  • Kento Momota mengaku berlatih sendiri di Indonesia jadi salah satu momen tak terlupakan dalam 10 tahun terakhir.
  • Pebulu tangkis asal Jepang itu mengaku kesepian saat latihan di Indonesia. 
  • Pada saat bersamaan, gempa dahsyat melanda Jepang pada 2011 hingga membuatnya menunda jadwal pulang.

SKOR.id - Bukan rahasia jika Kento Momota pernah menimba ilmu di Indonesia. Tepatnya ketika masih berstatus pemain junior.

Berada di bawah pengawasan pelatih PB Djarum, Imam Tohari, Momota muda dua kali datang ke tempat Taufik Hidayat dan berlatih di Ciracas, Jakarta.

Pada medio 2010, Momota yang masih duduk di kelas 3 SMP, dibawa Imam Tohari untuk berguru dengan legenda tunggal putra, Taufik Hidayat.

Setahun kemudian atau saat kelas 1 SMA, Momota kembali ke Indonesia untuk mempertajam permainan bulu tangkisnya.

Dalam wawancara dengan Badspi.jp, baru-baru ini, Momota mengaku momen berlatih di Indonesia jadi salah satu pengalaman tak terlupakan.

Andalan timnas Jepang untuk Olimpiade Tokyo 2020 itu sempat merasakan kesepian ketika berlatih di Indonesia. 

Apalagi, pada 2011, gempa 9.0 skala ritcher mengguncang Fukushima, yang dianggap seperti kampung halamannya.

"Saya masih ingat rasanya kesepian, saat itu. Ketika terjadi gempa bumi, saya sendirian di Indonesia (untuk berlatih)," kata pria 26 tahun itu.

"Saat itu, ketika duduk di akhir kelas satu SMA, saya dikirim sendirian ke Indonesia untuk mempertajam latihan."

"Ketika makan siang, seorang staf lokal memanggil dan dari tayangan televisi itu saya tahu untuk kali pertama kejadian tersebut."

Momota kemudian menceritakan, sesaat setelah tahu kabar gempa bumi dan tsunami, dia sempat kehilangan kontak dengan kerabat di Jepang.

"Ketika itu saya merasa sangat kesepian tapi tidak bisa kembali ke Jepang keesokan harinya (karena efek gempa)," Momota menjelaskan.

Imam Tohari menuturkan, dalam wawancara dengan Jawa Pos, 2020, meski sempat tak kerasan Momota antusias belajar dengan Taufik Hidayat.

Bahkan, Momota siap kembali ke Indonesia jika ada kesempatan untuk menimba ilmu dengan peraih medali emas Olimpiade Athena 2004 itu.

"Setelah itu saya tawari, mau nggak ke Taufik Hidayat lagi? Langsung dia mau. Tadinya sih nggak mau karena awalnya kan masih kecil," ujar Imam. 

Kento Momota tengah bersiap untuk kembali ke turnamen dunia setelah kecelakaan, awal tahun lalu.

Pemain nomor satu dunia itu dijadwalkan tampil perdana di All England 2021 pada 17-21 Maret mendatang.
