Hi,

According to this result:

Adrianna Diaz-Gonzalez (2499)78942
Zhang, Lily
 (
2641
)
31126US Women's Singles SE-Finals-9,7,8,730

Adrianna Diaz has a new name.  Is this a result of marriage or the custom of adding the mother's last name to your maiden name in some cultures?

Thanks.

Mother's maiden name: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adriana_D%C3%ADaz_(table_tennis)

In this Spanish name, the first or paternal surname is Díaz and the second or maternal family name is González.

Let me confuse you all some more. 

Is the 4th sister Gabriela's (married) name Centeno (rating 2042) or is this someoen else ?

           Name                               ID               State                        Rating 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adriana Díaz-Gonzalez         78942 Utuado, PR         2531
Melanie Díaz-Gonzalez         78943 San Juan, PR         2305
Andrea Fabiola Diaz-Gonzalez 223517 not entered, FN         2294

Reminds me of 4 Maleeva sisters in tennis  


Actually I like this Spanish method of including materal last name Just using paternal seems kind of sexist.

Thinking along the same lines of diversity & inclusion, all players should be required to have some sort of pips one side & smooth rubber (spinny or anti) on other side of their rackets (Penholders & American grip players must use one side about 30% of the time)  HA HA just joking
