Son Wan Ho – a player whose admitted mental fragility has cost him important matches – savoured an admirable comeback today versus man-of-the-moment, Kento Momota, to propel him into Men’s
Singles final at the YONEX-SUNRISE Hong Kong Open 2018.
Given the odds stacked against him, having not beaten the Japanese wonder in four encounters since the latter’s return to the top flight – and with Momota in seemingly irresistible form – Son (featured image) displayed the grit and willpower which have often deserted him on big occasions, triumphing 18-21 21-16 21-19 in 90 absorbing minutes.
