JAKARTA The Korean Open 2023 badminton competition has entered the quarter-finals. The following is the schedule for the Indonesian representative match at the BWF Super 500 level event.
The quarter-finals will take place on Friday, July 21, 2023, at Jinnam Stadium. Indonesia only has one representative left, namely the men's doubles pair Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto.
In the previous round of 16, Indonesia actually still had a total of six representatives remaining. Unfortunately, the other five representatives had to lift the suitcase earlier after surrendering from their opponents.
Dejan Ferdinansyah/Gloria Emanuelle Widjaja, Putri Kusuma Wardani, Pramudya Kusumawardana/Yeremia Rambitan, Praveen Jordan/Melati Daeva Oktavianti, and Gregoria Mariska Tunjung, were the names whose steps were stopped.
Sementara itu, Fajar/Rian sukses memperpanjang langkah mereka setelah berhasil mengalahkan wakil Chinese Taipei Lu Ching Yao/Yang Po Han dalam pertandingan dua gim langsung 21-19 dan 21-15.
The world number one pair will then come down to face Malaysia's Goh Sze Fei/Nur Izzuddin to try to secure a ticket to the semifinals.
On paper, Fajar/Rian are quite favored to advance to the next round. This is because in the previous eight meetings they had a 7-1 win-loss record over the 46th ranked pair in the world.
The only defeat that Fajar/Rian had suffered had occurred a long time ago, namely at the Denmark Open 2021. At that time the Indonesian pair was made helpless in two straight games.
