(World Tour Grand Finals)

The 2020 ITTF Finals, also referred to as the Bank of Communications 2020 ITTF Finals for sponsorship reasons, was a table tennis tournament that took place from 19 to 22 November 2020 in Zhengzhou, China. The tournament was organised by the International Table Tennis Federation as a one-off replacement for the ITTF World Tour Grand Finals, which was cancelled in 2020 due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on sports. [1][2]

After series of cancellation of tournaments this year, the 2020 ITTF Finals is one of the three year-end tournaments that conclude the table tennis calendar in 2020. The other two, the 2020 ITTF World Cup and the inaugural World Table Tennis Macao, were also held in November in China.
