ITTF Sets Up Task Force To Address Players' Concerns After World Rankings Affair
The move was made after receiving the approval of an ITTF Executive Board meeting held on Thursday, in response to widespread concerns after renowned Chinese paddlers Ma Long, Fan Zhendong and Chen Meng had withdrawn from the ITTF world rankings released on December 31, 2024. The ITTF said that as part of this initiative, players, their entourage, and coaches, as well as related ITTF bodies will be consulted extensively, reports Xinhua.
In addition, a players' forum will be held during the 2025 World Table Tennis (WTT) Singapore Smash, which will take place from January 30 to February 9, providing an open platform for addressing the concerns. "The ITTF is fully committed to creating a supportive environment for players' well-being and fostering open dialogue within the entire table tennis community," read the statement from the global table tennis' governing body.
