Busan Makes History
When the world’s elite players gathered at the Busan Exhibition and Convention Centre (BEXCO) for the ITTF World Championships 2024, they weren’t just competing for titles – they were part of history. For the first time ever, Korea Republic hosted our sport’s flagship event, delivering a championship that exceeded all expectations. The combination of impeccable organisation and the nation’s passionate table tennis culture created an electric atmosphere, whilst the added pressure of Olympic qualification spots pushed competition to new heights.
Team China ultimately retained their crowns in both men’s and women’s events, though not without fierce resistance – the French men’s and Korea Republic’s men’s team pushed them to the limit, whilst Japan’s women provided one of the tournament’s most memorable battles before China secured their title defence.
