JAKARTA - Indonesia certainly does not have representatives in the final round of the Denmark Open 2024 after the men's doubles pair Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto fell.
The 2024 All England champions lost rubber games 20-22, 21-18, and 11-21 against host doubles Kim Astrup/Anders Skaarup Rasmussen on Saturday, October 19, 2024.
Fajar/Rian actually appeared dominant in the first game. They even had the lead 20-17, but the opponent got up and scored five consecutive points.
In the second game, the duel went much tighter. Fajar/Rian were forced to take care of their advantage after a 15-15 draw.
During the deciding game, Fajar/Rian's appearance was sluggish. After rising to equalize the score 2-2, their points stalled and the opponent was comfortable until they locked the win.
This defeat made Fajar/Rian's winning record against the pair 3-5. This is their second clash this year.
