JAKARTA The work of the men's singles badminton player, Alwi Farhan, at the Malaysia Masters 2024 Super 500 BWF event immediately ran aground in the qualifying round.

Alwi immediately lifted the suitcase from the tournament after giving up the rubber games 21-11, 13-21, and 18-22 against Danish representative Mads Christophersen, on Tuesday, May 21, 2024, Indonesian Western Time (WIB) afternoon.

This defeat made Alwi feel the need to immediately correct the many shortcomings that still existed in him.

"I am disappointed with the results. Earlier in the third game I was already ahead, but I couldn't maximize it to be a win. From this match it looks like I still have a lot of homework to do," said Alwi, the age of the match.

In the game, Alwi actually appeared very dominant over his opponent. The advantage of five points at the beginning brought him to defend his advantage until the final points.

However, six consecutive points against those times actually reversed the position to 17-19. Alwi could only add one point after that.

"When I was ahead, I played hesitant. I'm not sure. I should have turned off the opponent's ball, instead I didn't die. This is something that must be considered," said Alwi.

This is Alwi's second defeat against Mads. Previously at the Denmark Masters 2023, he lost two straight games.

"Unlike the first meeting, this time I was able to play rubber games. There was also a chance to win."

"However, I could not take advantage of the opportunity. I accept this defeat. I have to learn and train even harder," said Alwi.

Alwi is one of two Indonesian badminton players who started the struggle at the 2024 Malaysia Masters from the qualifying round. Another badminton player is Shesar Hiren Rhustavito.

Shesar himself has passed the first qualification after defeating India's representative, S. Sankar Muthusamy Subramanian.
