SYQ is like a zombie, expressionless. Maybe he is not happy playing his compatriot instead of VA tomorrow.
Technically they can but then liang/wang cant go as both pairs need to be in the top 8 in the race to paris rankings if a country wanna send two pairs. So no way they will do that.
So strange that all the seeded pairs in the lower half of the mixed doubles draw were out in the first round.
As mentioned the quota is given to NOC (country) not players , China got 2 slots for MD as Liu/Ou is ranked 8. This is from official Olympic website : In the men’s and women’s singles events, two quota places (for two athletes) will be awarded to the NOCs with two or more athletes ranked between 1 and 16 in the ‘Paris Ranking Lists’. Otherwise, one quota place is allowed per NOC. In men’s, women’s and mixed doubles, the same system is applied, however the two quota places (for four athletes) are awarded to the NOCs who have two or more pairs ranked between 1 and 8.
cyf can definitely beat asy, but she gotta find a way to be in top shape for 3 long games coming into the olympics
