I started to watch wheelchair tennis when Kunieda Shingo was the number one player in the world. I love how the players turn their wheelchairs and go after the ball. At first, it was strange to see the ball bounce twice and stay in play, but now I’m used to it. The French Open was held last week, and two Japanese players won. First, Kamiji Yui got two titles. She won the women’s doubles with the South African ace Kgothatso Montjane, and then she beat her Dutch rival Aniek van Koot and won the women’s singles title. After that, Oda Tokito beat his British rival Alfie Hewett to win his third French Open title in a row. What a pair of winners! (122 words)
