Denpasar, Indonesia
World top shuttler Kento Momota knocked out Taiwan’s Chou Tien Chen on Saturday, tightening Japan’s stranglehold ahead of the final rounds of the Indonesia Masters.
Momota and Chou had a close semi-final in Bali, but the number one badminton player claimed a 21-19, 21-11 victory over Chou.
Momota, now the favourite to win the men’s singles trophy, will meet Danish Anders Antonsen in the finals on Sunday.—APP
