JAKARTA The latest defeat in the first round of the China Open 2025 automatically extended Anthony Sinisuka Ginting's poor record against Brian Yang in the competitive arena.

Ginting, who played his second tournament in China after recovering from injury problems, had to lift the suitcase faster. He lost to the rubber games 21-9, 16-21, and 14-21 against the Canadian representative on Wednesday, July 23, 2025.

The bronze medalist at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics impressed in the first game and could take the lead. However, he then sluggish in the next two games that went fiercely.

"Indeed, the conditions here are quite felt, winning and losing the wind. This makes me less able to implement a disciplined strategy and die a lot on my own. That makes the opponent more confident," said Ginting.

This is Ginting's second consecutive defeat against Brian from a total of five clashes between them. He experienced one other defeat in the semifinal clash at the Indonesia Masters 2024, which is also a rubber game.

Prior to these two defeats, Ginting was dominant in their three clashes in 2023, namely in the Sudirman Cup, Singapore Open, and Hong Kong Open. He finished everything in two straight games.

In addition, results in China added to Ginting's poor record in two tournaments after injury. Previously, he also immediately lifted his suitcase in the first round of the Japan Open 2025 last week.

"From these two tournaments, the positive result I can take is that I can feel the atmosphere of the match again, the pressure, and the tension on the pitch," said Ginting.

Ginting's defeat left the Indonesian men's singles just hoping for Jonatan Christie, who qualified for the second half after beating Jia Heng Jason Teh (Singapore).
