香港世界桌球大師賽10月紅館上演 邀請世界Top6球星訪港參賽

香港桌球總會今日公布，「香港世界桌球大師賽」落實於10月6至9日舉行，更首次移師紅磡體育館上演。香港桌球總會主席羅永聰（Vincent）透露，已邀請包括奧蘇利雲（Ronnie O’Sullivan）在內多位世界前列球星來港參賽，並計劃推出「平民票」，吸引更多觀眾入場睇好波！

香港桌總原本預留8月3至7日新伊館的場地，好讓球迷再次欣賞高水平比賽之餘，亦為提升香港桌球運動的關注度，有利爭取桌球成為2026年名古屋亞運項目，以保體院A級精英資格。惟受到港府隔離措施限制，賽事未能趕及下月舉行，不過桌總今日公布，賽期改至10月6至9日，場地亦首度移師香港體育館。

桌總主席羅永聰（Vincent）透露，打算向世界桌球總會邀請世界Top 6、包括奧蘇利雲、卓林普、沙比、羅拔臣、希堅斯及趙心童等球星訪港獻技。「經過多番努力，終於可以落實賽期和地點，其他細節包括球手入境安排和防疫措施，我們會繼續跟有關方面商討。至於球迷最關心的球員名單和票價，將於下月記者會上公布，不過我們希望調低票價，吸引更多人士入場觀賞高水平比賽，推動桌球運動之餘也希望香港『熱鬧』再現。」Vincent特別提及，紅館首次舉辦桌球賽事，有望打破世界紀錄：「國際桌球賽最多入場人數只在3數千人，今次紅館最少可開放85％座位，即逾8千個，假若到時滿座，就會成為史上最多現場觀眾的桌球比賽。」

山頂位睇桌球？

香港對上一次舉辦高水平的桌球國際比賽為2017年7月的「香港世界桌球大師賽」，賽事一連3日在新伊館上演，當時邀得奧蘇利雲、沙比（Mark Selby）、希堅斯（John Higgins）、卓林普（Judd Trump）、羅拔臣（Neil Robertson）、鶴健士（Barry Hawkins）、梅菲（Shaun Murphy）訪港，與傅家俊一同競逐挑戰賽，最終由羅拔臣擊敗「火箭」奪冠。「四眼Cue后」吳安儀亦與「白旋風」韋德（Jimmy White）及「桌球皇帝」亨特利（Stephen Hendry）合演表演賽。

8000位，山頂應該未必開

其他細節包括球手入境安排和防疫措施，我們會繼續跟有關方面商討。

佢話85%嘛唔山頂都半山腰

都應該好難睇到，可能50-100有交易

羅永聰（Vincent）呢條友鬼佬黎
點解要特登寫佢英文名

自2009年起成為香港體育學院A級精英項目的桌球，自 2014 起接連兩屆亞運取消這個項目，導致香港桌球一度陷入被踢出精英項目的危機。最快要待在2030年才能重返亞運舞台，因而面臨明年被降至B級的厄運。為了尋求「護級」，香港桌球總會正式發起爭取將桌球納入2026名古屋亞運會的行動（ #CuesportsNagoya2026），冀獲各界支持。

為了爭保A級項目資格，桌總冀與亞洲桌球協會和亞洲各國的桌球總會合作，向亞運組委會和亞奧理事會進行遊說，把桌球納入 2026名古屋亞運。至目前為止，2026亞運比賽項目尚未落實，根據亞運組委會公布的總體規劃，組委會可提議新增最多2個項目，亞奧理事會（OCA）同樣可以提議最多2個項目。

表演賽叫沙比嚟做乜

紅館，洗唔洗帶定望遠鏡

賽事將邀請8位球手爭逐，當中包括香港兩位桌球名將傅家俊及吳安儀。

Hong Kong border controls force snooker event to try again in October. Will its progress set precedent for Sevens, marathon?
Organisers seek progress regarding quarantine for delayed tournament, with government telling them to prepare with expectation of 7 days’ isolation on arrival
‘This will be very difficult for the players to accept, with the rest of the world having opened,’ source says. ‘The world governing body could not believe it’

Leading stars including Ronnie O’Sullivan, Judd Trump, Neil Robertson, John Higgins and home favourite Marco Fu Ka-chun were among those lined up by snooker bosses to feature in an invitation event.

Invitations were sent to the players, but Hong Kong’s mandatory quarantine requirements for arrivals in the city remain in place and the organisers have yet to obtain guarantees from the government.

Source close to organisers the Hong Kong Billiard Sports Control Council
“We are still in discussion with government regarding the quarantine requirements but they can’t promise anything at this stage. They have asked us to prepare everything in accordance with the current situation, which means a seven-day isolation is required for all inbound travellers. This will be very difficult for the players to accept, with the rest of the world having opened to all travellers.The world governing body of the sport could not believe it and has questioned us about it. The proposed date in August is therefore not feasible, because we can’t confirm anything at the moment.”

“We face difficulties in booking air tickets for the players because we are not sure if their flights would be banned from flying to Hong Kong,” the source said. “So we want to buy time for any new policy to come in.”

World Snooker Tour is eager to see the tournament go ahead in Hong Kong after the success of its previous version in 2017, and has reserved a new slot in the calendar in early October.
“October should be more feasible because we can have more preparation time,” he said. “Even if the quarantine requirement is still there, we can apply a safety bubble for the players, but they can only travel point-to-point from hotel to venue, without any interaction with spectators – which we do not prefer, and nor do the players. The cost will also be much higher.”

要隔七日 中咗就要去竹9灣
佢地真係肯咩

其實防守有時都幾好睇
