The number one seed in the women's doubles is the multinational duo Ofdzia diaz/Ruprescu, but the biggest probability of winning the championship should be the 2021 Houston World Table Tennis Championships Women's Doubles Runner-up Luxembourg's Ni Xialian /Denut, the two of them won the first World Table Tennis Championships medal of this century for Luxembourg, and are expected to win the women's doubles championship in the absence of the China-Japan-South Korea women's doubles masters.
