Lin Yun-Ju, Jang Woojin Secure WTT Finals Spots as Kallberg Faces Must-Win Challenge

Posted : 08 November 2024

The competition at WTT Champions Frankfurt has significantly impacted the Race to WTT Finals 2024, with high stakes as only the Top 16 singles players earn a spot in Fukuoka. On Day 5 in Frankfurt, Lin Yun-Ju and Jang Woojin secured their places for the Men's Singles event.

 

Lin ensured his qualification by reaching the quarterfinals, while Jang's strong performance in previous tournaments, notably the Saudi Smash 2024, helped him clinch one of the final spots. With only one place remaining, the spotlight shifts to Anton Kallberg and Darko Jorgic, with Jorgic’s early exit putting Kallberg in a must-win scenario.

 

For Kallberg, advancing to the WTT Finals requires a title win in Frankfurt. He has shown his determination by defeating World No.1 Wang Chuqin in straight sets during the round of 16, proving his readiness for the challenge. The Swedish player now faces a tough quarterfinal matchup against local wildcard Ricardo Walther.

 

On the Women's Singles side, Adriana Diaz and Sofia Polcanova have secured their places in Fukuoka, with Diaz making her fourth consecutive appearance and Polcanova returning after a hiatus since 2021. The last spot in the Women's category hinges on He Zhuojia, who must reach the final in Frankfurt to overtake Jeon Jihee in the standings.

 

He Zhuojia, utilizing her wildcard entry effectively, has already eliminated the No.6 seed Cheng I-Ching. Her path to the WTT Finals remains open but challenging, as she next faces No.3 seed Miwa Harimoto in the quarterfinals. He previously defeated Harimoto at China Smash 2024 and needs to replicate this performance to keep her qualifying hopes alive.

 

With the final places on the line and intense matchups set, the concluding days of WTT Champions Frankfurt promise to be crucial in deciding who will secure the last tickets to Fukuoka for the WTT Finals 2024.
