Looks like everyone is going full strength, should be a good tournament!
Based on the provisional schedule, after the group stage is the round of 24. So I'm guessing top 3 from each group goes through with the top scoring team from each group getting a bye in the first round of the knockout stage.Oh man, Japan men's team drew Taiwan in their group. What's the format after the group stages? Do only the winners make it to the knock off stage? If so that's a rough draw for both team.
That's strange, last night I was able to click on each individual country to see their lineup however now it's not letting me do thatIs it just me or can I just see the group draw and not the (provisional) line-ups for each country?
Or am I missing something?
so, it is confirmed.Taiwan
Mens Lin, Chuang, Kao, Huang, Feng
Womens Cheng, Chen, Cheng, Li, Wang
This is the squad the "qualified". Now need to wait to see if any opts out.
There might be a rule tying ranking to some prior result in a prior event.For some reason it feels strange to me that Taiwan's women's team is ranked 4th and S. Korea is ranked 5th. I feel S. Korea should be 4th if not 3rd.
teams world ranking is now different.For some reason it feels strange to me that Taiwan's women's team is ranked 4th and S. Korea is ranked 5th. I feel S. Korea should be 4th if not 3rd.
well, they consider the doubles as "individual" events.Personally, I think that a TEAMS championship should include doubles (the truly team component of TT) in it's format. It's 3 players playing singles matches being cheered on by their compatriots. Oddly enough, the WTTC (non-teams) includes WD, MD, and XD.
Interesting that Qian Tianyi was selected over Chen Xingtong, anyone knows why? Very happy for Qian tho she is one of my favourite female playersChina:
Men's Squad: Fan Zhendong, Wang Chuqin, Ma Long, Liang Jingkun, Lin Gaoyuan
Women's Squad: Sun Yingsha, Wang Yidi, Chen Meng, Wang Manyu, Qian Tianyi
Oh my apologies, I thought it was just released prematurely. I'll edit that commentIt is CXT. That list is just a placeholder, which is why it was removed.
