JAKARTA The men's doubles pair Leo Rolly Carnando/Daniel Marthin were immediately eliminated in the first round of the 2024 India Open after being beaten by Rasmus Kjaer/Frederik Sogaard.

Leo/Daniel failed to extend their trip to the Super 750 BWF event after losing two straight games 18-21 and 19-21 against the Danish representative on Tuesday, January 16, 2024, WIB night.

Leo said this result extended their disappointment because previously at the Malaysia Open 2024 last week their journey ran aground in the second half.

"Disappointed because our performances are not as expected. Since last week at the Malaysia Open 2024, we have not found the rhythm we want. We will try again in the next match," he said.

This result is revenge for Rasmus/Frederik who have lost against Leo/Daniel in their only previous meeting at Thailand Masters 2023.

"We have tried with all the attacks, but we admit the opponent's defense is very good today, as well as overall. While we are not patient," said Daniel.

Previously, Indonesia had secured two tickets to the second half. Each of the women's singles Gregoria Mariska Tunjung and the men's doubles pair Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto.

Fajar/Rian will be against Rasmus/Frederik in the second round. This will be the first competitive clash for the two pairs.
