Krysten Coombs Triumphs in Men’s Singles SS6
Krysten Coombs from England emerged as the leader of his men’s singles SS6 group after a convincing win against Niall McVeigh of Ireland with a score of 21-13, 21-10. Coombs, feeling optimistic about his performance, shared, “We’ve had previous battles. In the first game, it took some time to get into the rhythm, but by the second game, I started to feel right. Although I accidentally hit him on the top of his eye with a backhand shot, I’m glad I could finally get going. I’m looking forward to the week ahead.”
Niall McVeigh, who lost to Coombs and secured the second spot in the group, had previously won the World Champion SS6 title back in 2011. Reflecting on his match against Coombs, McVeigh expressed his admiration, saying, “I always have a great time playing Krysten. The game has evolved significantly over the years. When I first started, there were only about seven of us in our category, but now, there are more than 30. Back home, I have to train full time because everyone is so good, and there is fierce competition.”
