Men's Singles Without Target At PBSI Home Tournament

JAKARTA - PBSI Home Tournament will be held again on July 8-10, 2020. This time it will compete in the men's singles sector where three names are the top seeds.

The names Jonatan Christie and Anthony Sinisuka Ginting are believed to be able to penetrate the top party. However, don't forget the figure of Shesar Hiren Rhustavito who can break many people's predictions. Meanwhile, Ikhsan Leonardo Imanuel Rumbay, Christian Adinata and Bobby Setiabudi could have created a surprise.

"I think that in the final it should still be between Anthony, Jonathan or Shesar. If there is a coating that can beat the seniors, why not?"

PBSI Men's Singles Head Coach, Hendry Saputra

Hendry said the men's singles players were ready to fight in this tournament. However, no targets were placed on the players. He considered that this event was only a trial.

Hendry explained that the coaches only wanted to see the extent of the players' condition after not feeling the atmosphere of the match for a long time. Understandably, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Jojo and his friends were only busy with training routines.

"We want to evaluate the condition of the players, so far we have only been able to see their performance in training, now it can be seen in the matches," explained Hendry.
