JTTA hasn't fielded the pair of Ito-Hayata, it’s most successful WD team, since April’s WTTC. They’re not on the Swedish Op or the German Op either. What’s up ?

Based on the most current outings' observation, any of the first line CNT women can take out Ishikawa, Hirano or Ito. For the 3 of them, it's getting to be a bar-fight. It's not even which CNT they may meet, but amongst themselves, who can out survive the others and by how many rounds. Hit...

Markham has NOT been confirmed yet, and CCTTA sources cannot provide any concrete information either. (and we have missed 2 seat sales already, darn !)

here, for something more fun, Hayata's new L-side/FH 'alternate route' return. https://youtu.be/KJX2a5B-67Y but why is she showing this to the public?

but it's not important what they loose because of shedding of useless past points, but their best 8 they gained in 2019, plus T2 that matters. Besides, WR is useless for ITo, Hirano, Ishikawa in Dec anyway, the only Tournament Grand Final seeding is determined by WT results. But for Hayata, if...

they did, with good results, a while back, gold in German Op 2017, Czech & Bulgaria 2018. but for Hirano-Hayata to happen, Hirano will have to squeeze out Ishikawa, and she’s only leading by 325 pts.

CIC is out. Hirano got her World Cup quarter.

Team is over, status quo still maintained. Ishikawa didn't gain any advantage over Hirano. Singles coming. rule 3.9.3: Continental Games Team and Singles points count as a sum for the singles ranking. CIC didn't play for Taipei-Japan, Hirano gained 180 pts on her.

JTTA didn’t send/fund Hayata, Shiomi or Hashimoto, they went as independents on their own funds garnered from sponsors. Hayata needed the ‘easy’ 1100 pts to boost her WR, with this win she’ll pull up to #6 in the Japan hierarchy next month. otoh, Niwa probably wanted the ‘easy’ win to get him...

Edit - deleted everything came out black/unreadable.:(

The last comment was the flashpoint. Still, I felt CCY position is sound (not playing Team because of time factor, but willing to participate in singles), however he might have overreacted, putting all in a intractable position and difficult for himself to back down now. edit: blurry picture...

Hayata is not on the German Op list! http://www.jtta.or.jp/tournament/tabid/125/rptid/497/Default.aspx cut off is Aug29 for independants.

Bet you didn’t think about today 13 years ago :D

R We agree. This whole dependancy on WR to be the sole criteria will come back to haunt JTTA, as with the early Jan 2020 decision, and public announcement. It’s just too soon, too rigid, and tying their own hands. Also China still dominates and because of the transparent process, JNT becomes...

As far as the “own expense”is concerned , this has been happening most of this year when Hayata fell in WR ranking and was relegated to the Reserves Team. JNT only funds the top 6, plus whoever JOC sends as jr potentials, anybody else can go though, on their own (thru sponsors), if the...

Kinoshita’s coach Liu said”although Ishikawa & Kihara also grew, it is Hayata’s growth that is most impressive” so unfortunate for JNT this year... (this disappeared in the last post:p)
