CTTA annouced policy for player selection for tournaments in 2018.
http://www.ctta.cn/xhgg/ssxg/2018/0105/164682.html
The description is unclear/non-specific and can be interpreted differently. Hopefully CTTA or CNT will make some clarifications.

The most controversial part is the selection for Team World Cup and WTTTC lineup. Here are the 5 spots.
1. One singles medalist of 2017 WTTC/World Cup (ML/FZD/XX; DN/ZYL/LSW)
2. One singles medalist of 2017 China National Games (ML/FZD/WCQ; DN/LSW/ZYL)
3. One of the top 3 ranked player in trials
4. One of the top 3 ranked player in CTTSL 2017-2018 season who is not a CNT player (if all the top 3 ranked player in CTSSL are CNT players, the spot will be determined by trials or CNT evaluation)
5. One with high CTTA U21 ranking
According to 5, there will be a U21 player in Team World Cup and WTTTC lineup. However, the CTTA U21 ranking is not released and there is no specifics of how high the ranking should be.
According to 4, the ranking in CTTSL seems important. However, it is almost impossible for a provincial team player to be ranked top 3 in CTTSL. So basically this spot is determined by trials or evaluation.
For ITTF World Tour events (Plat and regular), only 6 players will play senior tour events and 4 for U21 tour events.
1. CTTA ranking top 30
2. CTTA U21 ranking top 20
3. Top 8 penholder/chopper/left-handed/pimples players among CTTA ranking top 40
4. top 5 of trials
The players will be selected based on the need for ranking, standing points, etc.
Incentive: Winner of an ITTF tour event will get qualified for the next tour event.
Penaty: A player who fails in qualification of an ITTF tour event or loses to a non-CNT player in the first round of main draw will be removed from the next tour event.
CTTA said they will release their internal ranking regularly. The details of the internal ranking and trials are not explained.
How do you feel like CTTA new policy? Do you think we will see more CNT players play internationally in 2018?
