Slovenia’s Darko Jorgić has made it to the quarter finals in the men’s singles table tennis event at Tokyo Olympics as he beat Tomokazu Harimoto, Japan’s wunderkind and the fourth-ranked in this category. Jorgić’s feat is the best Olympic result in table tennis for Slovenia so far.

The 22-year-old, who now ranks 31st in world rankings, could get a ticket for the semi-final on Wednesday when he takes on the seventh-ranked Lin Yun-Ju of Taiwan.
