Justin also scored a convincing 21-16, 21-14 victory over 20-year-old Wyman Goh, the 2019 World Junior Championships’ quarter-finalist, in the morning session. “I’m pleased with the good start, especially the hard-fought win against Ken Yon,” said Justin, who finished third in the last challenge held in November. But Justin needs no reminder about the danger of getting carried away. In the previous showdowns against seniors last November, Justin won his first two matches but ended up finishing third.
