JAKARTA The men's singles badminton player Anthony Sinisuka Ginting was withdrawn from the Korea Masters 2025 due to problems with the waist.
Main Men's Singles Assistant Coach Harry Hartono, in a statement on Monday, November 3, 2025, said that this waist problem was felt after he appeared at the French Open 2025 on October 21-26.
"Anthony Sinisuka Ginting cannot play at the Korea Masters 2025 because there are problems with the lower waist which is quite disturbing," said Harry.

"Now there is handling from the PBSI National Training Team (National Training Center) medical team and is required to rest for some time to come," said Harry.
Ginting's journey at the French Open 2025 ran aground in the second half. He returned from the tournament after losing three games against China's Taipei men's singles, Chi Yu Jen.
It was still his furthest journey since the combeck of shoulder problems (with the Korea Open 2025). After appearing in France, Ginting decided to miss the Hylo Open 2025 the following week.
Ginting has so far undergone eight tournaments after being absent for approximately six months. However, six of them came home in the first half.
Ginting's resignation means that Indonesia only has 10 representatives at the Korea Masters 2025, which will take place on November 4-9, 2025 at Wonkwang University Cultural and Sports Center.
