OSAKA, Japan - Akiko Takeda (front) and Mayu Kawagoe smile to spectators at a gymnasium in Osaka on May 2 after edging Croatians Tamara Boros and Eldijana Aganovic in the women's doubles quarterfinals of the table tennis world meet to secure Japan's first medal in the event in 26 years. The Japanese pair assured themselves of at least a bronze medal by advancing to the semifinals with a 23-21, 16-21, 21-19, 24-22 win over the Croatian duo who also tumbled out in the quarterfinals in last fall's Sydney Olympic Games.
