One notable change is the removal of the mandatory participation requirement for all WTT Grand Smashes, effective immediately, aiming at providing greater flexibility for athletes.
It means that players will be invited to the remaining three WTT Grand Smashes in 2025 - the United States Smash (July 3-13), Europe Smash (August 14-24), and China Smash (September 25-October 5). In addition, players will be granted two annual exemptions from WTT Champions event participation, allowing them to better manage their schedules and planning, commencing from the 2025 WTT Champions Incheon to be held from April 1-6, reports Xinhua.
WTT will grant Olympic gold medallists the opportunity to compete in all four WTT Grand Smashes and six WTT Champions events, which will be valid for four years following their Olympic triumph.
