I don't think their will be a flag if Abraamian wins. Interesting though that ITTF allows it, but it's nowhere to be seen at this tournament. https://www.ittf.com/2026/07/13/ittf-executive-board-confirms-reinstatement-of-athletes-with-russian-passports/

I'm in the USA and seeing $119. Maybe you left your VPN on pointed to Canada?

Szocs vs. Mittelham still to come, but I've been impressed with the WS semi-finalists so far: Pavade, Kaufmann, Abraamian. There's no clear favorite that I can tell. Anyone can win it.

Kaufmann showing the CNT how it's done... 4-0 over Han Ying. Impressive.

Huge win for Anna Hursey over European stalwart, Sofia Polcanova. She was able to exploit wide angles forcing Sofia out of her comfort zone. It went late into the decider, and Anna was able to keep her nerves in check.

I know it's just one match, but wow, if Borgar Haug can play like this consistently, he would shoot up the WTT rankings.

Since the All Japan and WTT Champions Asia are taking place at the same time, the JTTA is expecting top players will choose WTT Champions due to it directly affecting Olympic selection. Because of that, the JTTA has made a small change in the selection for the 2027 World TT Championships...

Pavade pulls it off on her 3rd matchpoint to beat Sabine 4-2! This should be a huge confidence boost for her as she's been falling down in the rankings.

Great start for Pavade against Winter... up 2-0 now.

Elizabet Abraamian crushes Yuan Jia Nan 4-0.

Yes, it's the full set of singles, doubles, XD, and team events.

Miwa/Hina pairing up in WD as expected. Odo/Nagasaki the other pair.... poor Honoka. Miwa/Sora and Hina/Togami in XD.

Evergreen Ni Xia Lian takes out Margaryta Pesotska in the decider PESOTSKA M. UKR 6 11 8 7 11 11 9 3 NI X. L. LUX 11 7 11 11 7 6 11 4

Japan National Team members updated. Hitomi is in. Mima is out. Men keep the same players, but the ordering has changed... Sora now #1. Shinozuka now #4.

In a local club play no one cares that much, but in a pro tournament, it's up to the umpire to determine how much of a disturbance was created. There was such a situation at match point fro Christina Kallberg in a match between Zhou Jingyi and Christina Kallberg.

I don't doubt it was an honest mistake. But even with honest mistakes, the offender has to suffer the penalty. Fortunately, for them, there currently is no penalty imposed by the WTT. But for the sake of the game, I think this should change. Whether honest mistake or malicious intent, this...

I wonder what LYJ's reaction is to all of this. His own agent accused Matsushima of using dirty tactics, when in fact it was his own teammates that caused the issue.

Yeah, it's definitely a bad look and would have been even worse had Matsushima lost. If it were up to me, I would ban them from being in the stands in the future. Additionally, anyone in the Chinese media as well as LYJ's agent, who falsely accused Matsushima of making it up to gain an...

I am glad the CTTTA apologized. But, those players should have known better than to use flash given that it's been a known problem at a number of tournaments. Do a test recording to make sure before you record the real thing.

Video evidence backing Sora's flash claim: https://x.com/muskdashu/status/2110013742138400830
