PT 75 Clinches Championship League Title in Finland

PT 75 successfully defended their top spot on Saturday in the four-team final tournament of the Finnish Table Tennis Championship League, held at Ruskeasuo in Helsinki. The team from Tampere defeated OPT-86 of Oulu convincingly, 4–0, in the semi-finals and went on to overcome Turun Kaiku 4–2 in the final.

The bronze medals were secured by PT Espoo, who edged out OPT-86 in a narrow 4–3 contest.

“The deciding match was a real battle. At one point, it felt like it might slip away from us, but I managed to get into the game and focus on my own performance. Retaining the title feels fantastic,” said PT 75’s Riku AUTIO after the long day of matches.

The standout player of the season was PT 75’s Otto TENNILÄ, who posted an impressive record of 26 wins and 5 losses. This marks the ninth Championship League title for PT 75.

“Our overall performance was excellent. Everyone gave their all and managed to secure key victories,” said TENNILÄ, also known as “Sensei-Otto from Pongfinity.”

In terms of league placement, Helsinki-based MBF retained its position in the top division directly. Kosken Kaiku and TIP-70 also held their league spots via the qualification rounds. OPT Ratamo will be relegated to Division 1 next season, with Smash Helsinki earning promotion in their place.
