According to the information at JTTA, this will be the first time the individual and team editions are held separately. ATTC 2024 is the individual edition. Seeded players will likely start on the 2nd or 3rd day.

Szocs 1-3 Ito (-10, 7, -11, -12)

Before wasting any of my time, here are the comments from SYB and coach 추교성 on 2-3 GER at Tokyo 2020.
