乒乓世錦賽｜王楚欽吐氣揚眉首奪三大賽單打冠軍 「想證明自己」 (Table Tennis World Championships | Wang Chuqin wins singles title of three major tournaments for the first time, "I wanted to prove myself")

首次贏得三大賽（奧運、世錦賽及世界盃）單打冠軍，吐氣揚眉，王楚欽賽後說：「雨果（卡達雲奴）最近的狀態和勢頭都很好，自己當下風球去打，自己一直在被詬病，包括自己對自己質疑，是因為三大賽的成績不好，自己心裏憋了一股勁，想去證明自己，作為左手也好，作為國乒運動員也好，在大家質疑男隊的時候，想為男隊出一口氣。」
背負全國期望，從世界盃失手到世錦賽封王，25歲的王楚欽表示當中國乒乓球隊領軍人物並不簡單，他說：「現在每場球都感覺如履薄冰，非常艱難，也因此才懂得龍哥（馬龍）、東哥（樊振東）他們那會兒有多麼不容易。隨着年齡增長，自己也逐漸感覺到，其實這個重擔不是誰都能扛起來的。」
After winning the singles title of the three major tournaments (Olympics, World Championships and World Cup) for the first time, Wang Chuqin said: "Hugo (Calderano) has been in good shape and momentum recently. I played as if being the underdog.
I have been constantly criticized, and even I doubted myself, because my results in the three majors were not good. I was chock-full of drive and wanted to prove myself. As a left-handed player and a national table tennis player, I wanted to speak up for the men's team when everyone was questioning us."
Carrying the expectations of the whole country, from failing in the World Cup to winning the World Championships, the 25-year-old Wang Chuqin said that being the leader of the Chinese table tennis team is not easy. He said: "
Now every match feels like walking on thin ice, it is very difficult. That's why I understand how difficult it was for Brother Long (Ma Long) and Brother Dong (Fan Zhendong) at that time. As I get older, I gradually feel that this burden is not something that anyone can bear."

乒乓世錦賽｜王楚欽逆境反勝入男單八強 教練王皓妙手改變戰局 (Table Tennis World Championships | Wang Chuqin wins against all odds and advances into the men's singles quarterfinals; coach Wang Hao changes the game)

「一開始太緊張，感覺打得太糾結、太保守，一直在他的節奏下。」王楚欽承認頭兩局表現未如理想，太手緊，他說：「也不是犯很多錯誤，我覺得有很多是保守，然後不堅決、猶疑、這種不敢出手的心理吧。」
今場的勝負關鍵肯定是第二局後，王楚欽隨王皓去換衫。王楚欽說：「非常感謝王皓指導想的這個辦法，因為自己之前並沒有這個經歷，也是我們世界盃後討論出來、想出來的一些辦法，我覺得效果非常好。」
他認為那一刻離開一下賽場，改變了心理狀態，忘記輸贏，他續說：「換了件短袖以後，我覺得脫離了一下比賽的氛圍，一下子可能腦子也就清醒了一些，心裏面可能乾淨了一些。儘管以0：2落後，也不再去想一些輸贏。我覺得再不去發揮出來自己的水準，可能真的就走了。」

加斯上圈以4：2擊敗另一位中國球手林高遠，但今場負於王楚欽，未能晉級八強。他亦表示，頭兩局的王楚欽與之後4局的王楚欽判若兩人，他說：「前兩局王楚欽沒有發揮出最好的水準，而我打出了自己最高的水準。但當他找回了自己，我就很難對付他的力量和速度。我能打出這樣的水準已經很不容易了。」
"I was too nervous at the beginning. I felt that I played too entangled and too conservatively. I was always under his rhythm." Wang Chuqin admitted that his performance in the first two games was not as good as expected because he was too nervous. He said: "I didn't make many mistakes. I think a lot of them were conservative, and I was not determined, hesitant, and I didn't dare to make a move."
The key to victory in this match will definitely be after the second game, when Wang Chuqin followed Wang Hao to change clothes. Wang Chuqin said: "I am very grateful to Coach Wang Hao for coming up with this idea, because I have never had this experience before. It is also something we discussed and came up with after the World Cup. I think the effect is very good."
He believes that leaving the court at that moment changed his mental state and made him forget about winning or losing. He continued, "After changing into a short-sleeved shirt, I felt that I was away from the atmosphere of the game. Suddenly, my mind may have become clearer and my heart may have become clearer. Even though I was behind 0:2, I no longer thought about winning or losing. I felt that if I didn't perform at my best, I might really be gone."

Gass defeated another Chinese player Lin Gaoyuan 4:2 in the last round, but lost to Wang Chuqin in this game and failed to advance to the quarterfinals. He also said that Wang Chuqin in the first two games was like two different people from Wang Chuqin in the next four games. He said: "Wang Chuqin did not play at his best level in the first two games, and I played at my highest level. But when he found himself, it was difficult for me to deal with his power and speed. It was not easy for me to play at this level."
