With Mang Manyu also not there then 3 of the top 8 seeds are Japanese.
China's no1 was the clear favourite but surely all 8 will fancy their chances now.
Is Miwa the favourite ?
Well no one beat a Chinese player in Montpellier except another Chinese player.

That said, details matter so I looked at the draw. They didn't reseed the draw but just replaced Sun Yingsha with Natalia Bajor. So now, the highest seed in the top quarter is Sato but she plays Odo in her first match so this is really Odo's quarter and Odo has been gifted a semi-final spot if se plays to her normal level. There are no CNT players in that quarter.

In Miwa's quarter, she gets Chen Xingtong if she gets far enough and that might be the most favorable draw Miwa van get of all the CNT players so it looks like a good one for her.

Wang Yidi and Chen Yi in the same quarter.

Hina Hayata and Kuai Man in the same quarter. Horror stories... and Miwa and Kuai are in the same half so Miwa had better learn real fast...

These are insane draws but nothing a good paycheck won't make up for...

Hi, is anyone going to be there in Frankfurt? To have an ocasional chat about table tennis or shared trip on / from the venue.

Cheers
This will be my first time watching a wtt tournament live at the venue. I will probably be there the whole event. If you or someone else also there wanna have a chat just message me 🏓😅

I hoped to see a few games of Sato but with Odo in first round it might be tough to even get through that.

Kuai Man and Chen Yi are gradually growing over Miwa if Miwa still only has her dad as coach.

CNT used to not easily withdraw from events, but now did it so easily like they don’t care about winning at all.

Great to see Natalia Bajor in the lineup. Quite pity for Sato as she did not have good draw in Montpelier and now in Frankfurt. Odo seems to deal quite good with defenders.
KM and CY are beating choppers now. Not easy to go deep if Sato Honoka can’t beat cnt players.

Reinforcing once again Harimoto and LYJ are considered the greatest threats to the CNT.

I meant that probably it would be easier then WMY or Chen Yi, but of course it is hard to say. Other thing is Sato is better then Hanoka.
