The 2020 ITTF World Tour was the 25th season of the International Table Tennis Federation's professional table tennis world tour.[1] [2]
The season was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with only three events having taken place. The ITTF World Tour Grand Finals were replaced by the 2020 ITTF Finals, a one-off event featuring the top-ranked male and female players, as part of the International Table Tennis Federation's #RESTART series of events in November 2020.[3]
