African leading tennis star, Aruna Quadri was made to do with a bit of struggle to qualify for the round of 16 at the world tennis championship at the George R. Convention centre, Houston.
Having went behind in the opening two sets, he rallied back to eventually win in seven sets 4-3 and said shortly,
"I was shaking from the beginning to the end and I couldn't understand why. I knew I could win or lose. I was not really comfortable with the way I played but I am really happy I won. It means a lot for Africa and Nigeria that I'm the first African to make it to the round of 16. I'm proud of myself".
The world number 13 will take on Swedish Kristian Karlson on Friday at the ongoing 2021 International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF) World Championship.
