JAKARTA Gregoria Mariska Tunjung was eliminated from the Denmark Open 2024 after suffering an injury when she met the first seed from South Korea, An Se Young, in the semifinals.

The bronze medalist at the 2024 Paris Olympics could not continue the game when the second game was in a 12-12 draw on Saturday, 19 October evening WIB.

Gregoria, who lost 20-22 in the first game, started the second game well. He had a far ahead of six points 8-2 before starting to catch up and then injury.

An Se Young had scored six consecutive points to identify the score to 9-9 in that period. He was then slightly adrift of one point at the interval.

Unfortunately, the exciting duel between the two players could no longer be continued. Gregoria was seen complaining of pain in her knees and leaving the field in a wheelchair.

This result made Gregoria fail to improve a bad record against An Se Young. In the previous eight clashes, the 2017 junior world champion never won once.

Before Gregoria, Indonesia had also lost Putri Kusuma Wardani. The 22-year-old badminton player was eliminated after being stopped by the second seed from China, Wang Zhi Yi.

The women's singles duo error makes Indonesia now just have to hope for the men's doubles pair Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto.

The 2024 All England champions will play tonight against the host's second seed, namely the pair Kim Astrup/Anders Skaarup Rasmussen.
