KUALA LUMPUR: Carrying the nation’s hopes in big tournaments at the age of 18 can be overwhelming but rising star Tomoka Miyazaki (pic) is welcoming the challenge.
World No. 11 Miyazaki was Japan’s top women’s singles player in the Malaysian Open after world No. 3 and 2023 winner Akane Yamaguchi withdrew from the tournament and Aya Ohori retired last year.
