The team competition, which started in August 1, is the main theme of Sino-Japanese confrontation. Only China, Taipei and Sweden can pose a threat to Japan in the second half, so there is little suspense for Japan to challenge China in the final. As for the women's team, the overall strength of China, Taipei, China and Hongkong is inferior to that of the Japanese team. Before the decisive battle against Japan, China will meet the challenges of the Korean team and the Singaporean team.

On July 26th, the first mixed doubles gold medal in Olympic history will be born. Xu Xin and Liu, who undertook the task of winning the first table tennis gold medal for China, won a good lottery. Other powerful groups in this project, such as Lin Yunru/Zheng Yijing from Taipei, China, Li Shangzhu/Tian from Taipei, China, and Shunichi Mizutani/Mikei Ito, are all in the lower half. The news broadcast didn't meet too strong opponents in the first half, and the first round will be against Wang Zhen and Zhang Mo. Both of them are naturalized Canadian players, and there is a big gap in strength. Huang Zhenting/Du's opponents in this half-zone "Xinwen Lianbo" should be careful, because the only opponents they have lost in international competitions are China and Hong Kong.

On the other hand, Malone, the champion of men's singles in Rio Olympic Games, was slightly relaxed in the first half. Before entering the semi-finals, his opponents may be South Korean Zhang Yuzhen and German Ochalov. If all goes well, Fan Zhendong and Zhang Benzhihe are expected to face a fierce battle in the semi-final. This is also the most eye-catching men's singles duel in this Olympic Games. Whether China men's singles can meet in the final and win this gold medal in advance, top seed Fan Zhendong will shoulder the heavy responsibility.

The venue is too small and is still being adjusted.

According to the feedback, the venue is also being adjusted, for example, the referee table is moved back to leave more room for athletes. Players of China Table Tennis Team are also actively adapting to the changes in the venue and striving for the best performance. When Xu Xin mentioned the venue factor, he said: "The advantage of playing the game to the key point of the game is running. We have been looking at the size of the venue, and several sideways balls hit the screen, which was slightly affected. " In mixed doubles, Xu Xin's COSCO Taiwan Province has more advantages. He hopes that the venue will be bigger during the competition, so that he can run more smoothly. "Because men who play mixed doubles all go all out to run, the bigger the venue, the more unrestrained they run."
