Ding will next face teammate Chen Ke, who eliminated Jeon Jihee of South Korea after six games.

After upsetting Japanese promising star Mima Ito 11-7, 12-10, 8-11, 11-9, 9-11, 11-4, Sun Mingyang set up another all-Chinese clash with Zhang Qiang in the second round.

Gu Yuting and Li Xiaodan also marched on in the top half, but Li Jiayi suffered a bit disappointment as she fell short after seven games against Cheng I-Ching of Chinese Taipei.

Zhu Yuling, women's World Cup holder, beat Japan's Miyuu Kihara 4-1. Chen Meng, who claimed the German Open title last weekend, got past Lee Ho Ching of Hong Kong, China 4-2.

Much surprise arrived for Chen Xingtong, as she shocked Japanese promising star Miu Hirano 4-1.

Two matches on a single day did not impact Zhu and Chen either, as they accounted for Polina Mikhailova and Viktoria Pavlovich in straight games.

The Swedish Open, final stop of the 2017 ITTF World Tour, will see four events' winners on Sunday. China's Zhang Rui was crowned in the U21 women's singles on Wednesday.
