SYS/WMY will have more challengers in this Olympic cycle from Japan, S. Korea, Romania. Miwa Harimoto has no chance of making singles. Hayata has pretty much claimed one of the Olympic spots. Miu Hirano and Mima Ito are vying for the 2nd spot with Hirano in the lead by 24.5 points in the 2024...

Thanks, apacible. On the Race to the WTT Finals page it mentions "Only the Top 16 singles players and Top 8 doubles at the entry deadline receive a ticket to compete". However, I cannot find when the entry deadline is (WTT needs to do better communicating on website or providing a Prospectus)...

That's fine. It leaves a spot open for a player that wants it. On the men's side, a bit surprising Matsushima is not going. Yuta Tanaka would have also made it interesting.

What a great win for Togami! He started off poorly losing game 1 11-4. And in game 2 down 8-10, he showed mental strength to come back. LSD down 7-8 in game 3 takes a timeout, but Togami dominates the next points to win game 3. His backhand is looking really strong winning a number of points...

$58 USD for Dignics? .... You purchasing stolen goods :ROFLMAO: ?

Nice 3-1 win for Togami over Xu Yingbin.

Joo Cheonhui 3-0 over Liu Weishan. Liu Weishan beat her 3-0 in Lanzhou so quite the turnaround. She is really making a name for herself. More so from her close losses going the distance with SYS and WMY. S. Korea got a good one from China.

The kid is 16 and just took out WR#22.

I agree. Let the top women focus on the WTT Finals.

I think incentivizing the players with ranking points is a reasonable approach. They need to be judicious in allocating points and not go hog wild like they did in the past. I remember a while back, FTW would collect a crazy number of points (something on the order of winning gold at the WC or...

Humble, hard working, and incredibly skilled. How can anyone not like this guy? A true treasure for Taiwan Table Tennis.

With this win, LYJ rightfully jumps back into the top 10 on Tuesday as WR#6 with 1000 pts earned replacing current low of 55 pts for a net gain of 945 pts. He will be followed by Felix who moves up a spot from #8 to #7.

YES YES YES !!!!! LIN YUN(WIN) JU !!!! His full talent on display this tournament!!!!

Lin Yun(Win) Ju is my dark horse pick to win this. Let's go LYJ!!!!

Miss backhand wall WYD on a mission after high profile losses to Hayata and Kihara.

Even the commentator said oooohhh an edge! Definitely an edge that should have gone to LYJ. Fortunately, LYJ won the match despite the missed edge.

The world is getting to see the full talent of LYJ. So happy for him.

I think that's a bit harsh. SYB was up 10-7 in game 3 tied at 1-1. She forced SYS to step up her game. Contrast this with their 5 previous encounters where SYB never won a game.

S. Korea has to be proud of the progress of both their male and female players. Joo was right there with WMY.

Amazing match. A shame either one had to lose. Felix is a superstar, but kudos to LSS for putting up an incredible fight.
