JAKARTA - Indonesian women's tennis player, Aldila Sutjiadi, failed to continue her brilliant journey at the BNP Paribas Open, Indian Wells. Aldila, who was paired with Miyu Kato, was stopped in the semifinals, Saturday, March 18, western Indonesia time.
The Aldila/Kato pair must recognize the superiority of the Laura Siegemund (Germany) and Beatriz Haddad Maia (Brazil) pairs. They lost two straight sets with a final score of 1-6 2-6 in the 62-minute match.
"The opponent appeared much better today, while our game did not develop because it was suppressed from the start," Aldila said in a written statement received via Antara.
Despite losing his first semifinals at the highest level in the world women's pro-women tennis competition structure, Aldila has the right to an additional 390 points in the rankings. This is the largest donation in his professional career to date.
This number is even much bigger than WTA 250's points in Auckland, New Zealand, and Austin, USA.
Aldila, who is currently ranked 32 in the world doubles, the highest record in her career, will be ranked 30 in the world doubles, early next week.
The Aldila/Kato pair also pushed up one level in fifth place in Double Race which has the chance to qualify as one of the eight best doubles eligible to enter the year-end peak tournament, WTA Finals.
After Indian Wells, Aldila will return to take part in another WTA Masters 1000 level tour. He will take part in the Miami Open, next week.
Apart from Aldila, Indonesia also has other representatives, namely Priska Madelyn Nugroho who received a single qualifying wild card.
