Perhaps this is only a preliminary version .... Strictly the first five by rating .... Later they can add .... Deadline December 29 ....
That is team A except Hayata (i remember seeing that she was moved up and Shibata down to team B). I wonder what she has done to offend the association.

Let us wait. I’ve been suspecting something for a while but suspicions only. She is young still. But she may need to follow the Hamamoto route if she wants to play in the Olympics someday

Remember this piece of news? A Japanese netizen inquired Miyazaki on Twitter, and the reply he got...

Totally random observation but the Sayaka Hirano of today is so much more smiley. As a player, I remember she had a textbook RBF or what some would call "blackface".

Takkyu_wa_inochi brought that up first half a year ago. I personally haven't seen any concrete evidence that points to it. It's all conjecture right now.
Even though Miyazaki dismissed that report as "fake news", Hayata did focus on her singles, and stopped playing doubles after WTTC.
If you check out the World Tour Standings for XD, MD and WD, you'd notice their thought pattern.
For XD, it's all right-left pair. Harimoto never paired with Ito likely for that reason.
Same deal for MD except Niwa/Mizutani. They were forced to try this.
WD is the only event with right-right pair and chopper pair. Yet, Hirano never paired with Hayata.
Despite what the folks say on TV and to the media about the importance of winning the doubles and how the 3rd player will be picked based on "doubles/team compatibility" regardless of ranking, by summertime, they already had an idea of the final lineup and "gave up" on other lower-ranked/defensive/wrong-dominant-hand players, as feared by a Japanese blogger.
From the way Yoshimura was put back into the picture for ATTC, TWC and how he was the only Japanese male player at the NA Open, it feels as if they realized "oh, shit. Niwa is gonna *bleep* up our lineups."

Miyazaki's words diverge from deeds ...
In fact, Hayata has not played WD since this spring ....And I doubt that this is her decision ....
The coming tournaments in January-February will show the position of JNT ...Will Hayata be included in the WD, XD ....

Besides of his waist injury, I think Mizutani is in a very bad mood or depression after losing the Olympic single spot.
Anywhere we can watch Japan Top 12 online?
Lion Top 12 Jun Mizutani will not participate ...
