The star-studded field includes all the top male and female players from C-J-K-T: Ke Jie – Yu Zhiying (China); Iyama Yuta – Hsieh Yimin (Japan); Park Junghwan – Choi Jeong (Korea); Chen Shih-Iuan – Hei Jiajia (Taiwan). Additionally, notable pairs from the West include Eric Lui – Sarah Yu (North America); Fernando Aguilar – Rosario Papeschi (Latin America); Ilya Shikshin – Natalia Kovaleva (Europe).
