Meng Yuan def Akiko Yonemura(youger sister) 57 76(3)75
Erika Sema(younger sister) now does rehabilitation(left knee)

Do you think god hates Japanese players?
Because Erika Sema, Erika Takao, Ryoko Fuda wasted time by an injury i
n the days of the teens for about 1 year.Also Akiko Morigami now does rehabilitation.
It may be natural the Asian compares it with a white people in the days of the teens,
and to be easy to be hurt because growth is slow.
