JAKARTA - Unsatisfactory results suffered in the Indonesian women's singles, Komang Ayu Cahya Dewi in the 2022 Uber Cup quarter-finals, Thursday. Facing the Chinese representative, Cheng Yu Fei, Komang Ayu ran aground in two games with a score of 12-21 and 11-21.
Even though he lost in the first match of the quarter-finals, Komang Ayu didn't cry. He actually saw the positive side of his meeting with Yu Fei. According to the 19-year-old badminton player, he became aware of how capable he has been on the field so far after undergoing a match with the 2020 Tokyo Olympic champion.
"From the game earlier, I realized that my standard of play was nothing compared to him," said Komang Ayu after the match, quoted from PBSI.
Realizing that his abilities are still far from perfect, Komang Ayu is determined to continue to hone his skills. Moreover, the meeting with Yu Fei also made the athlete's mind more open about what the standards of a champion are.
"To be like Chen Yu Fei, I have to improve everything. I realized, to be able to meet the standards of an Olympic champion requires hard work," he said.
Furthermore, Komang Ayu also gave praise for the classy game that Yu Fei showed in the match earlier. Komang also compared the performance of her opponent this time, which was far different from the world class women's singles, Akane Yamaguchi, which she faced before.
"The experience cannot lie, he (Chen Yu Fei) can play perfectly and there is no waste or waste of points," said Komang Ayu.
"Chen Yu Fei's game is different from Akane Yamaguchi's that I faced in the last Asian Championship (BAC). I can still control Akane's game, but against Chen Yu Fei, there is no chance at all," he explained.
The results of the match in the quarter-finals showed that Indonesia certainly failed to advance to the semifinals. Indonesia lost 0-3 to China.
