Below is a translation of the article based on DeepL
On the 25th, the Japan Table Tennis Association announced that Honoka Hashimoto (Denso) and Reina Aso (Hyakujushi Bank) had withdrawn from the national qualifying tournament for the Asian Championships, which is set to begin the following day, the 26th.
Although Hashimoto finished as the singles runner-up and Aso won the doubles title at the WTT Contender Lagos just prior to the event, their return flight was significantly delayed. Both players explained on their Instagram Stories that they were forced to withdraw due to the major flight delay, apologizing to those involved and expressing their determination to continue playing in the future.
On social media, comments such as “I guess the players returning from the Africa tour just couldn’t make it in time” and “The schedule is way too packed” “It’s a shame, but there’s nothing to be done,” “I feel so sorry for them,” “First and foremost, I hope they return home safely,” and “They’re still in their 20s. I hope they take care of themselves so they don’t burn out physically or mentally.”
Imo, it's not a problem for Hashimoto because she will most likely qualify via world ranking.
