(Asiad) S. Korea secures bronze medals in men's, women's team events in soft tennis
NAGOYA, Japan, Sept. 18 (Yonhap) -- South Korea has guaranteed itself at least bronze medals in the men's and women's team events in soft tennis at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games on Friday.
Both teams reached the semifinals of their events on Friday at Higashiyama Park Tennis Center in Nagoya.
There are no bronze medal matches in soft tennis, where both losing teams in the semifinals will receive bronze.
The soft tennis teams are the first South Korean athletes to secure medals at this year's Asian Games.
