Celebrating Champions: Okamura and Kobori Triumph at 100th All Japan Tennis Championships

The 100th All Japan Tennis Championships held from October 5 to 12, 2025, at the Ariake Coliseum, showcased remarkable talent as two talented athletes, Kyoka Okamura and Momoko Kobori, from Hashimoto Sangyo Holdings, brought home prestigious titles in both singles and doubles events.

Singles Championship

Kyoka Okamura, competing as the second seed, faced a challenging path in the women's singles. In the final match, she battled against fifth-seed Ayano Shimizu from Team LB, triumphing after a grueling three-set match with scores of 7-6(2), 3-6, 6-4. This victory marked Okamura's first championship at the All Japan level, a long-cherished dream for the athlete.

Quotes from Kyoka Okamura

Okamura expressed her feelings about the victory, stating, "Winning the All Japan Championship has been a long-desired goal for me. The matches leading to the final were incredibly tough, and during the final, I certainly faced challenges in my performance. However, I accepted these difficulties as part of the game and pushed myself to give my best. The journey to reach this title has indeed been a long one."

The journey wasn't easy; Okamura had to navigate through five matches, all going to the final set. This year, she gained experience by competing in Grand Slam qualifiers, solidifying her understanding of the mental toughness required to succeed in high-stakes competitions. Her focus and improvement in service power played a significant role in her championship success.

Doubles Championship

In the women’s doubles, Momoko Kobori, competing with her partner Ikumi Yamazaki from Shimadzu Corporation, secured a stunning victory as the top seeds. They faced a formidable duo comprised of Misaki Matsuda from Aime Services and Sakurako Hosoki from Harasho. The final score showcased their dominance with results of 6-1, 7-6(5), marking Kobori's first title in women's doubles and her second overall, following a mixed doubles win in 2019.

Quotes from Momoko Kobori

Reflecting on the experience, Kobori shared, "From the first round, the matches were tough, but the final was a nail-biter until the end. I was able to win thanks to Ikumi’s outstanding shots throughout the game. Although I previously competed in a singles final, this time, I managed to enjoy my play without being overwhelmed by nerves, which signifies my growth. Winning under the pressure of such a prestigious tournament gives me confidence for the future."

In recent times, Kobori has made notable strides in international tournaments, achieving two runner-up finishes in WTA 125 events and six victories in ITF tournaments. Her ability to smile and enjoy the game while maintaining focus contributed to her peak performance.
