One of them is the couple Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto. The men's doubles mainstay of Red and White wants to get the best results at the 2022 Swiss Open.

Fajar/Rian were even more motivated after their juniors Bagas Maulana/Muhammad Shohibul Fikri became champions at the All England last week.

"What is certain is that in every tournament we also want to always give our best and win. After seeing that many juniors have advanced, we don't want to lose. We have to really work extra hard to return our maximum performance," Rian said in a statement. official.

However, Fajar/Rian will face a big wall to reach the final at the 2022 Swiss Open. They must first pass the Malaysian pair, Aaron Chia/Soh Wooi Yik on Saturday, March 26 tonight.
