KUALA LUMPUR, July 3, 2022 (AFP): Japan's Kento Momota suffered a heavy defeat in the Malaysia Open final Sunday (July 3) against world number one Viktor Axelsen, the latest disappointing performance from the once undisputed king of badminton.
The tournament marked the first time Momota has played in Malaysia since he was involved in a car crash there two years ago, which sent his career into free fall.
