Alvalade table tennis sensation looking to renew his 2014 title

The Sporting table tennis star Aruna Quadri is once again in the running for the International Table Tennis Federation's Player of the Year award, after scooping the prize in 2014.

The nomination, in recognition of his brilliant performances this year, comes on the back of a quarter-final finish at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, where he was stopped by the world number 1, Ma Long.

The winners (male and female) will be announced in Doha on the 8th of December.
