When Fajar/Rian Tembus Is Ranked 3rd In The World Men's Doubles Sector
YOGYAKARTA - Indonesian men's doubles, Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto broke the world number three at the BWF rankings as of November 8 yesterday.
This is the first time Fajar/Rian have achieved to enjoy sitting in the world's top three after the Hylo Open 2022 event.
Not only that, this is also the first time in their career, they have become Indonesia's second best men's doubles pair on a ranking basis.
Fajar/Rian were able to displace their senior dominance, Mohammad Ahsan/Hendra Setiawan for his status.
Meanwhile, the national number one position is still held by the pair Marcus Gideon/Kevin Sanjaya, who are still estimated to be ranked 2nd in the world.
"Congratulations to Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto for setting a new record as the world's 3rd ranked men's doubles," wrote Badminton Talk.
"This is also the first time in their career, they will become Indonesia's second men's doubles by ranking, taking over Ahsan / Hendra," added the account.
Fajar/Rian's success in penetrating the top three positions in the world cannot be separated from their consistency performance throughout the 2022 season.
Fajar/Rian have indeed become the best men's doubles pair throughout 2022. They won four titles out of eight chances of appearing in the final of the BWF World Tour tournament.
They even have four titles in 2022, namely the Swiss Open, Indonesia Masters, Malaysia Masters, and the Denmark Open 2022.
This achievement was the most of the world's men's doubles, including the no.1 pair in the world Takuro Hoki/Hugo Kobayashi who only won two titles (Thailand Ope, Malaysia Open).
Interestingly, the couple from Bandung and Yogyakarta were also able to become finalists or runners-up in four different tournaments this year.
Starting from the Korea Open, Thailand Open, Malaysia Open, and Singapore Open 2022.
It is not surprising that Fajar/Rian became the first men's doubles to reach the BWF World Tour Finals in Guangzhou (14-18 December).
Bahkan, pencapaian Fajar/Rian ini lebih kencang dari pasangan Malaysia, Aaron Chia/Soh Wooi Yik yang lolos otomatis ke turnamen serupa dengan status Pemenang Dunia 2022.
If he is able to maintain his consistency, it is not impossible for Fajar/Rian to overtake the position of Minions as Indonesia's best men's doubles.
The previous calculation has also been discussed by the Badminton Talk account in the ranking simulation of badminton players if they only use value in 2022.
In the simulation, the men's doubles is predicted to have a new world number one partner. They are Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto.
Meanwhile, Marcus Fernaldi Gideon/Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo, who are currently ranked 2nd, will be bounced from the top 8.
