Ultimate variable thrown in - jersey change. Goes either way.
It almost didn't work. It seemed like 4 match points not seized. But now the match has flipped but Wang can still come back given she did it from 7-1 already....

WMY finally remembered she still had a TO in G6.
She actually wanted to call TO on her 2nd match point (?) in G5 but the coach didn't agree.

Oh really? Didn't see that. I guess provincial coaches are still more conservative.

SYS falls to the same opponent twice for both events. CM twice during Olympics. WMY twice during National Games. They are destined to prevent each other from achieving grand slam.

牢莎奥运全运加起来4亚了…… (Lao Sha has won 4 silver medals in total at the Olympics and National Games...)
https://tieba.baidu.com/p/10219169478
空庭晚来风 奥运会和全运会都是四年一届的大赛,牢莎参加了4次,全都进了决赛,足见还是很有实力,结果居然一个都没拿到那么问题出在了哪里?

(Both the Olympics and the National Games are major competitions held every four years. Lao Sha participated 4 times and made it to the final each time, which shows that she is very capable. So why didn't she win any of them?)
空庭晚来风 另外牢鱼最后两局的追分也太燃了吧

(Also, Lao Yu's comeback in the last two games was so fervid!)

奥运连亚,全运连亚,亚运还是在梦鱼没去的情况下拿的 (Consecutive silver medals at the Olympics and the National Games, and she won the Asian Games without Meng/Yu participating)

So for all the choking experts out there, did Sun Yingsha choke?
Commentating for ViuTV, former HKG player and now lawyer 趙頌熙/Chiu Chung Hei didn't explicitly use the word choke but did point out SYS is not as consistent in quadrennial majors like the Olympic Games and now the National Games.

Not so much conservatism, there is no guarantee the timeout would have worked then and he probably felt Wang Manyu was in control and didn't want Sun to have a chance to mentally steady herself.

Has absolutely nothing to do with the level of the opponent. Brilliant commentary.

Wang Hao 🤝 Sun Yingsha

LA28 not looking too good for SYS if WMY performs like this at the Olympics.
Well Sun Yingsha now has the traditional physics problem (the Chuang Hi Yuan/Kanak Jha problem) to solve. When your opponents are physically stronger than you and therefore have naturally more powerful strokes than you do and you don't have a massive edge in serve and return and speed, how do you win the match?

4 years is a long time and she can get lucky but the stable features are currently not in her favor unless she can fix one of the deficits somehow. The main thing that works in SYS's favor is that so far, Wang Manyu has been injury prone. But maybe that has been sufficiently addressed. Time will tell...
