JAKARTA - Meilysa Trias Puspitasari/Rachel Alllessya Rose's women's doubles pair failed to reach the 2025 Taipei Open final.

Their dream of winning the title evaporated after giving up two straight games 14-21 and 19-21 against the Japanese pair, Mizuki Orange/Miyu Takahashi, at Taipei Arena on Saturday, May 10, 2025.

The eighth seed was helpless in the first game even though he had led 3-2. The Japanese pair scored seven points after that and continued to excel.

Meilysa/Rachel then started the second game well, scoring three points in a row. However, the opponent immediately chased and turned one point ahead at the interval.

The game was dramatic and chasing numbers was inevitable afterward. Meilysa/Rachel even had a 19-17 lead to keep expectations, but unfortunately Mizuki/Miyu were able to make a comeback with four consecutive points.

From this tournament, it is certain that Indonesia already has one title after the mixed doubles Dejan Ferdinansyah/Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti and Jafar Hidayatullah/Felisha Alberta Nathaniel Pasaribu compactly hit the final round.

Dejan/Fadia first reached the final after stopping Japan's representative, Yuichi Shimogami/Sayaka Hobara, through the two straight games 21-19 and 21-17.

Meanwhile, Jafar/Felisha, who are the fourth seed, followed suit thanks to a 21-11 and 21-15 victory over Malaysia's representative, Chen Tang Jie/Chan Wen Tse.

The final round of the BWF Super 300 tournament will take place on Sunday, May 11 tomorrow. Dejan/Fadia vs Jafar/Felisha will be the opening match.
