BUSAN, South Korea – China advanced to the final four in both the men and women’s events, while the women’s semi-finalists have been confirmed at the ITTF World Team Table Tennis Championships Finals here on Feb 22.

As opposed to their nail-biting 3-2 win in the men’s team semi-finals two years ago in Chengdu, China notched a straight-set victory this time, but the process was not like the score reflected.
