JAKARTA Half of the number of Indonesian representatives who appeared at the Korea Open 2024 managed to pass the first round and got a ticket to the round of 16.

This assurance follows the failure of mixed doubles Dejan Ferdinansyah/Gloria Emanuelle Widjaja which lost 16-21, 21-11, and 7-21 against the Chinese Taipei pair, Ye Hong Wei/Nicole Gonzales Chan, on Wednesday, August 28, 202, evening WIB.

"The results of the match at the Korea Open 2024 are not what we expected. Of course we are not satisfied. Moreover, the difference in points in the third game is also far away," Gloria said after the match.

This defeat extends Dejan/Gloria's poor record in the two latest tournaments. Last week while playing at the Japan Open 2024, their steps also ran aground in the first round.

At that time they fell in a rubber game against representatives of Thailand, Rutanapak Oupthong/Jhenicha Sudjaipraparat.

"After losing in the early stages of the Japan Open 2024 tournament, now at the Korea Open 2024. The evaluation to each individual. What homework and what needs. The rest is just what pattern of play will be applied in the middle of the field," said Gloria.

Dejan/Gloria are one of three Indonesian representatives who fell in the first round of the Korea Open 2024 today. Two representatives with similar fates were Chico Aura Dwi Wardoyo and Ester Nurumi Tri Wardoyo.

The three representatives who received tickets to the second round were Rehan Naufal Kusaharjanto/Lisa Ayu Kusumawati, Leo Rolly Carnando/Bagas Maulana, and Muhammad Shohibul Fikri/Daniel Marthin.

In the second round, Thursday, August 29, 2024, Leo/Bagas will meet representatives of Malaysia, Nur Mohd Azriyn Ayub Azriyn/Tan Wee Kiong. Then, Fikri/Daniel meet representatives of China Taipei, Fang Chih Lee/Fang Jen Lee. Finally, Rehan/Lisa meets the South Korean pair, Kim Won-ho/Jeong Na-eun.
