The Serbian Senior National Championships took place in Odžaci, bringing together the country’s top players in a high-quality tournament that featured full national team participation for the first time in years.

Dimitrije LEVAJAC, who plays professionally in Germany, successfully defended his singles title with a dominant 4-0 win in the final over 19-year-old Andraš OROS from Temerin. With this victory, LEVAJAC retained his triple crown, also winning gold in the men’s doubles and mixed doubles events.

In men’s doubles, LEVAJAC partnered with Nemanja ĐILAS (Banat Zrenjanin) to defeat Žolt PETE and Pera TEPIĆ in the final. He also triumphed in mixed doubles alongside Izabela LUPULESKU (Uzdin), beating PETE and Aneta MAKSUTI in the final match.

Bronze medals in the men’s singles went to national team member Nemanja ĐILAS and junior international Uroš NINKOVIĆ, representing STAK Beograd.

“I’m happy to repeat the success from last year. It was a great tournament with all the top players, except for Aleksa GACEV, who was injured,” said LEVAJAC.

“Mixed doubles were especially interesting with Žolt PETE returning to action alongside Aneta MAKSUTI, and also teaming up with Pera TEPIĆ in men’s doubles. That’s great for Serbian table tennis. I saw the same on the women’s side—all the best were there. Now I’m turning my focus to preparing for the World Championships in Doha.”

In the women’s singles, Izabela LUPULESKU captured her first senior national title, defeating her national team teammate Sabina ŠURJAN 4-2 in the final. The bronze medals were claimed by Andrea TODOROVIĆ (Novi Sad) and Dragana VIGNJEVIĆ (Novi Kneževac).

LUPULESKU and ŠURJAN, European bronze medallists in women’s doubles, also successfully defended their national title in the doubles event. They beat Aneta MAKSUTI and Tijana JOKIĆ (STK Novi Sad) in a repeat of last year’s final.
