JAKARTA Men's singles badminton player Anthony Sinisuka Ginting is aware that he has not been able to bring out his best performance so he refuses to set a high target at the 2025 World Championships on August 25-31, 2025 in Paris, France.

The problem of prone bone injury and muscle inflammation on the right shoulder made Ginting sideline for approximately six months since the Malaysia Open 2025 in January 2025.

He then played his second and third tournaments in Japan and the China Open 2025 this month. However, he ran aground in the first half of the two tournaments.

"I'm not too satisfied with my performance, not like before I got injured. However, what I'm satisfied with is that my hand performance is okay, it doesn't hurt anymore. That's the most important thing," he said.

Even though he has recovered and returned to the tournament, Ginting still has to undergo medical treatment so far. He did this regularly after training and matches.

Ginting said that he could not miss this medical treatment because it was at risk of worsening his physical condition, which made him unable to miss again.

"In terms of illness, it does not exist during training or matches," he said, the bronze medalist at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

Ginting has approximately three weeks of preparation for the 2025 World Championships. He could use that time to improve his feelings and strategies.

Ginting's best journey at the World Championships is to reach the quarter-finals. He achieved this phase in the 2022 edition, which he lost against Viktor Axelsen.
