Zitat von adham

This is a question of open market. ... So, at the end, I believe it's a question of priorities and a question of balance.

Is this supported by The ITTF (and the continental associations)? I'd assume that the DTTB for example is in a difficult position as they'd love to keep their best players in the clubs (in support of the audience and maybe TV coverage) while the (top) players have other things in mind. On the other side, smaller associations with low-ranked players may be happy to send their players to international tournaments where they can gain experience (among other things) as the audience is not a matter for them.

Does the ITTF consider to increase or lower the number of tournaments?
