Felix LEBRUN is in to the semifinal of the Olympic tournament. French 17 years old star will contest the medal rounds after surviving a full-distance thriller against LIN Yun-Ju (11-7 7-11 11-8 4-11 11-8 8-11 11-6).

Just one point separated the duo overall with the scorecard clocking in at 63:62 in favour of French representative. LEBRUN will now wait to see whether he will face FAN Zhendong or Tomokazu HARIMOTO in the semifinal.
