One thing that has been bothering me this tournament during the post-match interviews... is the host not Japanese? Because there are always meanings lost from the English to Mandarin (Lady 1), Mandarin to Japanese (Lady 1) and Japanese to English (Lady 2) to and fro translations.

LSW is perhaps the best female doubles player.

Women's Team line-up is out. Again, China is sending their three most on-form players at the moment. They are ABC while Japan is XYZ. LSW/CM vs Ishikawa/Hirano SYS vs Ito LSW vs Hirano SYS vs Ishikawa CM vs Ito

LGY: Oopsie, I guess I'm still the reserve player.

Hirano seems to be in better shape than Ito for Singles?

Lol Deng Yaping shares your view about Ishikawa.

Since DN is seemingly injured and CM not performing as well as her world ranking suggests, we might see China send the winning WTTC2019 champions. SYS+WMY for doubles and LSW as first singles? A bold guess here.

54 minutes for the doubles, looks like a potential 2-3hour SF.

Ishikawa is surprisingly unstable during WD, considering she started XD the earliest (and won the World Championship once) which should have upped her game substantially.

LILY ZHANG IS FANTASTIC! SYS will probably still win in the end but her hastiness will cost her some points.

Well, it's always possible albeit slim considering that China has decided to send its top 3 players against USA. Amy/Lily vs CM/SYS, Wu Yue vs LSW, Lily vs SYS, Wu Yue vs CM and Amy vs LSW.

If Austria wins England 3-0 tomorrow, Japan will be out completely. IS IT TIME FOR A EUROPEAN CONSPIRACY!!

Groups =/= Quarters so Groups A and B do not mean first half (unless I'm wrong?). In the second knock-out stage, winners from Group A and B will be allocated into positions 1 and 8 (i.e. different halves). Japan will only be in the same half as China (assuming they top Group A) if they are not...

The November rankings prove that T2 makes such a whole world of difference. ZYL, WMY and DN are basically clinging onto their positions as 1st, 2nd and 3rd in Malaysia to maintain their top 6 positions.

Kato seems like the most ill-fated person on the women's team – the one who will never be picked no matter what she does.

The invitations were for the top 15. Player number 16 is determined by the host country.

I remember Airi Abe. She almost edged CXT out in Bulgaria Open ~

Honestly I wouldn't read much into what he says.

Lol, but the ZYL today played one of the best I have seen her do. It's not often that LSW doesn't score much on her own serves.
