Having missed the 2017 edition, Benjamin Brossier believes he is ready to be very much part of the party.

“I heard that there is a good and special atmosphere in the hall where the ITTF Challenge Seamaster Nigeria Open is being hosted. It has been described as a unique atmosphere that you don’t see anywhere else. My friend, Antoine Hachard, was part of the tournament in 2017 and I wanted to join him but I was not available. This year it is going to be a good experience for me to be there and witness the lively atmosphere in Lagos. Benjamin Brossier

Most certainly, Benjamin Brossier is looking forward to the Lagos experience and anticipates a well organised event.

“I am waiting to see a well organised tournament; a good atmosphere and I hope that I will play well and contribute to all the beautiful experience of which I have heard; this is not my first time in Africa but this is my first time in Nigeria. My target is to play at a good level throughout.” Benjamin Brossier

Currently Benjamin Brossier is the 24th highest listed player on duty in the Men’s Singles event; in the Men’s Doubles he partners Antoine Hachard
