Double Harimoto beats China

https://www.jttl.gr.jp/ Long before T-League, there was Japan Table Tennis League with heavy corporate sponsorship. A number T-League women play in JTTL: Seira Ushijima (chopper who beat Honoka at the All Japan), Moe Nomura, Honoka Hashimoto, Saki Shibata, Miku Izumo, Kyoka Idesawa, and Asuka...

It's the same team. Most likely to reduce the time. Imagine 8 mens teams and 8 womens teams all playing at the same time. Saves a lot of time if you can use 2 courts. Team matches are scheduled for 2 hour time slot. There's also more Division 2 matches scheduled in this arena for the next...

Kotomi Omoda (Aichi Institute of Technology) is playing a tight match with Moe Nomura (Denso Polaris and also Kyushu Asteeda in T-League) as I type this. I wonder if Kotomi is trying to making a case for playing in T-League. She's been playing really well recently.

It's teams, but there are multiple teams and even both men and womens teams playing at the same time so they need multiple courts. During the current time period, courts 1-8 are played by 8 Women's teams with each pair of teams taking 2 courts. Same for the men on courts 9-16.

I hope I don't get in trouble with Labo Live for this PSA, but Honoka Hashimoto's team, Denso Polaris, will be playing a league tournament in about 90 minutes from this message. Labo Live will be broadcasting it along with other teams. Her team will be on courts 1 and 2 at 1:50pm Japan Local...

Tough final day of qualification for the European women. A number of household names that have strong games were knocked out by Asian women: Natalia Bajor, Annett Kaufmann, Charlotte Lutz, Adina Diaconu, Margaryta Pesotska, Only Yu Fu of Portugal made it through and it took an 11-9 in the 5th...

Ma Jinbao loves the Star Contenders: 3-2 over Joao Geraldo

Great win for 17 year old Yeh Yi-Tian who beat China's 19 yr old Xu Yi.

https://worldtabletennis.com/eventInfo?eventId=3091 Star Contender Ljubljana kicks off this Tuesday with 2 days of qualification. Top seeds are Hugo Calderano in MS and Miwa Harimoto in WS. Also, this tournament will showcase the first WD pair of Miwa Harimoto and Satsuki Odo. We will also...

Congrats to both Yuan Jia Nan and Benedict Duda. Both of them seeing a resurgence in their careers.

Well, they'll always be the 2024 Asian Championships WD Champions, but the Odo/Yokoi era is over. Looking forward to Japan unleashing the full power of Odo/Harimoto.

Tough week for the NP Mallets. Sato, Yokoi, and Odo all lost earlier than expected. I guess if it's any consolation, they get a little extra rest before next week's Star Contender Ljubljana. Edit: Odo/Yokoi still have doubles, but at least not as taxing as a full schedule.

Looks like the CNT has been working on playing against choppers. After a close first game, SXY took complete command over the next 3 games over Sato.

16 yr old Yuna Ojio beat Natalia Bajor 3-1.

MLTT's Kotomi Omoda took out Sofia Polcanova 3-0. I did not have that on my bingo card.

MLTT's Kotomi Omoda beat China's Yao Ruixuan in a single elimination winner goes to Main Draw match. Yao Ruixuan is 15 yrs old, but she went 3-0 in her group matches.

https://worldtabletennis.com/eventInfo?eventId=3090 As I type this, there is no WTTGlobal YouTube channel, but I'm hoping they will have it up soon. Darko Jorgic and Satsuki Odo headline Men's and Women's Singles. This tournament might also be the last of the Odo/Yokoi WD pairing. Odo will be...
