JAKARTA – The men's doubles pair Pramudya Kusumawardana/Yeremia Erich Yoche Yacob Rambitan are eyeing a gold medal at the Hanoi 2022 SEA Games. They have high motivation after coming out as champions at the Asian Championships.

Pramudya/Jeremiah won the Asian Championship title in early May. This achievement did not make them feel burdened in Vietnam, instead it became an injection of motivation to become champions again.

"There is no pressure, this is actually our motivation. After winning at the level equivalent to Super 1000, we want to win again at the SEA Games," said Yeremia in an official statement.

Pramudya/Jeremiah's preparations to face the SEA Games were good, even though in a short time. They had recovered their physical condition and stamina after being exhausted in the previous competition.

In Hanoi later, the world number 16 pair will occupy the first seed in the individual number. Meanwhile, their compatriots Leo Rolly Carnando/Daniel Martin are the second seed.

The main assistant men's doubles coach Aryono Miranat said that Leo/Daniel must also be motivated by the Pramudya/Yeremia and Bagas Maulana/Muhammad Shohibul Fikri championship titles at the All England.

"For Leo/Daniel, precisely that (Bagas/Fikri the All England champion and Pramudya/Yeremia the Asian champion) should be more of a motivation for them to compete with their colleagues in the national training," said Aryono.

In preparation, Leo/Daniel have more time. Their condition is better because they don't play in the Asian Championships.

The badminton branch of the SEA Games Vietnam 2021 will begin to be competed on May 16 to 22 at the Bac Giang Gymnasium in Bac Giang Province, Vietnam.
