From what I understand per the prospectus, it has to do with quota. Guangdong can potentially gain an extra entry by entering LGY/LSW for qualification. http://www.sport.gov.cn/n316/n336/c980768/part/630382.pdf http://www.sport.gov.cn/n316/n336/c980768/content.html

Zheng Jiaqi: "They're very afraid of LYJ's shots!" 🤣 https://www.cna.com.tw/news/firstnews/202103135008.aspx Unexpectedly, at the start of today’s game, the "Golden Mixed Doubles" played a bit passively. The first game was abandoned 10-12, and the second game was 3-6 behind. The Taiwanese pair...

Just how divided is Japan over Tokyo 2020? Yomiuri, 1 of 5 Japanese national newspapers, claims that no overseas spectators will be accepted, yet the IOC statement says otherwise. Roughly 900,000 overseas tickets have been sold, which would translate to roughly 90 billion yen of loss if they...

A few points to add now that both the Contender and Star Contender have come to an end. The best-of-5 format for the singles(excluding the semi and final) and mixed doubles, coupled with the light schedule(1 match only per event on a given day) make it hard to draw concrete clues from those...

Deceiving score for Ito. FTW played well, had a game point(10:9) in G2, and was leading 5:2 in G5 but her flow got disrupted by the umpire's serve warning.

LYJ made tons of errors but woke up after the TO in G2. OTOH, LSS blacked out (once again after WTTC 2019 and ATTC 2019). Everything was going so well for them. JJH: WTH, ajeossi(instead of oppa)? LSS: Blame it on me!

KNT: 2 down, 1 to go.

JNT: Gold medal in WT! 🤥 KNT: 😂 CNT: 🤣 What a *bleep* joke! A repeat of the Team World Cup 2019, ONLY WORSE. Hirano did well in G2 to seize the opening after the yellow card for JJH/SYB and turned it around from 7:9 to 10:9, only to have sempai fail and pop up JJH's no-spin serve. In G3, how...

Rosskopf: You call yourself a chopper?

JNT: 2 games again! 😇 JNT: 🤔

避得一時，唔避得一世 What goes around, comes around. And double payback. 5:1 in the 5th and 5:0 in the 6th. The difference here is Harimoto beat him in addition to Ovtcharov beating himself. Another example is Ovtcharov vs Szocs at WTTC 2017 and then Niwa in the next round.

Robles and Oikawa played well, carrying their own teammates. Robles in particular kept finding a way out when down 2:6 in the 4th, while Ionescu were fuming. Uda's inexperience showed when he eased up after that, a fatal mistake the WTTC 2019 doubles runner-up didn't let pass.
