    Is it the first match in NT for Meijners since 2007? :)

    Yes it was:cheesy:

    Quote from pol

    WOW. I think it's a kind of record. ;) I don't recall such comeback among NT players.

    Polish OH Katarzyna Mroczkowska returned to NT after 12 years. She played WCH qualification in 2014, her last game before was in 2002.

    Quote from ossubtus

    didn’t keiba phipps return to the US NT after 16 years? she played in the 88 OG and then 2004.

    I don't know about record, but Phipps played at the 2002 WCH.
