“I didn’t give up. I feel better and better on the courts. I was really close to hitting world number 2, that’s only positive”. 25th in the world Toma Junior Popov really didn’t come far from the feat today during the round of 16 of the Yonex French Open Badminton in Cesson. After dominating yesterday the Indian Srikanth KIDAMBI (world n°22 and ex-world n°1), the Fosséen narrowly lost in 3 sets against the Indonesian Anthony Sinisuka GINTING, seeded 2 in the tournament after a difficult match of 76 minutes: 11/21 21/17 and 21/19
As a reminder, yesterday Christo Popov (n°29) was eliminated in the first round by Singapore player LOH Kean Yew (n°9).
