After almost a year of absence, Kento Momota, the world’s number one badminton player, has made a remarkable comeback. Momota, who suffered a fractured eye socket in an accident following his victory at the PERODUA Malaysia Masters in January 2020, returned to the court with a resounding victory at the All-Japan National Championships.
In his first-round match against Koshiro Moriguchi, Momota displayed his exceptional skills, defeating his opponent 21-12, 21-14. Despite his initial nerves, Momota regained his composure in the second game and showcased his trademark power with a smashing shot that sealed his victory.
