JTTA: Selection System to be Revamped for Paris 2024

[NextLevel]

I suspect the reason Matsushima is not in Lima is that the crazy rules restricting entries are back in effect. Good luck getting to LA 2028, Sora!

The field for LA 2028 will be far more contested. It's still early to tell how competitive it will be, but there are at least 5 more up-and-coming players besides Harimoto.

Continuing from where I left off (11/12/2022 at 3:52am):
Hirano (2000/4/14)
Hayata (2000/7/7)
Ito (2000/10/21)

Nagasaki (2002/6/15)
Yokoi (2004/4/23)
Odo (2004/5/16)
Kihara (2004/8/3)

AOKI Sachi (2007/4/10)
MENDE Rin (2007/12/31)
TAKEYA Misuzu (2008/4/17)
TAKAMORI Mao (2008/5/15)
Harimoto (2008/6/16)
OJIO Yuna (2008/7/5)

Where Yokoi, Odo, Takamori and Aoki are affiliated to Shitennoji and Miki House. Given Yokoi's and Odo's zero international activities in 2022 and 2023, whereas Takamori had been playing weekly for the most part since May, 2023 and Aoki started playing again in Nov, 2023, I get the impression that both Yokoi and Odo will be passed over in the next cycle, much like Nagasaki and Kihara.

New rankings out. Satsuki Odo WR#21. For reference Kihara #27, Nagasaki #29. All 3 plus Miwa will be at WTT Contender Almaty in about a week. Hashimoto WR#35. Sakura Yokoi WR#78 (from #125).

 

[Vlad Celler]

Odo Satsuki will probably play in Panagyushte...
It's a shame that Hashimoto and Sato play so little...

they are very good players but they know they can't make it to OG, and even getting a spot to WTTC is very tough for them

Don't worry, @zeio will soon run JNT and shake things up and they will get their chance...

they had all their chances. they participated in the internal trials and never got far.

Yes, but the JTTA is too short sighted, the big picture is that China struggles vs pips and defense so they need to use the defenders while China still has this issue.

【卓球】パリ五輪報告会 女子代表に報奨金 早田ひなは500万 メダルゼロの男子代表は「ロス五輪で世界を驚かすようなリベンジを」
https://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/tabletennis/news/2024/08/035254.html

Hayata said she was really happy/excited (本当に嬉し/honto ni ureshi) that both she and SYB were playing with injured arms... [man, she is not good with words...]

Hirano said even though she lost in WS she was able to give her best without regret after trailing 0-3, and will make a return from break at WTT CS Macao 2024.

Harimoto2 said she thought she was not up to it when she found out she was assigned 2 singles from R16 to SF for WT.

Harimoto1 said even though he is disappointed, he made the best choices he could've and played at his best, that he has to work on his playing style and tactics in the next 4 years and aims to get back to the top 3 in WR at a minimum before the end of 2025.

All but confirmed that Ito/Hayata has retired? Harimoto1/Hayata on the way out as well if Matsushima/Harimoto2 perform?

I probably should have made a thread for Feeder Muscat but decided against it because worldtabletennis.com has been mostly inaccessible for me. But I want to give a shout out to Sakura Yokoi for coming back down 0-2 to beat Fan Shuhan in the QF. The quarterfinal stage featured 6 Chinese players plus Sakura Yokoi and Andrea Todorovic (who lost). Sakura was actually up 7-0 in game 2 but choked it. The Japanese coach could not detect the momentum swing that was so obvious. It really ended up Yokoi with a bit better consistency and battling for every point. In MS, 7 of the 8 quarterfinalists were from China with Yoshiyama facing Wen Ruibo. At the end, Yoshiyama imposed his very fluid game and Wen Ruibo got passive.

11 characters for Yokoi - 靠蠻力，球商問題好難解決。 Odo has gotten better in TTQ and will leave Yokoi in the dust at this rate.

 

[pongfugrasshopper]

I get that Odo is well ahead of Yokoi. But I think it's noteworthy that Yokoi (and Yoshiyama) are able to withstand China from completely dominating the quarterfinals (6/8 women and 7/8 men). And though you say Hashimoto beating 4 CNT players in a row to win a WTT Feeder title is nothing to write home about, I'm sure other countries would love to be able to do the same. These less famous players like Hashimoto and Yokoi might never make a WC or Olympic team, but they garner tremendous respect for more than holding their own against CNT players.

[pongfugrasshopper]

Both Yoshiyama and Yokoi make it to the FInals of Feeder Muscat by beating their CNT opponents 3-1! Yokoi beat Qin Yuxuan who is no joke. Qin beat Miwa 4-0 the last time they played at 2022 Feeder Otocec. Yokoi faces chopper, Yang Yiyun, in the WS finals. Yoshiyama faces Xue Fei in the MS finals.
