Dublin's Nhat Nguyen has progressed to the last 16 of the Badminton World Championships with an impressive win over England's number one Toby Penty.
The Clare Hall racketman won 21-17, 23-21 over the world number 52 in his first game in the championships after getting a walkover from Malta's Jonatan Christie.
Ireland's number one, who missed out on a last 16 place in Rio following a defeat to world number 10 Wang Tzu-Wei of Taiwan, now has a chance to go really far.
The 21-year-old will now face the world number 42, Zhao Jun Peng of China, for a place in the quarter-finals in Huelva, Spain.
25-year-old Zhao beat Japan's Koki Watanabe convincingly in his round of 32 clash and is nine places ahead of Nguyen in the world rankings.
