ITTF World Tour Kuwait Open - Once again, First Round Exit for Feng


It was the second consecutive week that Singapore's top female paddler Feng Tianwei had departed on her first visit to the table. One week earlier in Qatar, Feng was beaten by Germany's Han Ying. One week later, Feng was defeated by China's Chang Chenchen.

Feng found no answers to Chang's fast and furious attacking style. She was crushed in straight games 8-11, 9-11, 5-11, 10-12.

Meanwhile there was better news for the Singaporean camp. Sun Beibei, Li Jiawei and Yu Mengyu all managed to negotiate the first round successfully as did Yang Zi, Zhan Jian, Chen Feng, Gao Ning, and Li Hu.
