Gade plays his last in Tokyo after losing to Hu
TWO-TIME champion Peter Gade's final appearance at the Japan Open ended in a first-round defeat to Hu Yun of China's Hong Kong yesterday.
The second-seeded Dane, who came back from a left-wrist injury, lost to the China Masters finalist 11-21, 20-22 in the men's singles event.
"Of course, I wanted to do better. But I broke my wrist some weeks ago. Today I couldn't move. I still have pains," said Gade, whose wrist was in a plaster cast until last Friday.
"I brought my family here and I wanted to have a nice day with them. Hu reached the final last week in the China Masters. If I played like normal, it would have been a close match," he said.
"I love Tokyo. This is one of my favorite cities in Asia. I will come back some day," said Gade, adding that his best memory of Tokyo was a back-to-back victory in 1999.
Another two-time Japan Open champion, top seeded Lee Chong Wei of Malaysia, eased past Anand Pawar of India 21-13, 21-9.
