Nigeria Table tennis Superstar Aruna Quadri is set for the 2019 Qatar open coming up on the 16th of March in Doha.
In 2019, several tournaments are lined up such as Oman open, Spanish open and the Qatar open but the star in an interview with brila.net’s Tony Bekederemo said he is getting set for the Qatar open which is a bigger tournament.
”Yes there is going to be the Oman open, Spanish open and Qatar but I will only be participating in Qatar open because it is the open that has the highest world ranking point and am looking forward to better my world ranking point next month”.
According to the tennis star ”I have been practicing very well I have been playing in league matches almost every weekend and also we are in the semi-finals of the ETTU cup so with this tournament and the training I think am ready to play in the tournament” Quadri concludes.
