The Saudi team will be among the 171 athletes from 36 countries set to take part.

The inaugural event will also feature five Olympic medallists.

Tatiana Minina, who represented the Russian Olympic Committee, and Serbia's Tijana Bogdanović hold silver medals from Tokyo 2020 and Rio 2016, respectively.

Bianca Walkden of Britain, Ivorian Ruth Gbagbi, and Rio 2016 third-place finisher Kimia Alizadeh - who represented Iran but competed for the Refugee Olympic Team at Tokyo 2020 - are the other Olympic medallists due to compete.

The competition will implement a single-elimination system.

The first two days are dedicated to preliminary bouts and semi-finals, before the finals are held on Saturday (November 27).

Winning athletes will secure 40.0 ranking points, with second place taking 24.0 and third 14.4.

"We are fully prepared from all technical and organisational aspects and the Saudi female players are raring to go as well in what will be the largest Saudi team to compete in a global competition like this," said Shaddad Al Amri, President of the Saudi Taekwondo Federation.

Athletes will compete in eight weight categories in matches comprising three two-minute rounds at the Green Halls.

"We pride ourselves on being a gender equal," said World Taekwondo President Chungwon Choue.

"We have Olympians, world champions and aspiring athletes from four continents competing at the competition and I have no doubt they will showcase the very best of taekwondo."
