The score at Tokyo 2020 was -4, -7, -4, -6. Compare that with -9, -10, -7, -7 here at Paris 2024. It was ugly 3 years ago but he had a fighting chance in the first 2 games this time.

The rooms for media do not have A/C. So likely the same for umpires and referees.

MS R16 A. Lebrun (11) 1-4 Calderano (4) (3, -5, -6, -3, -8) Alexis reached his seeding position. Acceptable. Kudos to separation by association. One step away from SF, JWJ next for Calderano? JWJ (8) 4-0 Togami (10) (7, 16, 10, 9) Togami is back to I-prep-for-Harimoto-year-round mode...

WS R32 Meshref 0-4 Hayata (-13, -10, -3, -9) Much tighter than expected.

In the post-match interview, WCQ said it had to do with his poor performance, making too many errors, and brushed the incident away.

As NextLevel noted, they may win a few times initially but after that, the other teams will adapt. Asian Games 2022 Started from R32 R16 Ri Jong Sik/Pyon Song Gyong 1-3 Wong Chun Ting/Doo Hoi Kem (-9, -8, 6, -10) Started from R64 R16 Ham Yu Song/Kim Kum Yong 2-3 Jang Woojin/Jeon Jihee (6, -5...

Lucky him as their government is considering removing the waiver.

France, Monaco and Senegal aren't doing too bad, either. US and Puerto Rico aren't that far behind.
