2017 US Open: International Experience Leads Names

The 2017 US Open Table Tennis Championships begins in just 2 weeks, as the 97 event international competition heads to the Las Vegas Convention Center 17-22 December. The event is preceded by the US Para Open, a factor 40 para international event which runs from the 13-16 December. While the action will kick off with the North American Youth Olympic Games Qualifier on the 17th, the main attraction of this annual tournament is the Open Men’s and Women’s singles events and as always a star-studded entry list of the USA’s best active players are among the lineup, along with a contingent of players from other countries around the world.

– Leading the Men’s Singles seedings is 4-time Olympian Lucjan Blaszczyk from Poland
– 2-time US Olympian Lily Zhang leads the seedings in the Women’s Singles in a field of 80 athletes
