World Table Tennis Championships
Encyclopedia
The World Table Tennis Championships are held since 1926, biennially since 1957. Seven events were included in the Championships. The World Team Table Tennis Championships, which include men's team and women's team events, were first their own competition in 2000. The Team Championships are held in even numbered years. The World Table Tennis Championships are currently held in odd numbered years including men's singles, women's singles, men's doubles, women's doubles and mixed doubles events.

In the earlier days of the tournament, Hungary's men's team was a dominant force, winning the championships 12 times. From the 1960s onwards, China emerged as the new dominant power in this tournament and continues to dominate the sport until this day. China's men's team holds a record 17 world team championship titles.

In the 1950s, Japan's women team was a force to be reckoned with winning a total of 8 titles. The Chinese women started their strong grip on the world team championships from the 1970s onwards. They have only lost twice since 1975. China holds 17 women's team titles.
