On the way to the gold medal, Psaros had to achieve some big wins, the first and best of which was against Korean Seo (round of 32), from whom she lost the only set of the tournament (18-6, 14). -22, 14-12).
He qualified for the quarter-finals with a 2-0 (14-2, 12-9) win over Britain’s Serrat, before overcoming opposition from Egypt’s Yahya Mohamed El by the same scoreline (15-2, 15-2). That is how he entered the medals.
In the semi-finals, Psaros defeated Iran’s Nasirahmati 2-0 (15-13, 23-17), and in the final – and at the height of his psyche – he actually… he went up against Moldovan Roska. Defeated 2-0 (12-6, 12-0).
