德国乒乓公开赛:新加坡女队夺冠
  2008年德国公开赛在德国柏林落下帷幕,德国选手波尔和奥地利的刘佳分别在男女单打中夺冠,波兰队和新加坡队则夺取了男子团体和女子团体的冠军。

  女团决赛在新加坡与德国之间进行的,新加坡队派出了北京奥运会的原班阵容,势在必得。新加坡一姐李佳薇状态低迷,首场单打对阵31岁的吴佳多,她在2比1领先后被德国吴佳多逆转,激战五局还是以2比3失利。

  第二场单打,新秀冯天薇3比1击败孙祯琦,随后的双打争夺,德国克里斯汀和孙祯琦给李佳薇与王越古这对强强搭档极大考验,双方激战五个回合,李佳薇/王越古才艰难地以7比11、11比8、11比8、9比11、11比7获胜。第四场单打冯天薇再次登场,冯天薇延续稳健发挥,3比1战胜斯尔贝尔森锁定胜利,力助新加坡赢得最终的冠军。

  在女子单打赛中,新加坡女将先后在16强与复赛中落败,无缘进入最后四强。首号种子李佳薇是在16强赛以2比4不敌前中国籍的意大利球员谭文玲、王越古则是经过7局激战后,以4比3惜败在克罗地亚选手鲍罗斯的拍下。第二种子冯天薇虽然在16强赛以4比0轻取罗马尼亚选手丹尼拉,但却在复赛以3比4不敌德国吴佳多被淘汰。

  我国另两名女将孙蓓蓓和于梦雨却双双以3比4败下阵来,与16强赛无缘。小将沈垲欣则在首轮以0比4不敌对手,成为最早出局的我国女将。

  我国男选手高宁则在男单16强赛以4比1轻取多米尼加选手林聚,不过他在较后举行的8强复赛中却以3比4不敌香港的江天一,无缘进入半决赛。另一名新加坡选手杨子则在男单首圈赛以1比4不敌法国马特尼被淘汰。

ITTF Pro Tour German Open - Gold for Singapore!

The Olympic Silver Medalist captured the Women’s Team title at the Erke German Open in Berlin, overcoming the host nation by three matches to one in the final.

The top seeds justified their exalted position at the top of the draw; Wu Jiaduo gave Germany the perfect start by beating Li Jia Wei in five games; it was yet another fine performance from young lady. She proved to be the thorn in the side of Singapore.

Earlier in the day she had beaten Feng Tianwei, the no.2 seed, at the quarter-final stage of the Women’s Singles event.

However, that was to be the one and only success for Germany.

Feng Tianwei levelled matters with a four games win over Zhenqi Barthel and concluded matters in similar style against Kristin Silbereisen after Li Jia Wei and Wang Yue Gu had won the doubles contest against Zhenqi Barthel and Kristin Silbereisen.

乒超:女乒各项之最
  2008年乒超联赛女子组比赛第一阶段循环赛全部结束,根据各队每名队员在单打和双打中的表现及技术统计情况,评选出了循环赛阶段的各项最佳球员或是最佳球队。

  单打胜率最高奖:张怡宁
  她取得了12胜3负的单打战绩,胜率达到80%,权衡胜率为88.8%,居所有队员的第一位。张怡宁在前几轮比赛中两度失手,但后来她越打越好,终于登上了胜率第一的宝座,不愧为两届奥运会四枚金牌得主。

  双打胜率最高奖:牛剑锋/白杨 文佳/木子
  河北队老将牛剑锋/白杨和八一队新秀文佳/木子都取得了7胜2负的成绩,并列在双打胜率榜的第一位。牛剑锋/白杨多年来一直是国内的优秀双打组合,她们在本次比赛尽管单打成绩不理想,但双打却保持了水平,成为河北队最有把握的一分。

  八一队能晋级四强,很大程度上是因为有文佳/木子这一对高水平的双打组合,她们在八一队单打不占优势的情况下,总是为本队稳稳拿下双打这关键的一分。

  得分王奖:郭跃、郭焱、张怡宁
  三人同样赢得了12盘单打比赛的胜利,为本队拿下了12分,并列成为得分王,不愧为国家队的主力队员。

  连胜奖:郭跃
  郭跃在前五轮比赛中取得了九连胜的优异成绩,并在第六轮对八一队的比赛中先战胜了文佳,从而取得了十连胜,但在随后的比赛中她意外负于曹臻,中止了连胜的脚步。但十连胜的成绩足以创造了本赛季乒超联赛的纪录。

  最佳新秀奖:刘诗雯
  今年17岁的刘诗雯征战乒超联赛已经有四个年头,但从未有特别出彩的表现,但在今年的乒超赛场上她大放异彩,一度取得了10胜1负的佳绩攀上了单打胜率榜的首位,最终以11胜4负列在胜率榜的第五位,尽管广东队最终落入保级组,但刘诗雯的出色表现仍然值得肯定。

  最佳教练奖:戴丽丽
  八一女队今年没有引进外援,靠曹臻带领一批新秀出战,整体实力在各队下游,赛前被视为降级的大热门球队。主教练戴丽丽排兵布阵颇有独到之处,对北京队的比赛中出人意料地派出了小将杨扬,结果爆冷击败张怡宁,从而以3-0击败了北京队。其后该队又爆冷战胜了鲁能队,她根据本队情况重点打造了双打组合文佳/木子,靠曹臻和她们的出色表现击败了各队强手晋级四强。

  最佳排阵奖:北大方正队
  在北大队与广东队的比赛中,北大队派出了怪球手陈晴对付广东队主将刘诗雯,果然大获成功,陈晴击败刘诗雯为本队拿到关键一分,北大队也以3-0击败对手取得了一场关键比赛的胜利。

  大逆转奖:刘诗雯
  在广东对江苏队的第四盘比赛中,双方主将刘诗雯和姚彦相遇,刘诗雯在前两局以0-2落后的情况下连扳两局将比分扳平。第五局比赛姚彦以10-5领先拿到了五个盘点,但刘诗雯并没有放弃,连追七分实现了大逆转,从而为广东队锁定胜局。

  最佳外援奖:李佳薇
  北大队引进了新加坡队的著名选手李佳薇,她也不负众望,发挥出了自己的水平,取得了九胜五负的好成绩,这一外援引进得物有所值。

  失意奖:姜华珺、牛剑锋
  姜华珺素有“张怡宁克星”之称,目前世界排名第八位,大同队引进她目的是为了让她带领年轻队员保级成功,但她在乒超比赛中表现令人失望,最终仅取得了3胜10负的成绩,她的低迷状态是大同队成绩不佳的主因。

  牛剑锋过去曾是中国女队的三号选手,也曾两度为河北女队夺得联赛冠军立下了头功,但在本次比赛中表现令人失望,单打成绩为1胜8负,显然很不理想,也使得河北队深陷保级区。

  黑马奖:杨杨
  八一队小将杨杨在本次乒超比赛中只参加了三场单打比赛,取得了两场比赛的胜利,但这两场比赛却先后战胜了世界名将张怡宁和李佳薇,爆出了本次乒超联赛的最大冷门。

  单打全胜奖:常晨晨、饶静文
  辽宁队的第三单打常晨晨和山西队的第三单打饶静文均取得了单打四战全胜的成绩,尤其是常晨晨,所胜的四盘比赛均为决胜盘,体现了出色的实力和很好的心理素质。

  冰火两重天奖:广东队
  广东队在前六轮比赛中取得了四胜二负的好成绩,一度列在各队的第二位,但她们在后三轮比赛中突然陷入低迷的状态,连负三场最终落入保级组。
9:30 AM
乒超外援胜率:李佳薇64.3%列第一 帖雅娜垫底
  2008年乒超联赛第一阶段的比赛全部结束,在女团的比赛中,5名外援的表现引人关注,分别是新加坡队的李佳薇(北大方正)、冯天薇(鲁能),中国香港两女将姜华珺(大同云冈)、帖雅娜(山西大土河华东理工)以及韩国球手唐娜(辽宁鞍钢)。这些名将来头不小,除唐娜的世界排名在第18名外,其余4将都是在前10位。由于乒乓球是中国的优势项目,乒超联赛当属世界最顶尖的赛事,这些外来“和尚”还是不好念经,除了李佳薇胜率达到了64.3%,其余女将未进及格线。

  李佳薇 效力球队:北大方正 胜率:64.3%
  李佳薇的打法秉承了北京队横拍快攻的特色,技术风格类似当年的国手王燕生和滕毅。她的发球多使用反手位一个带“拱”的迷惑性动作的侧上、侧下旋发球,正手位可以用正胶发半下蹲发球。在国际赛场上,李佳薇一直是中国队的主要强敌,两届奥运会女单四强就是不朽的神话。本赛季,李佳薇加盟北大方正,其表现可圈可点,排名外援榜上第一位。李佳薇在北大方正俱乐部打一号位,由于其他队员实力相对薄弱些,球队的胜负主要就看李佳薇的表现了。由她代表北大方正出战的14次单打比赛中,战绩为9胜5负,胜率高达64.3%。在中国这样高手如云的联赛中取得如此成绩实属不易,尤其是在第二轮中横扫李晓霞可以说是她的最佳战例,其中还包括战胜了李楠、唐娜、牛剑锋、丁宁、曹幸妮、冯亚兰和姜华珺。

  冯天薇 效力球队:鲁能 胜率:40%
  从去年开始,冯天薇才陆续参加各种国际大赛。虽然是初出茅庐的小将,但在比赛中,冯天薇却显示出了良好的状态,特别是接连击败队中的两位主将李佳薇和王越古,更是让新加坡的教练刘国栋看在眼里喜在心里。北京奥运女单1/4决赛与张怡宁苦战五局,中国一姐惊险取胜,此役让冯天薇的身价大涨。本赛季乒超联赛上,冯天薇的表现如出一辙,在第一轮输给贾君后就被鲁能冷藏,接着断断续续几次上场发挥都不是很理想,除了她经验欠缺之外,还有她本身的实力在国内这样高水平的比赛中显得就不那么突出了。5次出场仅收获两场胜利,让该队主教练唐诚连连叹息。

  姜华珺 效力球队:大同云冈 胜率:23.1%
  代表香港的姜华珺和李佳薇一样,都是被俱乐部寄予厚望的外援。姜华珺出生在山东,父亲是个乒乓球教练,她六岁开始练球,1996年进省市队,1998年进国家队。十运会帮助山东队获得女团亚军后,加入中国香港队。2006年连胜张怡宁、郭焱、郭跃摘得科威特公开赛女单冠军,目前世界排名第十位。姜华珺还有一个外号让国人津津乐道,即“张怡宁克星”,04年雅典奥运会至08年北京奥运会之间,张怡宁被其三次横扫,显示出超强的实力。不过今年的乒超联赛上,姜华珺的表现不近如人意。大同云冈·雁北宾馆是一支升班马,俱乐部基本保留了原来打甲级的队员,只引进了姜华珺和小将冯亚兰,目的是希望在姜华珺的带动小将们能拼一番天地。姜华珺单打的战绩是三胜十负,后来俱乐部让她参与双打,一场未胜,俱乐部也是提前几轮就确定加入保级战的球队。


  唐娜 效力球队:辽宁鞍钢 胜率:22.2%
  1981年出生,唐娜出生在中国吉林省长春市,1994年到1998年期间,和王楠、张怡宁等一起都是中国国青队选手。2000年,唐娜到大韩航空队打球。2008年开始代表韩国参加国际比赛,并成为女团主力成员。今年的乒超联赛,唐娜代表辽宁鞍钢出战,成绩并不理想,战绩2胜7负,胜率22.2%。双打方面,唐娜与常晨晨搭挡,战绩4胜5负,胜率比单打高出一倍,但总体而言,与国内球手的实力相差还是比较大。

  帖雅娜 效力球队:山西 胜率:14.3%
  帖雅娜世界排名第9位,今年女乒世界杯上夺得亚军,为中国香港乒乓球女队刷新历史。她擅以右手横握球拍,加入了中国香港队之后,在国际乒联大奖赛上的战绩优秀,于2002年亚运会与张钰合作,取得混双冠军。不过,在乒超联赛上,帖雅娜的成绩并不理想,尽管其效力的山西大土河华东理工以7胜2负的成绩夺得了第一阶段比赛的冠军,但这名新加坡女将并不完美,由她代表出战的6场单打,战绩为2胜4负,双打与刘娟搭挡一次,被白杨/牛剑锋3-0横扫。

乒超女团第九轮:-杨杨爆冷胜李佳薇 八一队3-0完胜北大方正
  有着“童子军”之称的八一队3-0战胜北大方正。而新加坡一姐李佳薇在第一盘比赛中1-3不敌八一队的杨杨,相信给之后北大方正造成了一定的压力。

  经过了前八轮激烈的争夺,辽宁鞍钢、山西大土河华东理工、八一工商银行队均为六胜二负积14分,并列榜首。而北大方正4胜4负与北京时博、广东珠江怡景湾并列第五。由于乒超实行的是胜一场2分,负一场得1分的规则,因此八一队已经拿到了进入争冠组的资格。而此役的失利,北大方正能否脱离保级组,还得看其他场次的比赛结果。

  李佳薇1-3杨杨
  首盘比赛,北大方正的外援新加坡一姐李佳薇迎战八一队的杨杨。值得一提的是,这是杨杨在08赛季的第三场比赛,她曾以3-1力克奥运冠军张怡宁。李佳薇首先进入状态,11-4轻松拿下第一局。但是,杨杨没有再给对手机会,以两个11-9和11-4连得三分,为八一队赢得1分。

  陈晴0-3曹臻
  八一队为了扩大领先优势,派上了己方的主力曹臻,而北大则派上了陈晴。二人在06和07赛季有过三次交手,陈晴3-0不敌曹臻,胜利的天平已经倾向于曹臻。第一局比赛双方打得难舍难分,比分僵持不下。无奈,曹臻技高一筹,以12-10先拔头筹。随后,陈晴没有扭转命运的车轮,以6-11和4-11惨败。这样,八一工商银行2-0领先。

  陈晴/高曦2-3木子/文佳
  双打轮次,木子搭档文佳迎接陈晴/高曦的挑战。木子/文佳这对黄金搭档在本赛季的前八轮比赛中取得了6胜2负,双打排名位列第二。木文二人配合默契,敢打敢拼,以两个11-4先赢两局。随后,陈晴/高曦放下包袱,放手一搏,发起猛烈攻势。这突入起来的进攻给木子/文佳造成不小的麻烦,木文组合先后以7-11和10-12连输两局。关键局中,木子/文佳渐渐找回状态,以11-5取得了胜利。最终,八一工商银行主场3-0横扫北大方正。

李佳薇透露连取两分秘诀 刘伟:这场胜利很重要
  根据乒协的有关规定,排名后四位的球队将进入到保级区,因此北大方正主场迎战大同云冈的比赛对双方都至关重要。由于第一阶段比赛接近尾声,因此各队争夺已达白热化,皆在苦思冥想如何从对手身上觅分。北大方正如果能在最后两轮成功踩踏对手全取胜果,冲出保级区的希望就会大增;而大同云冈则渴望藉上轮胜势乘胜追击,以利在第二阶段保级大战中建立信心。

  对于这场比赛胜利,李佳薇显得很平静,从脸上看不出任何喜色,“今天发挥总的来说还可以,在场上拼劲比较足,即使落后也没有放弃,一分一分在追,脑子比较清楚吧。”李佳薇说到。

  “这场比赛的胜利对我们来说很重要”,北大方正俱乐部总经理刘伟表示,“但是最后的名次和最后的结果还要等到最后一轮打完。”

乒超女团第八轮:李佳薇发威独取两胜 北大方正3-1力克大同
  由李佳薇领衔的北大方正主场迎战姜华珺挂帅的大同云冈,两支患难与共的球队最终经过四盘较量,北大还是笑到最后,3-1力克大同。

  由于第一阶段比赛接近尾声,因此各队争夺已达白热化,皆在苦思冥想如何从对手身上觅分。北大方正如果能在最后两轮成功踩踏对手全取胜果,冲出保级区的希望就会大增;而大同云冈则渴望藉上轮胜势乘胜追击,以利在第二阶段保级大战中建立信心。

  姜华珺3-1陈晴
  陈晴上轮作为奇兵出战已被大同有所顾忌,因此,姜华珺早就有所防范,而自己的打法特点恰巧又正好能破解陈晴的技术特点,在首局比赛中,姜华珺利用自己反手生胶的优势与陈晴的长胶展开激战,先从速度上压制陈晴,迫使其不能自如“倒板”制造急速下旋,11-8、11-6姜华珺率先打了陈晴一个措手不及。

  第三局,姜华珺关键时刻下手犹豫的弊病再次出现,陈晴抓住机会以11-9扳回一局。

  最后一局,姜华珺没有再让上局结果继续复制,11-9战胜“怪球手”陈晴也让自己迎来了久违的胜利。

  冯亚兰0-3李佳薇
  上轮表现出色连拿两分的冯亚兰此轮对阵李佳薇却大失水准,一向以女子技术男性化著称的小将冯亚兰面对“以柔克刚”型打法李佳薇还是没有占到任何便宜,虽然前两局双方比分一直紧咬,但在关键时刻,李佳薇正手抽杀果断出击还是让冯亚兰无所适从,最终李佳薇凭借稳定发挥,始终控制着比赛。李佳薇以11-9、11-9、11-8完胜冯亚兰。

  李晓丹/冯亚兰1-3陈晴/高曦
  陈晴属怪拍打法,而高曦是快攻型选手,两人的打法特色极像当年的世界冠军陈子菏与高军,惟一不同就是高曦使用的是横板,高军属直板快攻突击型队员。

  从第二局开始,陈晴的长胶发威,对攻过程中大同组合也屡次出现回球下网,而北大组合在先负一局情况下再没有给对手可乘之机,以3-1(9-11、12-10、11-8、11-5)锁定双打胜局。

  姜华珺2-3李佳薇
  两位外援在第四盘进行了一场拉锯战。首局李佳薇就气势如虹以11比4拿下,第二局姜华珺用搏杀连连得分,她以11比7迅速扳回一城。第三局两人比分交替增加,关键时刻李佳薇连续进攻得手,她以11比8再胜一局。姜华珺虽然在第四局以11比3扳回,但最终还是李佳薇技高一筹,正手威力得到尽情发挥,在决胜局开始后就一直保持领先,以3-2(4-11、11-7、8-11、11-3、11-9)取胜。

山东奇阵收奇效 主帅摸索乒超规律:双打很重要
  携上轮击败张怡宁领衔的北京时博国际之勇,山东队此轮志在延续胜绩。这从阵容的调整上便可见她们的决心,李晓霞没有被安排在打两个单打轮次,而是担任一场单打、一场双打,前几轮被雪藏的冯天薇则再度披挂上阵。

  “没想到,这么一变阵的效果这么好。”山东鲁能主教练唐诚说道。李晓霞以3-0完胜郭跃,冯天薇以同样的比分击败唐娜,再度出场的李晓霞和彭陆洋配合直落三局战胜唐娜/常晨晨。值得一提的是,这是08赛季进行至今,李晓霞第一次在双打比赛中上阵。“两场单打打得很顺利,几乎没有什么好评论的。我们都是从开局便大比分领先,一直保持到终点。我感觉郭跃今天发挥得不是太好。”

  也许变阵能够收到如此奇效不在唐诚的预计之中,但之所以做出变阵的决定实是出于主教练必胜的信念以及总结前7轮比赛经验的基础上得来的。

  “经过前7轮的比赛,我们感觉双打这场球至关重要。如果李晓霞打两个单打,那么不论是冯天薇或者彭陆洋,打郭跃都比较难。所以还不如让李晓霞和郭跃硬碰硬,然后打一场双打。至于派出冯天薇,主要是因为冯天薇此前对阵唐娜的记录是两战两胜。”

  连续战胜强敌北京和辽宁,唐诚坦言全队的自信心有了很大的提升,“不过,我们必要摆正位置去拼下最后一轮的比赛。”目前,山东队已经跻身前四,只要在最后一轮的比赛中获得胜利,山东队完全有机会进入最后的争冠组。

乒超女团第八轮:郭跃0-3李晓霞遭遇三连败 山东变阵3-0横扫辽宁
  辽宁鞍钢在主场迎来了山东鲁能的挑战。这场比赛对双方来说都很重要,辽宁拿下的话将肯定占据了四强的一个名额,而对于山东来说重要性更大一些,因为山东已经输了三场球,而且是输给了排在前面的八一和同输三场的广东女队,所以要想进四强在第一阶段剩余的两场比赛都不容有失。

  本场比赛的看点除了奥运冠军郭跃和世界冠军李晓霞的强强较量外,双方获胜的另一个重要要素就是第三盘的双打。结果鲁能通过变阵取得了奇效,鞍钢女队对此准备不足以0-3败下阵来,前几轮状态奇佳的郭跃也连续在三场比赛中输了球,看来郭跃应该尽快调整一下状态来迎接下面的比赛。

  郭跃0-3李晓霞
  第一盘,原本以为郭李会在第四盘相遇,然而出人预料的是第一场就是比赛的高潮,两位国家队的中坚力量提前相遇。首局,郭跃显得准备不足,虽然拿下了第一分但后面被李晓霞反超比分,5-11输掉第一局。次局,郭跃仍然没有找到最佳状态,一直处于落后,虽然后面极力追赶,但在关键分上显得有些急躁,8-11输掉了第二局。第三局和第二局一样,小将郭跃仍然开局不利,2-5的时候叫了暂停,重新上场后并没有将比分拉近,最终以5-11输掉第三局。

  唐娜0-3冯天薇
  第二盘是双方外援的较量,在北京奥运会女团半决赛上,代表韩国出战的唐娜就曾输给过代表新加坡的冯天薇。首局,唐娜进入状态显然没有冯天薇更快,很快以4-11输掉。第二局,横板生胶打法的唐娜仍然找不到很好的办法对抗冯天薇的弧圈球,比分一直处于落后,7-11又输掉了第二局。输掉前两局后,唐娜显得信心不足,失误不断增多4-11输掉了第三局。

  唐娜/常晨晨0-3李晓霞/彭陆洋
  双打轮次,唐娜/常晨晨对阵十运会女双冠军李晓霞/彭陆洋,这盘比赛也是辽宁女队是否会扭转局面的关键一战。首局,唐娜/常晨晨拼尽全力,但由于在关键球上处理不当以10-12输掉,第二局双方仍然紧咬比分,唐娜/常晨晨还是在关键比分上不如对方处理的好,9-11又输了一局。第三局,领先两局的李晓霞/彭陆洋信心更加十足,越战越勇,最终以8-11连下三城赢得了比赛的胜利。

乒超女团第八轮:晓霞PK郭跃 怡宁战明日之星
  2008年乒超联赛第八轮比赛将打响,这也是今年联赛的倒数第二轮,重要程度不言而喻。女团比赛本轮将上演两场好戏,目前排在单打胜率榜前四的选手将进行硬碰硬的较量,郭跃在主场迎接国家队双打搭档李晓霞的挑战,“一姐”张怡宁则会赴客场验明90后小花刘诗雯的黑马成色,好戏不容错过。

  辽宁鞍钢VS鲁能潞安集团
  辽宁队目前6胜1负独居积分榜首位,不过她们上一轮刚刚被山西终结了全胜,回到主场,辽宁队一定会全力以赴,拿下这一场,她们甚至有可能提前锁定一个争冠组的名额。郭跃无疑还是全队的关键,与李晓霞的对决,对于二人来说不光涉及俱乐部的成绩,还有国家队中的地位问题。

  郭跃与李晓霞是女乒下一代领军人物的最可能人选,之前似乎是郭跃领先一步,但是奥运之后李晓霞已经连拿了世界杯和中国公开赛的冠军,风头无疑盖过了郭跃。按照两队的阵容和实力分析,郭跃和李晓霞各拿下一场不是难事,无论双打谁胜谁负两人在第四场的相遇已经是在所难免,这场比赛的胜者,很有可能就此决定全队的胜负。对于辽宁队来说至关重要的是她们的双打,否则即使郭跃独得两分,以唐娜近期低迷的状态,恐怕她们也很难获得胜利。

  广东珠江怡景湾VS北京时博国际
  如果说郭跃和李晓霞是同辈人之间的竞争,那么刘诗雯和张怡宁之间则是隔代人的较量。1982年出生的张怡宁比91年的刘诗雯大了将近10岁,这场球是国乒女队“过去”与“未来”较量。

  刘诗雯之前一度占据了乒超女单胜率榜的首位,不过已经有人指出,这些胜利之中并没有对阵国家队最顶尖选手的。刘诗雯在面对郭跃时以0-3完败,与李晓霞没有碰面,只是战胜了郭焱,这一场她就将迎来真正的试金石,如果想攀上国家队的顶峰,张怡宁是必须要过的一道雄关。

  不过这场比赛的发生有一个前提——两队必须打到至少第四场,按照实力的分析张怡宁战胜曹幸妮应该不成问题,但刘诗雯对阵丁宁却没有太大的把握,一旦刘诗雯出什么差错,广东队甚至有被横扫的危险,但一旦打到第五场,她们的胜面就会更大。

  北大方正VS大同云冈
  大同云冈是本赛季最为平民化的一支队伍,她们的战绩也证明了这一点,由于姜华珺发挥不佳,她们只能以1胜6负在积分榜垫底。本轮对正拥有李佳薇的北大方正,大同云冈还是凶多吉少。

  已经成为队内主打的冯亚兰面对李佳薇还是下风球,而陈晴也是一名很有特点的球员,上一轮刚刚爆冷击败了刘诗雯。双打的比拼还是北大队优势,她们的两种双打组合共取得3胜4负的成绩,而大同队则只是1胜5负。综合来看,北大方正主场有望获胜。

  江苏中超电缆VS山西大土河
  山西大土河虽然是一支乒超的新军,但是磨合已经成型,郭焱和帖雅娜的实力有目共睹,饶静文也做出了自己应有的贡献。江苏队虽然主场作战,但是全队的实力却不如对手。姚彦之前在手握4个赛点的情况下被刘诗雯逆转,说明小将的心态还不够稳定,面对郭焱和帖雅娜这种经验丰富之极的老将,年轻的江苏队恐怕凶多吉少。

  八一工商银行VS冀中能源
  从队员的名气来看,可能更多人会看好冀中能源,河北双娇牛剑锋和白杨曾经率队连续两年笑傲乒超。但是时过境迁,随着两人的状态明显下滑,河北队的成绩也惨不忍睹,上一轮正是她们送给了大同云冈本赛季的首场胜利,而自己则跌落到与对手同处积分榜末尾。

  反观八一队,虽然曹臻、文佳、木子都不是什么大牌球员,但是搭配的却很好,球员也冲劲十足。曹臻目前单打7胜5负位列胜率榜前十,而木子和文佳的双打组合更是以6胜1负高居胜率榜首位。可以说双打正是八一队目前5胜2负成绩的最大保证,本轮她们恰好迎来了双打胜率榜排行第二的牛剑锋和白杨,这一场比赛将决定整场比赛的走势,如果八一拿下她们获胜几无悬念,而河北队如果能赢也将迎来获胜的良机。

李佳薇:感谢陈晴开门红 希望后两场比赛都获胜
  在2008年中国乒超联赛女子团体第七轮与广东珠江怡景湾比赛之前,北大方正可以说是情势非常危急。六轮比赛2胜4负排名第八,更关键的是后面还要与广东和八一这样的强队相遇。好在经过两个小时的苦战,主场作战的北大方正笑到了最后,她们以3-0干净利索地战胜了对手。其中担任先锋的陈晴3-1战胜了此前联赛胜率排名第一的刘诗雯,而李佳薇随后出战,也战胜了对手曹幸妮。

  “我觉得我们队今天打得挺棒的,”赛后接受采访的时候李佳薇说,“第一场陈晴就开了一个好头,和刘诗雯这场球她发挥得非常好。接下来我打得也还可以吧。另外第三场双打陈晴和高曦也打得特别棒。”兴奋之余,李佳薇连续用“特别棒”这样的词来形容队友的表现。

  赢得了与广东的比赛之后,北大方正赢得了难得的喘息机会,她们成绩也变成了3胜4负。在下周三的主场比赛中她们将迎战排名最后一位的大同云冈-雁北宾馆队,如果正常发挥的话应该能够赢得胜利。不过此后北大方正就将面对实力不俗的八一工商银行,胜负难以预料。

  “北大跟任何对手比赛都是去拼对方,因为没有特别好打的比赛,”李佳薇在接受采访的时候说,“我们也尽力去打每一场球,希望后面的两场单循环比赛我们都能够取得胜利。”

乒超女团第七轮:李佳薇发威陈晴建功 北大变阵3-0横扫广东
  北大方正女队坐阵主场迎战广东珠江怡景湾队。此前广东队4胜2负排名第二,而北大则是2胜4负排名第8。不过经过两个多小时的奋战,比赛结果多少有些出人意料:在陈晴、李佳薇的帮助下,北大方正连下三盘生擒对手。

  陈晴 3-1 刘诗雯
  广东小将刘诗雯擅长快攻打法,很多教练都叫她“小邓亚萍”,2004年10月进入一队。今年只有17岁的她是国家队重点培养的队员,在乒超联赛上成绩喜人。上赛季刘诗雯代表深圳长园新材出战31次,胜率高达80.99%,排名第四位。本赛季刘诗雯继续保持上佳状态,本轮结束后12战10胜仅次郭跃则凭借自己10胜1负的单打成绩暂时排名女子单打第一位。
而陈晴由于状态一般,在此前的乒超联赛中上场机会并不是很多。

  首局比赛,由于对手实力较弱,刘诗雯思想有些松懈,让陈晴开局以4-1领先对手,不过此后刘诗雯凭借自己凌厉的攻势连续得分,最终11-5先下一城。

  易地再战刘诗雯失误有所增多,陈晴先后以4-1、8-4领先对手,并最终以11-5的相同比分扳回一局。第三局比赛陈晴一度开局占先,不过杀至中局时两人已经战成了5平。在5-6落后的时候刘诗雯叫了一个暂停,此后双方从6平一路战至10平。关键时刻陈晴攻球命中,12-10后来居上。

  第四局比赛双方一度杀得难解难分,两人的比分从2平、5平变成7平、8平。在8-9落后的时候陈晴叫了一个暂停,此后双方再一次战成了10平。最后关头陈晴发球抢攻命中,12-10锁定了胜局,为北大方正取得最关键的一分。

  李佳薇 3-1 曹幸妮
  北大方正外援李佳薇确实货真价实,她以6胜4负的成绩排名球员榜第八位,先后击败了李楠、李晓霞、唐娜、牛剑锋、贾君和丁宁。面对实力明显不如自己的曹幸妮,李佳薇开局并不顺利。首局比赛双方展开激烈争夺,直拍打法的曹幸妮一度7-3领先对手,此后李佳薇充分发挥出自己反手的实力,逐渐缩小了比分差并最终追成9平。这个时候李佳薇叫了一个暂停,此后双方先后战成10平和11平。最终曹幸妮攻球失误,李佳薇13-11赢下首局比赛。

  第二局比赛李佳薇开局占先,一度5-2、7-4领先对手。这个时候曹幸妮叫了一个暂停,不过暂停之后李佳薇仍旧占据明显优势,最终曹幸妮回球滚网出台,李佳薇11-5再下一城。

  第三局比赛曹幸妮转守为攻,利用近台推挡抑制了对方反手生胶技术。双方陷入僵持,在5平之后曹幸妮逐渐占先,最终她攻球命中,11-7扳回一局。


  第四局比赛开局双方交替领先,中局之后李佳薇逐渐占优,最终曹幸妮接发球出台,李佳薇11-9取得了最终的胜利。

  陈晴/高曦 3-1 周芳芳/蔡赛
  周芳芳/蔡赛代表广东队出战六次,胜率50%,陈晴/高曦1胜1负。从双方球员的实力来看,广东队占据上风,但是此战非同一般,北大方正已经两分在手。首局比赛士气更旺的陈晴/高曦一直占据主动,直到终局的时候广东组合才逐渐追赶上来。在10-9领先的时候北大方正队叫了一个暂停。随后高曦正手攻球命中,11-9赢得开门红。

  第二局比赛双方比分一直没有拉开,从1平、3平到8平。此后广东组合连续进攻得手,10-8得到两个局点。不过面对绝境陈晴/高曦不抛弃、不放弃,反而放手一搏,而周芳芳/蔡赛则多少显得有些保守,最终陈晴接发球抢了一板成功,北大组合连得四分后来居上。

  第三局比赛双方几乎拷贝了上一局的进程,在多次平局之后周芳芳/蔡赛10-7拿到三个局点,这次尽管陈晴/高曦连得两分,但是周芳芳/蔡赛这次没有让悲剧重演,最终高曦回球出台,广东组合11-9扳回一局。

  第四局比赛双方开局战成2平,此后比分从6平变成了10平,没有一个组合能够领先对手两分以上。在13-12的时候陈晴攻球命中,陈晴/高曦最终14-12赢得了胜利,北大方正队也以3-0的盘分战胜了广东珠江怡景湾。
