Nigeria’s top table tennis star, Aruna Quadri has crashed out of the World Table Tennis finals in Doha, after losing to World Number one, Fan Zhendong 3-0 in the semi finals.
Quadri fought back from two sets down to beat Hugo Calderon in the quarterfinals to set up a clash with Zhendong in the last four.
He was unable to produce another stunning performance to get past the world number one ranked Zhendong.
Zhendong recorded a dominant (6-11, 9-11, 4-11) to win all three sets for a place in the final of the tournament.
Aruna’s wait for a first win over Zhendong continues having failed to win their last four clashes.
He is also yet to cross the quarter finals hurdle in the tournament.
