Kento Momota: Defeats Johnny Torsen 2-0

I was so nervous that I couldn’t play as I expected at the beginning, but there was something I gradually grasped from the end of the second game. I think I was able to finish the game with a very good feeling.

I was so nervous in the first game that I couldn’t concentrate on each point. The good thing is that I was able to calm down at the end of the second game, look at the opponent, and play while thinking for myself, so I think that is heading in the right direction. I was able to get a response.

(What I learned from the defeat of the Tokyo Olympics) I thought I had to be strict with myself, and my horizons were narrowed. I was so uneasy that I couldn’t believe in myself, so I think I learned how to feel about the game at the Tokyo Olympics.
