Satsuki Odo (大藤 沙月, Ōdō Satsuki, born 16 May 2004) is a Japanese table tennis player.

Career

Odo began playing table tennis at the age of three at a local club.[5] After winning a silver medal at the national championships in second grade, she set her sights on the Olympics. From 2020 to 2021, Odo won the junior singles titles consecutively at the All Japan Table Tennis Championships.[6][7]

In 2024, Odo transformed her playing style.[8][9] She captured her first WTT singles title at the WTT Feeder Varaždin.[10] After claiming multiple singles titles, she was selected for the Japanese national team at the 2024 Asian Championships, where she won gold medals in both the women's doubles and the women's team events.[11] Following a notable victory over Miwa Harimoto at the WTT Champions Montpellier, Odo broke into the top ten of the women's singles world rankings in November 2024.[12][13]

Odo won her first medal at the World Championships in 2025, partnering with Maharu Yoshimura in the mixed doubles. The duo achieved a historic upset by defeating the No. 1 seeds, Lin Shidong and Kuai Man, ultimately securing a silver medal.[14][15] In June 2025, Odo defeated China's Shi Xunyao, claiming the women's singles title at the WTT Contender Zagreb.[16]
