Day six: Hewett loses out to Oda in the final

Alfie Hewett's quest for a first Japan Open men’s singles title will continue for another year after the British No.1 lost out to second seed and home favourite Tokito Oda 6-1, 7-6(5) on Sunday’s final day of the Super Series tournament in Iizuka City.

Contesting his first Japan Open singles final, Hewett was limited to just to points in the first four games as Oda made a blistering start, but he saved a set point before finally getting on the scoreboard at 5-1, only for an untimely forehand error to then hand Oda the set.

After a medical time out for treatment to his left arm in between sets, Hewett made an impressive start to the second set, his court craft and accuracy helping him to open up a 4-0 lead.

However, Oda slowly started to eat into the top seed’s lead and although Hewett had a set point at 5-4 and broke the Japanese serve to force the second set tie-break, it was not enough in his bid for a fifth singles title and second Super Series title of 2024.
