Although he missed out on competing for his first WTT senior men's singles title, Guo Guanhong, ranked 191st in the world, made it all the way from the qualifying round to the top four, earning at least 155 points and aiming to rank among the top 100 for the first time in the world rankings next week.

Guo Guanhong, who has passed the qualifying test in two consecutive stops, defeated Australian No. 1 brother Pei Huan, Chinese rookie Xiang Peng and French dark horse Bardet in succession, and his performance was amazing.

Chen Yuanyu, who won the Düsseldorf Regional Championship at the end of last year, defeated Portuguese veteran Apollonia, German star Ocharov and Indian dark horse Shah in the first three rounds.

In the face of a strong opponent, Guo Guanhong started the first game 4:1 beautifully, although he fell behind 5:7 in the middle section, but then he won 3 points in a row to overtake 8:7, but unfortunately lost 4 points in a row at the decisive moment and gave up 8:11. In the second game, Guo Guanhong fought with Chen Yuanyu all the way, but lost 3 points in a row at 7 draws, and finally couldn't block Chen Yuanyu's forehand attack, and lost 1 game at 8:11.

Guo Guanhong, who lost two games in a row, stole the long ball in the third game when he fell behind 6:7 and won 8:7, but at the critical moment, he made consecutive mistakes in receiving the serve and forehand attack, losing 4 points in one breath, and finally lost 8:11
