A request to those who had the opportunity to watch games ....
Can you give a brief assessment of the games of Hayata - Hirano and Hayata - Ito?

Zhang Cheng is to blame for the defeat here. Matsuzaki called TO in G2 when Ito trailed at 6:7. That was a good call as Ito needed that game. Hirano then had match point at 10:8. Zhang Cheng should've called TO at 10:9. He didn't and Ito had all the momentum after that. It was a lost cause to call TO in G4 after Hirano trailed 1-2 in games.

I've seen this too many times, where the coaches are afraid to use the TO early.

After two days of intense matches, the three confirmed names for WTTTC2020 are Ito, Ishikawa and Hirano. Lol, aren't these the people we already know would be going? The winner of the National Championships would likely be Ito and Hirano is likely the third Olympics player so... what next? The final two slots would be chosen by?

Ito/Hayata, Ito/Morizono are the defending WD & XD champions from the last 2 years.

I am happy for Hirano and Hayata ... The game of both impressed me ... It is a pity that there is no recording of the game of Hirano-Hayatа ...
(and it’s a pity that the tournament regulations do not provide for a third place draw) ..

(although on the video of the final game for some time some kind of scoreboard was visible where places on the Top-12 were shown:
1 - Ito
2 - Hirano
3 - Hayata
(no numer ? ) - Ishikawa

(50.20 - 51.00 )

Oops sorry.
Mima is too strong for her teammates. She is in a perfect form to make it 3 in a row next month in the national champs.

I agree, she stands out noticeably ...
As for Hina Hayata in the Top 12 ...She played at her level ..It is a pity that there was no meeting with Ishikawa ....
In 2020, the fate of Hina Hayata is literally in her hands ....
She has certain problems.They were mentioned here earlier ....So far, in my opinion, she confidently holds the third or fourth place in the JNT .....(although formally, according to the ITTF rating, she is the sixth in Japan at the moment ...)

(30)=木下グループ=が「2週間の安静とリハビリが必要」と診断されたことを明かした。

 水谷は欠場したW杯団体戦中の11月6日にも同様の診断を受けていた。それでも、12月中旬のワールドツアー・グランドファイナルまで続いた東京五輪代表選考レースを戦ってきただけに、倉嶋監督も「長い期間、腰の痛みを抱えながらプレーしていた。五輪争いの中で自分のベストなパフォーマンスができない中で試合に行って負けて、相当いろんなストレスもあったと思う」と気遣った。

 グランドファイナル後、重圧から解放されたこともあり、腰も順調に回復。今大会も「仙台の人たちに卓球を見てもらいたい」とギリギリまで出場に向けて調整したが、完治に至らなかったため、19日に欠場を決めた。指揮官も「まずはしっかり治してほしい。それが彼のやるべきことだと思う」と語った。

 また、来年1月6日に発表される団体戦代表の3人目についても言及。以前は「白紙」と語っていたが、「ある程度、心の中では整理はしている。1月6日までしっかり考えたい」と心境を語った。

 伊藤が年内最後の試合を優勝で締めくくった。来年に控える東京五輪金メダルに向け「無敗の女になりたい」と観衆を前に意気込みを語った。“みうみま”対決となった決勝は1ゲームを先取されたが「2ゲーム目からはゾーンに入れた」と4ゲーム連取で快勝した=写真。しばしの休養を経て、来年1月の全日本選手権から始動予定。「来年からも実力を上げて負けない選手になりたい」と先を見据えていた。
