Möregårdh easily advances to round of 16 at WTT Singapore

Truls Möregårdh had no trouble defeating Danish player Jonathan Groth and advancing past the second round of the WTT table tennis tournament in Singapore. The Swedish star won in three straight sets.

The winning numbers were 11–4, 12–10, 11–6 and thus Möregårdh is ready for the round of 16. He will play on Friday.

"I played very well today. Jonathan and I could have just as easily stayed in Scandinavia and played this match, we know each other very well. I see that there are a lot of Swedish fans here too, very happy to see that," says Möregårdh in SVT's broadcast.

On Wednesday, Kristian Karlsson also played for a place in the round of 16 in the singles tournament, but Taiwanese Lin Yun-ju proved too difficult. The Swede lost 0–3 (8–11, 3–11, 6–11).
