J-Arena S2019E25 - Wheelchair Tennis

Wheelchair tennis largely follows the rules of the standard version of the sport, but the ball is allowed to bounce twice. Players employ deft, creative chair work to make up for lack of sideways movement, dashing around the court in an instant. Japan has a number of world-class players, but the country's greatest pioneer of the sport is multiple Paralympic medalist Satoshi Saida. Now 47, he's gearing up for a final shot at the podium, hoping to crown his career with a medal in Tokyo next year.
