"They are more consistent and we die a lot on our own so that it makes them more confident," said Apri after the match.

Apri/Fadia's defeat made Indonesia's representatives who had confirmed themselves to qualify for Paris only one remained at the Indonesia Open 2024.

The only Indonesian representatives who will play in the 2024 Paris Olympics and still survive in the Super 1000 BWF event are the women's singles Gregoria Mariska Tunjung.
