Goodness, look at Hayata at Narita after Frankfurt. She looked so worn out, what is she doing at Muscat? (btw hello, it's been a while)

From Hayata's IG after Frankfurt win: Thank you to everyone who came to support us despite the time difference! I was very happy to win my first WTT title since returning from injury, and at the same time, I felt like all the time I spent facing up to myself was finally rewarded. Even though...

Hayata lost all her strength in the final game. “After my play-arm injury at Paris, I’ve been working towards recovery. In this tournament although there were instances where I applied what I acquired during recovery, it wasn’t complete or enough, and my deficiencies were all in tactical...

KURASHIMA Yosuke‘s comment on the Hayata-Harimoto Final. (JNT men’s coach) “….There are very few women in this world who can play this way, except Chinese players. This is a spectacular comeback from injury.”

KURASHIMA Yosuke‘s take on the Hayata-Odo match. “ ….although Hayata may still be affected by her injuries, her skilful tactics and decisive attacks at critical junctures, still displayed superior strength and command admiration.”

Hayata may withdraw from the next round because of arm issues.

Possible…in the Bambi Division maybe 🤣

Sato had tried other combinations, before high school graduation in 2016 and joining mikihouse. Here she was with Hayata (15) in WD Final at 2015 Korea Open. An interesting combo, lefty-righty, attack-defence. Was 0-2 up against Ito-Hirano, 2 right handed attackers, but lost in the decider 9-11.

I wear progressive lens regularly except when I play, I switch to a pair of single focal. This avoids the ‘tunnel vision’ of progressives. Choose a frame with larger lens area so catching a close ball with the corner of your eyes will not be a problem. Avoid metal frames, the arms could bend...

There were indications (plus her IG posts) that it happened during the match with the PRK player. That she laboured on (further aggravated the injury) with SYS and SYB, and actually took a Bronze make it even more memorable and meaningful. Her journey to Paris took longer than her peers, but she...

Hayata’s T-League affiliation terminated (for now). “○ Cancellation of player registration As for Hayata Hina, she is currently concentrating on treating her injury and has no plans to play in the T League for the time being. In order to provide playing opportunities for young players, we have...

😆just watched the WT presentation ceremony. The Chinese women as they turned to step down, without exception, took off their silver medals before even leaving the podium. Is this the worst showing of CNT girls since the Moscow Debacle?
