Do you see the strategic value of bringing Hashimoto and Nagasaki rather than Odo now? Hayata just proved at WTT CS Yokohama 2026 that Nakazawa did the right thing securing the 3rd match with Hashimoto at WTTC 2026.

Since her loss to Kaufmann at Paris 2024, Miwa has beaten Annett 3 times each 3-0 since then.

There's 4 spots for XT with Miwa and Hina highly likely to make it. I think any of the 3 (Honoka, Miyu, and Satsuki) could take the remaining 2 spots, and each one brings something different to the table. I'll be happy for whoever makes the team. My only point is that I don't think you should be so dismissive of Satsuki. Not only for her doubles prowess (both WD and XD) as I mentioned in your first link, but she's also won 4 WTT singles titles in the past 12 months.

The upsets in the men's singles bracket are out the wazoo, holy crap!

Maybe a delayed Yokohama effect?

Jonathan Groth vs Lin Yun-Ju had a weird feeling/rhythm until I realized its two lefties and then they adjusted.

Anyone know why Groth got a yellow card near the end?

Did every top player get used to the anti rubber/style of Winter? She has been losing recently.
