JAKARTA - Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo/Marcus Fernaldi Gideon stopped in the first round of the French Open 2022, Wednesday, October 26. The pair nicknamed the Minions lost to Taiwanese representatives Lu Ching Yao/Yang Po Han.
Kevin/Marcus telah berjuang selama 66 menit. Namun, harus mengaku kalah dengan skor 15-21, 21-15 dan 17-21.
This failure is quite surprising because in the previous tournament, namely the Denmark Open 2022, the Minions qualified for the final.
After the match, Marcus admitted his condition and Kevin was not as good when appearing at the Denmark Open 2022. The shuttlecock is also one of the inhibiting factors.
"Today we didn't get a 'feel' from scratch, maybe there was a slight change starting from the shuttlecock," Marcus said in an official statement written from PBSI.
"But this is not the reason for our defeat. Our performance today is also different, not as good as the one here at the Denmark Open," he continued.
Marcus then said the opponent also played bolder in the third game. Lu/who is considered to be playing faster and quick to take the initiative to attack.
Kevin also admitted that the opponent's game was quite good in this match. "They are quite happy not to die a lot by themselves," he said.
