JAKARTA - The Indonesian men's singles badminton player, Jonatan Christie, remembers his best moment throughout 2022. The 2022 World Championships tournament was the best for him even though the results were not so encouraging.

At the 2022 World Championships, the player who is familiarly called Jojo stopped in the quarter-finals. He lost to Chou Tien Chen with a score of 21-14, 11-21, 20-22.

Jojo has the view that the best moment is not only about winning or the championship podium. The defeat to Chou is precisely remembered as a valuable experience because he feels his appearance has improved.

"I think (the best moment) was when I played against Chou at the World Championships," the player said, as quoted by Antara from the official BWF website.

"The result is bad. However, if we look at it from another point of view, it was the best moment for me and I have improved."

"If you ask me about my best performance, it's not always about the results. That's my best moment," he continued.

Jonatan Christie started 2022 by reaching three consecutive finals when he appeared at the Swiss Open, Korea Open, and the Asian Championships. Of the three finals, the world number four men's singles were only able to bring one title in Basel, Switzerland.

It was also the only trophy he brought from the 17 tournaments he participated in in 2022.
