JAKARTA - Putri Kusuma Wardani is enthusiastic about being able to appear at the Indonesia Master 2022. This will be the first Super 500 tournament for the 19-year-old athlete.

The Indonesia Masters 2022 will be held from 7-12 June at Istora, Senayan, Jakarta. Putri will try her luck in the tournament from the qualifying round.

"I'm happy. It's the first time that the Super 500 can directly play at Istora", said the 2022 Orleans Masters title winner at a press conference at Istora, Senayan, Jakarta, on Monday, June 6.

As a Super 500 level event, the main draw for the Indonesia Masters is only for athletes who are ranked 32nd in the world. The other athletes have to start the struggle from the qualifying round.

Meanwhile, badminton players like Putri, whose rankings have not yet been met, must enter the third waiting list. However, the withdrawal of several women's singles badminton made Putri's way to the qualifying round.

"Because I didn't know who the opponent was, I made preparations as usual (like other tournaments)", said the badminton player who was born in Tangerang in 2002.

In addition to women's singles, another Indonesian women's single who started the step from the qualifying round is Russeli Hartawan. To get to the main round, Russeli had to get rid of Japan's representative Asuka Takahashi.

For the women's singles sector, Indonesia only has one representative who goes directly to the main round, namely Gregoria Mariska Tunjung. The 2017 junior world champion will meet Thailand's Phittayaporn Chaiwan in the first round.
