:o perimenopause derision may be considered pre senior abuse :p but you have a point there, this may be her only/last Olympic chance.

may be re-introduce the separation rule. But then be ready for a main draw first round of 64, given both China & Japan are sending almost 20 each time. ;) Or use the separation rule, but limit each association to 6 players maximum. Still going to be a long tournament though. But the way things...

I don't understand... Why is it NOT random? Other than the first 4 seeds who take each of the quarters, the other players or representatives go up IN PUBLIC VIEW, pick a ball from a bowl, inside of which is a number, which is plugged into the seeding chart. How can they 'monkey' with that...

Hayata at home in Fukuoka on her 19th birthday July 7. (there may be up to another 10 more yrs to watch her grow/advance and play, a very entertaining thought indeed).

After Korea, counting the best 7 results(since Ito only has 7), the usable points for January 2020 are Ito 8505, Hirano 8290, Ishikawa 7540. The point spread between Ito-Ishikawa remains the same since both came off at QF. Ishikawa gained 1 round on Hirano by 180 pts. After Australia, we can...

These two took out CIC-LYJ :p

The 3 CNT qualifiers (Hzj, Qty, Lws) that made it to the main draw are ALL playing against CNT seeds in the first round. :-D 2 of the quarters are entirely of Japanese. Welcome to the Fratricide Open :p

oh boy...DN vs Hzj, Hayata vs LSW, Ishikawa vs Kihara, Hirano vs Lee Hoching, SYS vs QTi, Sato vs Hashimoto... Japan is guaranteed 2 in the quarterfinals.

9 Japanese women made it through to the main draw. Hayata, Ojio, Mori, Nagasaki, Hashimoto, Kihara, Soma, Nakamori, Kato.

On 6/17/19, NHK BS1 released a hr long program on Hayata Hina, paraphrasing her graduation year book’s own quote “Loose NOT to a weak self” as title. This documented Hayata’s trials from All Japan, through her defeat and loosing the WTTC spot to Kato, her high school graduation, to the...

huh?! why some parts of my post appear in gray?

Probably off topic, but got no place to share this, sorry. Japan’s T League has lost ALL it’s Chinese players for the coming season. Nissay lost 2, Kinoshita 1 male 1female. https://www.sponichi.co.jp/sports/news/2019/05/29/kiji/20190529s00026000079000c.html...

In the interest of our discussion in this thread, it is how soon Ishikawa goes down vis a vis Ito & Hirano, doesn’t even matter who/what she looses to. Do not say “poor Hayata”, Hayata MUST NOT avoid the chinese, if she cannot even win over the qualifier to get into the main draw, then she has...

https://youtu.be/QoCUNNeDlnc ZYL talking about Ito after China Op.

Current state of affairs re European Women Podium age 40, 36, 56, 2 penholders and a chopper, all non-caucasians. Where is/who are the next generation? Still, a hurrah for perseverance and dedication to the 3 “seniors”, very inspiring.

T2 Women’s list WMY, CM, LSW, ZYL, DN, ITO, SYS, FTW, CIC, HIRANO, CHEN Szu-yu, DOO, POLCANOVA, SZOCS, ISHIKAWA, KATO. CNT pulled CXT, WYD, HZJ, so Polcanova, Ishikawa, Kato got in, Szocs got the ‘Host Exemption’ for being ‘18 Champ.

Ishikawa & Kato have been officially announced to the world, this cannot be changed. They are going to T2. Only 9 chinese women were in the top 15, GYT was in the tie group with Ishikawa, with Kato directly behind. If Kato is in, then China withdrawn 4, if Han Ying is in, they pulled 5.

zeioは賢い人です - Tempest VC pls read post #140 regarding WC change.

Additional pts in Diamond Malaya WILL HELP Ishikawa to beat Ito for Japan Women's Team Olympic race in January 2020. :mad:
