You ignored my next sentence and paragraph. The wildcards and WTT nomination are handed out at the discretion of the host and WTT outside the NER limit. There are no explicit rules stating that it should be based on WR.

There's no explicit rule against it either. You said it's at the host and WTT's discretion, they can choose whoever they want. I don't care about your next sentence and paragraph because it doesn't matter if Miwa has an argument. It only matters if QTY and co. have an argument, because once again, the WTT can choose whomever they want.

If the WTT had chosen Miwa, I'd be making the same argument if someone is unhappy that QTY isn't given a spot. That is, I would say that it doesn't matter if QTY is ranked 10+ spots ahead of Miwa, so long as Miwa has an argument then WTT can't be wrong in picking her because it's at their discretion.

Personally I would've preferred to see Miwa as well and I was disappointed that she wasn't chosen. But again, the WTT is free to choose whomever they want and their choices aren't bad. 2 of 3 did make it to the Semis, it actually can't get much better. I'm not arguing FOR their choice, I'm simply saying that their choice is not bad and that it's reasonable.

looks like Wang thought Fan was as injured as I though Fan was.  He seems genuinely surprised by what is coming back at him.  Wang needs to learn to change tempo.

So can we say now the FZD was coasting through the match with Truls?  Saving his energy for the real matches.

Ranking wise, this is the best result for the CNT.  Now, in addition to Zhang Rui, Qian Tianyi jumps into the top 10.  In fact QTY jumps into CXT's spot at WR#7.  Then I believe it's CXT at #8, ZR at #9, and Han Ying at #10.  

Then things shake up on Apr 4 where QTY will surpass Mima and Hina because QTY doesn't have any expiring points.  And neither do CXT and ZR so we could see all China in the 1st 6 spots followed by Mima and ZR.

He wasn't, he was just taken out of his book and surprised by the combinations Truls threw at him. Stylistic Match-ups are subjective.

By the same logic, why should I care about your argument, because it also doesn't matter if QTY and ZR have an argument, which is simply by being higher-ranked and established players per your point of contention? Why the need for wildcards and WTT nomination if WR and seniority take precedence, which again were points by raised by you? May as well do away with the NER and just go by WR.

And why the unused WTT nomination for a tournament of this caliber? They could've handed that out to LWS, who was just 2 places behind QTY in WR.

That's exactly my point, you don't need to care about my argument at all, or your argument, or any of the absurd arguments I listed above. It's at WTT's discretion, they just need AN argument, it could be any so long as it brings something to the sport. What happened to the last nomination anyway? I'm genuinely curious. Was a spot just left open?

Most of the matches in that record are from their cadet years.  But it seems that Qian Tianyi has a very deceptive rally game.  Maybe the CNT can find a lefty.  But I am still skeptical.

Honestly, one of the biggest difference between Qian Tianyi and Sun Yingsha is that the latter has hit the weights in the gym much, much more. Sun Yingsha is already having power output levels approaching the men's game, just wow at the muscularity and explosiveness. She looks like she could belong in Korea's Physical 100 haha...
