"It went fine. Danny is a fantastic player and certainly did well. However, he can do even better than what he showed today, but I am confident that he will prove it for the rest of the tournament. Wales and England are of course the top favourites, but we just assume our own strength ", said the number one in the world at RTL 7.

"It took some getting used to for me of course, but I am satisfied that it went well", debutant Noppert said. "I've had an excellent preparation for this tournament and that feels good. This performance gives me confidence for the rest of the tournament."
