JAKARTA - The BWF World Tour Finals 2022 tournament has entered its last match in the group stage. The third match will be played at Nimibutr Arena, Bangkok, Thailand, Friday, December 9.
This will be a gamble for the men's doubles Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto. Fajar/Rian had to work extra even though they had bagged two wins.
In terms of point calculations, Fajar/Rian's position is still not profitable. Therefore Fajar/Rian must ensure that they return to winning against Ong Yew Sin/Teo Ee Yi in the third party.
"Ong/Teo have a good defense, we have to be aware of that. Even though the opportunity is great, we haven't qualified for the semifinals, so we can't be careless. Keep eye on winning and the best results," Fajar said, as quoted by Antara.
Unlike Fajar/Rian, the Hendra/Ahsan pair, who also won two wins, were confirmed to qualify for the semifinals of the year-end tournament. This certainty was obtained by the couple nicknamed The Daddies after winning their second victory against Kim Astrup/Anders Skaarup Rasmussen from Denmark, Thursday, December 8.
In the third party, Hendra/Ahsan will meet Liu/Ou to determine the winner or runner-up in Group B.
