Great match by Adriana taking down China's last woman standing, Chen Yi 11-4 in the decider. CY couldn't handle Adriana's chop blocks or heavy sidespin loops.

SYB must be thinking Satsuki, you have another gear? Satsuki bullied SYB in G5 after a relatively even match.

Just checked some scores. I thought Sato would do well against KM given that Hashimoto is 2-0 vs. KM, but winning in straight games is a surprise. I'll have what Saki Shibata is having. First beating Miyuu Kihara and now T-League teammate, Sakura Yokoi 3-0. Saki will need to have a meeting...

All Japanese WD Final confirmed ...

Great day for the Japanese women. The only Japanese woman not making it through was Miyuu Kihara, and that's because she was playing a compatriot, Saki Shibata. Two Chinese women were ousted by Japan: Zong Geman by Hitomi Sato and SXY by Sakura Yokoi. But Chen Yi and Kuai Man are through to the...

She also beat SXY at 2025 Contender Almaty

Huge win for Sakura Yokoi 3-2 over SXY !

Great win for Miu Hirano 13-11 in the decider vs. Joo. Miu has had trouble against Korean players so this is a very positive step. She will face winner of DHK vs KNY. Saki Shibata with a huge upset over Miyuu Kihara also winning in the decider.

Tough loss for Sachi Aoki, but congratulations to a very talented Su Tsz Tung of Hong Kong. At only 16 yrs old, Su looks to be the heir apparent to Doo Hoi Kem.

The Harimotos were also no. 1 in their respective age groups at the same time.

Congratulations to the Matsushima family. 12 Year Old Miku has been on a tear winning the U19 in her last 3 tournaments.

It's a team effort, but I have to hand it to Jens Lundqvist. The 46 yr old Swede is leading the Power Rankings with a 12-3 record.

https://www.worldtabletennis.com/eventInfo?eventId=3232 Fresh off of Champions Doha, Star Contender Doha starts Tuesday with 2 days of qualifiers. Main draw starts Thursday with LSD and KM as top seeds.

Portland Paddlers sweeping without Kang Dong Soo no less. Kou Lei played pretty well for LA. Min Hyeok Kim could not effectively return his reverse pendulum to the forehand.

Why put down Sabine's game? She's exceeded everyone's expectations including yours, or have the goal posts moved? I mean come on... she got to TOP 20 in the world which includes a win over Chen Xingtong at the 2025 European Smash. Miyu Nagasaki is a very strong player. No shame in losing to her.
