JAKARTA – The draw for the Malaysia Open 2022 badminton championship has been released. A total of 18 representatives of Indonesia will fight in the event.

The Malaysia Open will be held from 28 June to 3 July 2022 at Arena Axiata, Kuala Lumpur. Indonesian representatives directly faced tough opponents in the first round.

In the men's singles number, Anthony Sinisuka Ginting will start his struggle in the Super 750 event by meeting the representative of India, Sai Praneeth. On hard Anthony only won and lost 4-3 narrowly.

Anthony as the sixth seed filled the top block draw. If you pass the first and second obstacles, the path of the best Indonesian men's singles is still difficult.

He has the potential to meet Viktor Axelsen who is the first seed in the quarter-finals. If only he had passed the quarter-finals, the athlete from West Java would most likely meet Chou Tien Chen (4) or his compatriot Jonatan Christie (7).

The women's singles, Gregoria Mariska Tunjung, will also face a steep road. The 2017 junior world champion had to start his stride by facing Japan's first seed, Akane Yamaguchi.

Gregoria has a poor win-loss record with Yamaguchi with a total of eight defeats from nine meetings. The only victory over Yamaguchi happened a long time ago, in 2018 at the Asian Games.
