JAKARTA Mixed doubles Jafar Hidayatullah/Felisha Alberta Nathaniel Pasaribu became Indonesia's first representative to qualify for the quarter-finals of the China Open 2025.
They secured tickets after stopping Mads Vestergaard/Christine Busch (Denmark) 21-9 and 21-15 at Changzhou Olympic Sports Center on Thursday, July 24, 2025, morning WIB.
"Alhamdulillah, I can thank you for the quarter-finals, but I'm definitely not satisfied. We want more, we want to go to the semifinals. The real test is tomorrow because the opponent will get better," said Jafar.
This is their third quarter-final after winning the Taipei Open 2025 in early May 2025. Another quarter-final was won at the Singapore Open 2025.
