在北京时间8月13日晚举行的WTT瑞典大满贯焦点战中，国乒唯一一对男双组合林诗栋/温瑞博以0比3脆败于法国勒布伦兄弟。由于个人积分优势，他俩成为赛会头号男双，却无缘四强，显然这个成绩无法令看官们满意。

B | 在一个月后的名古屋亚运会上，林诗栋/温瑞博将为国而战，这不由令人担忧。林诗栋/温瑞博0比3不敌法国组合勒布伦兄弟，止步八强本站比赛是这对国乒男双组合在亚运会前最后一次赛场练兵。前一日，他们苦战五局险胜瑞典组合卡尔森/卡尔伯格晋级八强，但接着面对配合默契的勒布伦兄弟，国乒组合几乎没有还手之力，仅耗时23分钟就以9比11、7比11、6比11脆败。这场失利引发网友热议，球迷们“不理解”和“不明白”国乒为什么选择他俩出战亚运会。

C | 其实，这只是林诗栋和温瑞博第二次搭档站上国际赛场，此前一次就要追溯至2023年世界青年乒乓球锦标赛上，他俩一举登顶男双赛场。    "The 38% of US adults who say they are 'extremely proud' to be American is the lowest in Gallup's trend, which began in 2001," the pollster said in a press release accompanying the survey.,The result marks the historical low for "extremely proud" by 4 points, but is well below the average of 55%, the release added.,The poll also found 27% of Americans are "very proud," 22% moderately, 9% only a little, and 4% not at all.,The highest readings followed the 9/11 terrorist attacks, when America was awash in patriotism, Gallup said. But researchers note that extreme national pride in the US has been trending downward since 2015.,In terms of partisan breakdown, the pollsters found record-low national pride among Republicans and independents, with Republicans' extreme national pride currently at its lowest point in the trend at 58 percent.,Likewise, independents' extreme pride, which stands at 34 percent, is also the lowest on record for this category. And all three major party groups show double-digit declines in pride versus 2013, with Democrats' 30-point decline the largest.,The current 32-point gap in Democratic versus Republican pride is larger than the historical average though smaller than the record-high 54-point gap in 2019, according to the release.,All groups have become less inclined to say they are proud of their country in recent years, potentially due to deepening political divisions, gridlock in Washington, racial tensions, COVID-19, and inflation, Gallup concluded.。今年6月，亚运会名单公布，这对组合意外出现在两对亚运男双之列。此后他们出战了7月在长沙举行的全锦赛双打比赛，不敌广东队的林高远/袁烜松止步八强；另一对亚运男双黄友政/向鹏成绩稍好，在决赛中不敌马龙/许昕屈居全锦赛亚军。在亚运会名单公布之时，总教练秦志戬表示：“在男双和女双项目上，球队综合考虑夺金牌和谋长远的双重目标，希望借助亚运会平台对新的双打组合开展实战演练。”而林诗栋和温瑞博作为国乒男队内单打排名前三的选手，被教练组予以了用大赛磨合双打的机会。林诗栋、温瑞博在国乒男队内单打排名前三此前，林诗栋更长时间与同龄队友黄友政磨合男双。这对“一左一右”的搭档自去年美国大满贯起频繁配对，除了在马斯喀特常规挑战赛上唯一一次登顶之外，他俩多次打进决赛，这一年来已经获得了五个男双亚军（去年瑞典大满贯、今年新加坡大满贯、太原常规挑战赛、萨格热布常规挑战赛、美国大满贯），不得不说林诗栋/黄友政这对组合也存在一定瓶颈。如今将他俩拆队是一次新的尝试，但尝试也需要付出一定代价，而这学费国乒还是交得起的。
