The women's singles final of the 2025 All-Japan Table Tennis Championships replicates the previous version, and Zhang Benmei and Ho are expected to make history

On January 26, 2025, the 2025 All Japan Table Tennis Championships entered the final day of competition at the Tokyo Gymnasium. In a Women's Singles semi-final, world No. 6 Miwa Harimoto defeated No. 10 Mimato Ito to reach the final, which is scheduled to start at 1 p.m. local time. If she wins, she will achieve the feat of becoming the youngest women's singles champion in history at 16 years and 7 months.

World No. 6 Miwa Zhang is expected to make history

In the women's singles quarterfinals the day before (25th), Zhang Benmei was forced into a hard battle by Yui Yamazaki, but finally got through the danger. Facing the semi-finals, she said: "I think a technical correction is necessary. ”

In this semi-final with Misei Ito, Miwa Zhang completed the sweep

In this semi-final with Ito, Miwa Zhang took the lead 11-4 in the first game, and also overwhelmed 11-3 in the second game. In the third game, they also beat their opponents 11-4, and after winning 11-5 in the fourth game, they directly killed the suspense of the game.

Hina Hayata, who aims for the third consecutive women's singles championship in the tournament

In the other semi-final, Hina Hayata, aiming for a three-time winning streak, swept the fast-growing 20-year-old rising star Satsuki Oto. In this way, the women's singles final of this year's all-day tournament will be a replica of last year, when Miwa Zhang lost to Japanese table tennis sister Hina Hayada in last year's women's singles final and won the runner-up. Miwa Haramoto's older brother Tomokazu Haramoto also reached the men's semi-finals of this year's All-Japan Championships, and expectations in Japan are now high for the first time in history.
