Japan Open 2022: Highlights from Day 3

Indian shuttler H.S. Prannoy entered the men's singles quarterfinals at the Japan Open after defeating Loh Kean Yew of Singapore 22-20, 21-19 on Thursday.

Prannoy, who had reached the quarterfinals of the world championships last week, brought out his best game to get the better of Loh Kean Yew in 44 minutes, an IANS report said.

Kidambi Srikanth knocked out following a 21-10, 21-16 loss to local favourite Kanta Tsuneyam.

"For me, it was more about being consistent," Kidambi said after the match, according to an IANS report.

"I`ve been close before playing against him. At one point I was leading 15-11 in the first game and he was playing some attacking shots, but for me, I needed to play consistently. I couldn't give away any easy points. I feel really happy. I'm definitely tired, but I'm looking forward to playing my next match," an IANS report added.
