng is the safest, her main opponents are all within the top 16.
In the second stage, the group will be divided by lot, and the players of the same association will not be avoided, the first place in the first group will be in the 1st position, and the first place in the second group will be in the 16th position. Since this World Cup is more beneficial to the national table tennis players, especially the top four players, the second stage of the competition will be more challenging, and the real level will be the key to determining the outcome of the game.
It should be noted that Miyu Hirano has achieved a record of 8 fights and 8 wins in this team World Table Tennis Championships, and Hina Hayada has a record of 8 wins and 7 wins, Sun Yingsha, Chen Meng and Wang Yidi need to be extra careful!
