The first World Junior Championships were held in 2003. China has dominated the medals table with 250 (!) medals over the years. Second best is Japan with 118. The best European countries have been Germany with 29 medals and France with 28.5.
128 players in four singles events
In Helsingborg, Sweden, some of the best U19 players such as Felix Lebrun and Miwa Harimoto will unfortunately be absent. Nevertheless, the field will be strong and the competition will be exciting to watch.
Compass has seven players among the 128 players competing in the four singles events. In the U19 category, there is German Annett Kaufmann, who has transferred to the ACE (Athlete Centered Ecosystem) project after eight years with compass. Annett is ranked in the top 8 in singles and second in doubles with Anna Hursey from Wales.
