Do you know how many players there were in the prelims?

Japan had 17 players to start, if I count correctly. It looks like there might have been about 4 players per preliminary semifinal spot, so that's passable performance but not necessarily good.

[trout]

Total 362 players (253 from China(202 male, 35 female), 83 from Korea(68 male, 7 female and 8 amateurs), 17 from Japan(including 4 amateurs), 7 from Taiwan, 1 from USA and 1 from Europe) attended prelim.
