Singapore's top men's singles shuttler Ronald Susilo came out firing in the second game to secure a first round win over Scotland's Alistair Casey at the world badminton championships.
After a dog-fight in the opening game at 22-20, injury-affected Susilo picked his form and closed out the second game at 21-12.
"I'm feeling OK. Today I didn't give it all as I wanted to learn about the stadium, wind, court etc," said Susilo.
The eleventh seed and world number thirteen has just recovered from injuries.
"Due to injuries, I didn't go through much training. I think things will become better," he added.
When talking about China's world number one Lin Dan, Susilo said: "I never played him before but I know he did a good job in the past few years. He is surely one of the champion favorites."
