The group stage of the ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2024 presented by Galaxy Entertainment Group, sanctioned by the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF), organized by the Sports Bureau, Galaxy Entertainment Group (GEG) and World Table Tennis Management Group Limited (WTMG), and co-organized by the Macau Table Tennis General Association, concluded today (17 April) at the Galaxy Arena. All knockout stage places were decided - 16 for the Men’s World Cup and 16 for the Women’s World Cup respectively.
In the Men’s World Cup, top seed Wang Chuqin from China showcased his dominance with a resounding 4-0 victory against Kazakhstan’s Kirill Gerassimenko (11-7, 12-10, 11-2, 11-5) to book a place in last 16. Reigning Men’s World Cup champion Fan Zhendong also secured his place in the next round of 16 after clinching his second victory of the campaign by defeating Wong Chun Ting from Hong Kong, China 3-1 (11-5, 8-11, 11-9, 11-7). Ma Long, Lin Gaoyuan, Lin Shidong and Liang Jingkun have also progressed to the knockout stage after scoring straight-game victories over their opponents. Japan’s Tomokazu Harimoto advances to the next stage after drawing his match, edging out Denmark’s Jonathan Groth in total points accumulated during the match.
In the Women’s World Cup, China’s Chen Meng continues her quest to defend her title with a 3-1 (11-4, 11-4, 13-15, 11-2) win against India’s Sreeja Akula. Sun Yingsha secured her place in the next round with a commanding 4-0 (11-7, 11-7, 11-9, 11-9) victory over Chen Szu-Yu of Chinese Taipei. Japan’s trio Hina Hayata, Miwa Harimoto and Miu Hirano also clinched their places in the knockout stage, but compatriot Mima Ito crashed out after only drawing her match against Amy Wang from the U.S.A., with both losing out to group winner Suthasini Sawettabut of Thailand on the win-loss ratio of points.
