From the qualification website Scroll to the Qualification system - Table Tennis https://www.olympics.com/ioc/documents/olympic-games/los-angeles-2028-olympic-games It looks to me that they are defining eligible pairs as being from the same NOC. Reposting XD qualification section here...

After Miyuu taking the title at 2025 SC Muscat, it has been pretty rough. She lost to Shibata at 2026 SC Doha. Then lost to Huang Yu-Jie at SC Chennai though it's possible that she bowed out early so she could attend the WTTTC selection trial. But she loses to 17 yr old, Mao Takamori, at the...

Adriana's 2nd round opponent is Satsuki Odo. Don't be surprised if Adriana wins. They played each other in T-League a couple weeks ago and Adriana won 3-0. Satsuki will need to bring her 'A' game.

Prime Adriana Diaz

Congratulations to Sally Moyland for making it to the Main Draw!

It's inevitable with more Chinese and Japanese players playing that other countries will get pushed down the rankings. But Adriana has some impressive wins in '25/'26 including ZYL, CY, WYD, and CIC. And her losses in '25/'26 have come against strong players.

Miyuu Kihara's 1st round opponent is Adriana Diaz. We'll see if it leads to WTT success, but Adriana has recently beaten both Satsuki Odo and Shin Yubin in T-League. Miyuu will be looking to bounce back from her loss to Mao Takamori at the WTTTC selection trial.

Another good win for USA's Sally Moyland over Yashaswini Ghorpade. This sets up a final qualification round match between Sally and Singapore's Chloe Lai.

I'm not aware of the arrangements made by the NP Mallets Team. But as a fellow teammate and the most senior member of NP Mallets, there's a certain amount of trust and Saki is extremely knowledgable as she herself has recently beaten Miyuu Kihara who Mao faced in the quarterfinals. Saki has...

Congratulations to Sally Moyland winning 3-0 over Huang Yu-Jie, the player who beat Miyuu Kihara at the Star Contender Chennai last week.

Shout out to Mao Takamori for having an amazing tournament despite the loss in the finals. Also a shout out to Saki Shibata who posted on X that she decided not to play this tournament due to scheduling and other circumstances. But she coached her young T-League teammate Mao all the way to the...

Rin Mende is Japan's top female junior not named Miwa. She won her first senior tournament recently, 2026 WTT Feeder Cappadocia. Relatively thin frame, but she relies on her beautiful technique and rapid, successive hits to her opponents weak spots to gain the advantage. I especially like her...

Congratulations to Rin Mende securing a spot on the WTTTC team!

Congratulations Mao Takamori and Rin Mende for making the Finals. Too bad there can only be one winner.

Tomo is entitled to his opinion. But T-League is not the only league that has rules like next point wins when it's 10-10. MLTT calls this the Golden Point. I can't imagine how Tomo would react if he had to play the Golden Game. And Tomo has something on the order of 90% win rate in T-League...

Here are the pairings for the knockout stage to take place later today: Women: Miyuu Kihara Mao Takamori Misuzu Takeya Kaho Akae Kokona Muramatsu Rin Mende Yuna Ojio Miyu Nagasaki Men: Yuuma Tanagaki Shunto Iwaida Yuta Tanaka Ryusei Kawakami Yukiya Uda Mikita Tokuda Kazuki Hamada...

Someone posted on X that Hirano, who made the finals in Chennai, was not able to make it back in time for the WTTTC trial and had to cancel.

Quite a number S. Korea/Japan doubles pairs. I know there are a lot of Korean players in T-League. Good to see the collaboration. I'm still hoping to see Joo Sae Hyuk training Honoka for a beast mode footwork and forehand :). Yukiya Uda/Oh Junsung Joo Cheonhui/Satsuki Odo Miyu Nagasaki/Shin...
