After a successful debut in March, the World Table Tennis (WTT) Grand Smash promises to be bigger and better, starting with the second edition of the Singapore Smash in 2023.
WTT director Steve Dainton revealed there will be more than one Grand Smash next season, with China lined up as soon as its strict Covid-19 restrictions are lifted, as well as a European venue, with a fourth destination set for 2024.
He said: "We grew and developed World Table Tennis from Singapore, so we really consider it kind of a home of table tennis. It is such a modern and vibrant city in Asia, which is our biggest market.
To continue on from here is an extremely important step for table tennis." At Tuesday's launch of Singapore Smash 2023 at the ArtScience Museum, it was announced that the competition featuring more than 200 players will be expanded - the mixed doubles draw will increase from 16 pairs to 24.
