Day 3 at the 2018 Butterfly Cary Cup Championships

Day 3 at the 2018 Butterfly Cary Cup Championships at Triangle Table Tennis Center

The signature event of the 4-day Cary Cup began on Saturday morning.  This 2-day Giant Round Robin featured 160 players from across the US and Canada.

Hammed-Taiwo Adeyinka continues to play well.  Hammed, who finished third in the Thursday Open event and second in the Friday 1800 and Over event, finished first in his group today and is the first name on the Division A Finals draw.  In addition to Hammed, the top half of the draw features Yijun Feng, Jeremy Hazin and Jishan Liang – all who will be favored in their first matches.  However, Jishan is matched against Jimmy Butler who upset him on Thursday.  The lower half of the draw is headlined by Junham Wu (2709) and includes Jinxin Wang, Kaden Zu, and Kai Zhang.  Only two of the 16 in the Division A Finals are rated under 2400: Wang Cheng (2383) and Michael Leshinsky (2174).
