WTT Men’s Finals Doha 2023 On the 4th, in the men’s singles quarterfinals, Tomokazu Harimoto (20 = Tomokazu Kikaku / world ranking 11th) defeated Wang Chuqin (23 = China / world ranking 2nd) ) lost by a game count of 0-3.

However, in the first game, Harimoto was attacked by Oh with a backhand straight attack to the back and middle, giving him the lead. Harimoto attacked Oh’s forehand side from the middle and caught up with him at 9-9, but in the end he was pushed by both of Oh’s hands and allowed him to take the lead at 10-12.

The two played a cross game, using their right to serve well to score points. In the second game, it was a close race to 8-8, but Oh, who scored three points from a sharp serve-receive, took it once more at 8-11.

The third game is endless. Although Harimoto is closing in on Oh, it’s a tough turn of events as they can’t even match the score. He lifted the ball and was hit on the counter, and in the end he was defeated by a no-touch ace on his backhand.
