"This decision was taken after seeing the quality and ability of Bernadyine in a technical, pattern of play, and chemistry that matches Dejan in the field," he said.
Dejan was previously withdrawn to the PBSI National Training Center earlier this year to be paired with Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti. He and Fadia then debuted at the India Open in January 2025.
Total overall Dejan/Fadia played together in 11 tournaments. In that range, their best achievement was two runners-up, consecutively at Thailand Masters and Taipei Open 2025.
Dejan/Fadia played their last tournament as a couple at the Indonesia Open 2025. This separation makes Fadia now focus on women's doubles with Lanny Tria Mayasari.
Dejan/Bernadine plan to start the championship tour at the Vietnam Open Super 100 on 9-14 September 2025 and the Indonesia Masters Super 100 on 16-21 September 2025.
