Quadri and his wife Rashidat got married in 2012 and now have three children together.

The couple now has three children; the first Mariam is three, while the second Junior Aruna Quadri is just a year-old.

This rounds up a remarkable year for the Oyo State-born tennis star who was impressive in Rio 2016 Olympic Games.

Quadri beat fifth-seeded player Chih-Yuan Chuang in the third round and German Boll Timo in the fourth to make it to the quarter-finals where he lost to world number one, Long Ma.

In the last ITTF ranking, he rose from 40th to 25th released by ITTF on Tuesday, September 6.

With this rise, he becomes the first African tennis player to be in the top 25.
