JAKARTA - Apriyani Rahayu has recovered from a calf injury and is ready to appear at the 2021 SEA Games Hanoi. The women's doubles specialist badminton player is expected to be fit when appearing in the two-year event.

The confirmation regarding Apriyani's current condition was conveyed by the Head of the Development and Achievement Division of PBSI Riony Mainaky when receiving a visit from the Chef de Mission (CdM) of the Indonesian contingent on Tuesday, April 19 morning.

"It's been very good, the movement is normal. I asked the coach, he's very ready," said Rionny at the Cipayung National Training Center, East Jakarta, on Tuesday, April 19, 2022.

The information conveyed by Riony was reinforced by PBSI's upload on their official Instagram. In the upload, Apri looks to have been practicing with his colleagues.

This is the first training the athlete from Southeast Sulawesi has undergone after suffering an injury in the second round of the 2022 All England championship in March. The injury kept the 23-year-old athlete out of the Swiss and Korean Opens.

"So, I hope he is in the most fit condition for the SEA Games," said Riony.

Apriyani and her friends are targeted to bring home three gold medals from badminton in the event which will take place from 12-23 May.

In the women's sector, PBSI sent full strength for this year's edition. Apart from Apriyani, the national badminton parent also sent names such as Putri Kusuma Wardani and Gregoria Mariska Tunjung.
