Taipei Open 2023: Chico And Febriana/Amalia Advance To Final

JAKARTA The men's singles badminton player Chico Aura Dwi Wardoyo successfully reached the Taipei Open 2023 final. He qualified after defeating the host representative Wang Tzu Wei.

Chico, who is the eighth seed, set foot in the final match after securing the victory of two straight games 21-6 and 21-18 at Tian-Mu Arena, Saturday, June 24, 2023 at noon WIB.

In the final which takes place tomorrow, Chico is certain to face Su Li Yang. The host's deputy reached the final after expelling fifth seed Ng Ka Long Angus.

Previously, Chico and Su Li had met once at Taipei Open 2018. At that time, Chico managed to get out as the winner of the two-game match.

In addition to men's singles, the ticket to the final of the Super 300 BWF level event was also successfully secured by the women's doubles pair Febriana Dwi Puji Kusuma/Amalia Cahaya Pratiwi.

Febriana/Amalia, who are the first seeds in this competition, qualified for the final round after winning over third seed host Lee Chia Hsin/Teng Chun Hsun with 21-16 and 21-19.

In the final later, Febriana/Amalia will face the Korean pair, Lee Yu Lim/Shin Seung Chan. The fifth seed got a final ticket after stopping the host pair Hung En-Tzu/Lin Yu Pei.

This will be an interesting opportunity for Febriana/Amalia to take revenge on the Korean pair. In the previous two meetings, Febriana/Amalia were recorded as always losing.
