Nothing against Jia Nan Yuan, but I'll be rooting for Charlotte Lutz to make the finals or maybe even win it all. There has be one promising youth to take up the mantle for Europe. Right?!

Miwa is the only Japanese woman who is a lock for LA2028 as far as I'm concerned. And I'm glad to see she's starting to manage her schedule better. She skipped SC Doha which was right before the All Japan(unlike ahem, Tomo), and I think(?) she was once on the player's list for SC Chennai but is...

Kihara is also literally playing T-League right now.

My guess would be availability. I know Odo and Yokoi are playing T-League literally right now.

Miyu wins a tight match over Kaho. Kaho has got talent but is lacking experience. She held her own in most of the Miyu power rallies.

Solid win for SYB over Honoka. Tough task for Honoka having to deal with her compatriots, top Chinese, and now S. Korea as she's lost to both Joo Cheonhui and now SYB. She needs a beast mode forehand attack.

Win or lose, Kim Nayeong is looking like she's S. Korea's best women's player.

Han Ying vs. Annett Kaufmann livestream. Han Ying is up 2-1 as I type this: https://www.ettu.tv/live/xyz/1/1086

WS Finals between Rin Mende and Yui Sakuma should be starting in a few minutes. 14 yr old Yui Sakuma beat 19 yr old Yuka Kaneyoshi in an all chopper SF. Yuka was actually leading 2-1,7-7 before the expedite rule was triggered. Yui is naturally more attack oriented than Yuka who is very picky...

Whew! Kaho was in deep, deep trouble with winner advances vs. Li Yu-Jhun down 0-2 and things not looking good in the 3rd. But a good timeout changes her fortunes and she scrapes by -10,-8,10,8,8.

Great win for YYT 3-2 over Manika Batra. She was up 10-8 in the decider, but Manika got it to deuce. Manika had a match point of her own, but YYT held her nerves and secured the win.

Yui Sakuma beat Elena Zaharia 3-0 to reach the SF. She will face Bundesliga superstar, Yuka Kaneyoshi, who beat a strong AIN/Russian player, Vlada Voronina. In the bottom half semi finals, Rin Mende will face AIN/Russian player Valeriia Shcherbatykh.

That is former player now coach, Yuka Minagawa.

Great wins for Miyu Nagasaki and Yukiya Uda beating their Chinese opponents.

Jishan was moving well getting to every ball. Edward played nervous for most of the match, but the roles reversed late in the decider and Edward squeaks by 11-9 in the 7th.

Miku Matsushima takes the U17 title over World Youth Champion U15 Koharu Itagaki at 2026 WTT Youth Contender Tunis. She also beat another strong player, Nina Guo Zheng, in the SF.

I think Honoka can win her group even with Chen Yi as top seed.

Both Yuka Kaneyoshi and fellow chopper, Yui Sakuma who is 14 yr old, go 3-0 in their groups to advance to the Main Draw joining compatriot Rin Mende.
