Yubins performance fell well short of expectations, adding to her continuing challenges against Xingtong. Indeed, Shin Yubin faces an urgent challenge as she searches for answers against Xingtong, having failed to secure a single game in both of their encounters in 2025,
Xingtong will face the winner of Bernadette Szocs (Romania) and Bruna Takahashi (Brazil) in the quarterfinals.
Tomokazu Harimoto (Japan) wins 4-0 (11-7, 11-9, 12-10, 11-8) against surprise qualifier Feng Yi-Hsin.
Feng, having caused a major upset in the group stages by eliminating World No. 6 Felix Lebrun through a superior points win/loss ratio, struggled to replicate his sharp form. Facing an in-form Harimoto, Feng faltered under pressure, conceding the match with little resistance.
In their first-ever encounter, Harimoto showcased excellent preparation, effortlessly dominating the match and dispatching Feng with remarkable ease.
He now awaits the winner of Hugo Calderano and Hiroto Shinozuka in the Quarterfinals.
