To the Integrity Department of the ITTF, We are writing with deep concern regarding a serious incident during the ongoing 2025 World Table Tennis Championships held in Doha, Qatar. The incident took place during the mixed doubles match between Wang Chuqin / Sun Yingsha (China) and Hugo Calderano / Bruna Takahashi (Brazil). Before the match, as per ITTF procedures, Wang Chuqin submitted his racket for official inspection and sealing. However, upon retrieving the racket just before the match, it was found to be visibly damaged, with a significant tear in the rubber surface—a form of damage that clearly could not have occurred through natural wear or routine handling. The explanation given—“no one touched it”—is unacceptable in a professional sports context. Once the racket has been sealed and taken into official custody, it is the responsibility of the tournament organizers and officials to ensure its safety, integrity, and fair return. This is not only an issue of individual fairness but a matter that affects the credibility and reputation of the entire championship. Equipment is an extension of the athlete, and any compromise in this area directly impacts competitive fairness and psychological confidence. We respectfully urge the ITTF to: Launch an immediate and transparent investigation into the incident. Review and reinforce the security protocols surrounding racket sealing and storage. Communicate the findings and steps taken to ensure no recurrence of such events in future matches. Players deserve a level playing field, and fans deserve to trust in the integrity of our sport. Thank you for your attention and prompt action.

According to tournament regulations, after pre-match training, athletes are required to submit their rackets for inspection. Once the rackets pass the inspection, they are sealed and kept in custody by the referees. However, during the World Table Tennis Championships in Doha, Wang Chuqin’s racket was found to have damaged rubber. This raises a serious question: how could the rubber become creased on a racket that was supposed to be securely stored and intact? Moreover, the creases on Wang Chuqin’s racket were highly visible and pronounced. If this wasn’t the result of deliberate tampering, then how could such severe and clearly defined damage have occurred? The conspicuous nature of the damage strongly indicates that the racket was not in its original state. Yet, the referees insisted that there was no issue with the racket. This contradiction raises suspicions—could there be unknown factors that compromised the fairness of the referees’ judgment? In addition, it’s worth noting that the same journalist who previously disrupted order at the Paris Olympics was once again present at this event. Is this merely a coincidence? Or could it be part of a calculated, premeditated arrangement? Given the journalist’s past misconduct and the timing of their appearance in relation to the racket incident, it is difficult not to suspect a deeper connection. Table tennis has long upheld the principles of fairness, impartiality, and transparency. Athletes devote immense effort and dedication on the court, and their hard work deserves respect and protection. The racket is a vital tool for any player, and its safety and integrity are of utmost importance. This incident has seriously impacted the fairness of the competition and the athlete’s performance, as well as eroded fans’ trust in the sport. We sincerely hope that the International Table Tennis Federation will take this matter seriously and promptly launch a thorough, comprehensive, and impartial investigation. The tr

What a frustrating committee! You can destroy anyone’s dream easily! You must give a response to Wang Chuqin for what happened today!
