The World Team Table Tennis Championships in Busan have been cancelled following three postponements during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Organisers and the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF) Executive Committee decided to cancel the competition due to rising coronavirus cases in South Korea.
Many other regions in the world are also struggling to contain COVID-19, especially in Europe.
The World Team Table Tennis Championships was originally scheduled to be held in March 2019, before being pushed back to June and then September.
