This year’s edition of the US Open Table Tennis Championships saw almost thirteen hundred players compete in 115 events, with the truly open title events at the top (men’s singles, women’s singles, men’s doubles, women’s doubles, mixed doubles), age events from U11 to 85 years and over, assessment events (both adult and junior versions from U1000 to U2000 and U2600, U2400 and U2200), Para events, Classic events (sandpaper and hard bat), a Parkinson Open and Family Generational Doubles. The location is the Mandalay Bay Resort and Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. The action started on Tuesday, and as we enter the final weekend, many of the Age and Rating events have already concluded, and many others will end today. This clears the stage for the main men’s/women’s/doubles events that will take center stage (and center court) tomorrow.
Some well-known names have already appeared on the rankings. Jimmy Butler has already collected three titles (50+ Men’s Singles, and together with Derek May he has also won 40& Over Men’s Doubles and 50& Over Men’s Doubles). The May family are prominent again this year, not only Derek in a pair of doubles victories, but also his father Pete who won in the 80 & Over Men’s Doubles. It wouldn’t be a major championship without the names Sweeris and Sakai on the leaderboard – this year Dell Sweeris won a pair of doubles titles as well as Men’s 80+ singles, and Connie Mae Sweeris won a pair of doubles titles (75 & Over Mixed with Dell and 75 & Over Women’s with Donna Sakai). Donna Sakai has one title (75 & Over Women’s Doubles) and three other medals, and her husband David Sakai has three medals of his own. Lily Yip has already won three titles (Women’s 50+ Singles, 40 & Over Women’s Doubles, and 50 & Over Mixed Doubles) and Patty Martinez-Kahn has won one gold and three other medals so far (with several events still to play).
The recommended events are covered in a separate article. We will have a summary of all events once the tournament is over. For the full results, visit the Omnipong Results place.
