JAKARTA - Putri Kusuma Wardani beat Michelle Li from Canada to secure the Australian Open 2025 final ticket, which is Indonesia's sixth ticket to this tournament.
Putri was forced to rise from the loss of the first game and seal the win with a final score of 17-21, 21-16, 21-18 at Quaycenter, Sydney, Saturday, November 22, 2025.
The two seed from Indonesia had difficulty balancing the opponent's game in the opening game before rising and controlling the next two games to close the game with a win.
"Overall, I am satisfied with today's game, but at the end of the third game I was tense because Michelle Li with her experience and strengths could continue to pressure me until it's almost finished," said Putri after the match.

This victory led Putri to face seed one from South Korea, An Se Young, at the top party which took place on Sunday, November 23.
An Se Young is clearly a big challenge for Putri. In the previous five clashes, the badminton player who was born in Tangerang has never won.
"Tomorrow I meet An Se Young, South Korea, I want to bring out all my abilities and put up a fight and I don't want to lose," he said.
Five Indonesian final tickets before Putri were obtained by Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Shohibul Fikri, Raymond Indra/Nikolaus Joaquin, Febriana Dwi Pusuji Kusuma/Meilysa Trias Puspitasari, Rachel Alllessya Rose/Febi Setianingrum, and Jafar Hidayatullah/Felisha Alberta Nathaniel Pasaribu.
