Australia finished the 2026 Commonwealth Table Tennis Championships in New Delhi with three bronze medals, following medal-winning performances in the Women’s Team, Women’s Doubles and Men’s Doubles events.

The 22nd edition of the Commonwealth Table Tennis Championships was held at Thyagraj Stadium from 27 July to 2 August, bringing together athletes from 25 Commonwealth nations.

Australia’s Women’s Team of Yangzi Liu, Minhyung Jee, Constantina Psihogios and Jiamuwa Wu produced an impressive campaign to secure bronze, going unbeaten through the preliminary and Championship stages before narrowly missing out on a place in the final.

The team opened its campaign with wins over Bangladesh, England and Cyprus to progress from the preliminary stage, and continued their strong form in the Championship Group, recording victories over Canada and Sri Lanka to book its place in the semi-finals.

Despite wins for Yangzi Liu over Ai Xin Tee and Minhyung Jee over Li Sian Alice Chang, Malaysia prevailed 3–2, bringing Australia's run to an end and securing the team a bronze medal.

Australia added another medal in the Women’s Doubles, with the Australian pairing of Psihogios and Liu progressing through the knockout stages before reaching the semi-finals. The pair recorded victories over Scotland, Cyprus and India, before falling to defeat in the semi-final to India. Jee and Wu reached the quarter-finals of the Women's Doubles event, but came up against a resolute Indian pairing of Sayali Rajesh Wani and Taneesha Sanjay Kotecha, who would go onto win the gold medal.

In the Men’s Doubles, Nicholas Lum and Aditya Sareen also delivered a bronze medal for Australia. The pair progressed through the elimination rounds, with Lum and Sareen defeating pairs from Namibia, Maldives, and India, before a semi-final loss to Malaysia’s Javen Choong and Qi Shen Wong.

After impressive wins versus Malaysia and India, Liu faced Syndrela Das in the quarter-finals of the Women’s Singles, but a 4-2 defeat meant that Liu was unable to add to her Doubles medal. Psihogios, who had beaten two Indian competitors on route to the quarter-finals, fell to a defeat to eventual gold medallist Yashaswini Deepak Ghorpad. Jee, who had defeated opponents from Sri Lanka and India on her way to the quarter-finals, was eventually defeated by Sutirtha Mukherjee (4-1).

The Men’s Singles competition also saw Australian players advance into the knockout stages, with Lum and Sareen both progressing into the quarter-finals, but defeats to home favourites Manush Utphalbai Shah and Ankur Bhattacharjee respectively would signal the end of the singles events for Lum and Sareen.

Psihogios and Sareen also progressed into the quarter-finals of the Mixed Doubles competition, but it was the host nation who would progress into the semi-finals with a 3-1 (11-4, 11-5, 8-11, 11-8) win.
