On the first round Tung got a tight match with Quoc Nguyen from Vietnam as well, both players understand about strategies and aggressive game with ball placement. Tung who was leading 2-0 change his strategy of placement and attach and Quoc take advantage of Tung’s distraction and he came back for a even score 2-2.
In the fifth set both of them start aggressive with continues top spins out the table, it was a very exciting match to watch, at the end Quoc Nguyen from Westminster won the match with the minimum difference. Final Score was 11-8, 11-7, 6-11, 8-11, 12-10. But not even this match stop Tung to keep fighting to be the Champion of the Equal Challenge.
