CNT nicknames may change when players grow senior. Some nicknames are only used by close friends. Also in Chinese culture, some nicknames are impolite for juniors to use to call seniors. It is impolite for juniors to call seniors only by first name (need to add Brother and Sister after first name or last name). While seniors tend to call juniors by nicknames or only by first name.
FZD: Little Fatty or Fatty, LJK: Big Fatty, WCQ: Big Head. These are now frequently used by CNT coaches, CNT players, journalists and media. I bet when they are getting senior, they won't like these nicknames used any more. These nicknames are a little mean.
Being most senior in men's team and team captain, ML is now called Brother Long or Captain Long by younger players, even by coaches sometimes. When he was young, he was called Long Zai (boy). Being second senior, XX is now called Brother Xin while coaches and ML sometimes call him Big Anaconda. Similarly although DN's nickname is Big Baby, LSW's Small Jujube, young players call them Sister Ning, Sister Zao (jujube) instead of nicknames. Journalists and media use Captain Long, Big Anaconda, Captain Ning, Small Jujube
more often.
Being close, ML, YA used to call LGY Sister Lin. One explanation is said that in Chinese "sister" sounds similar to "no eyebrows". Another being that LGY's body weight used to be lighter than women's team. Anyways it is mean and ML, YA now call him by first name.

Ma Long has become the hexagon, soon players are gonna be measured on a scale of 0 to Ma Long
Meanwhile, unlucky draw for Lily Zhang. Although it was hard to find a lucky draw with this many top quality players.

WY 4-1 WYD. Not that she has trouble playing choppers, she doesn't know how to play choppers. A complete eyesore to watch.

Shows how imbalanced some people's games are. A reminder of what it truly means to be higher ranked than another player as Mima Ito would kill Wu Yang.

Women's Main Draw
1st Quarter – DN or ZYL should take this
2nd Quarter – LSW's world?
3rd Quarter – Sucks to be Ishikawa. CNT's strongest new-generation players (WMY, CXT, SYS) & chopper (WY) and her own prodigious junior (Kihara) are all here.
4th Quarter – Tough draw for Ito (CM, GYT, HZJ) but looking forward to CM vs Hina

A tough road to the finals for Mima - China right from the start.
To win she has to beat Gu Yuting > He Zhuojia > Chen Meng > Sun Yingsha/Wang Manyu > Ding Ning/Liu Shiwen

Looking at the men's singles draw it *could* be that Harimoto has to face Chinese players from START to FINISH.
Exciting stuff!

There are Chinese players in almost every bracket in women's single. There is no easy draw.
Even more impressive is that all Chinese women qualified, besides Wang Yidi who lost to her teammate Wu Yang.

Sun Wen was so impressive in Chinese super league this time. Eagerly awaiting for his match with Harimoto.

An Jaehyun vs Ma Long. The match that could've been the final of the WTTC. Should be interesting.
