JAKARTA - Indonesian mixed doubles, Praveen Jordan/Melati Daeva Oktavianti announced that they had withdrawn from the round of 16 of the Indonesia Open 2022. This news was announced shortly before the match against representatives of Malaysia, Chen Tang Jie/Valeree Sio.

The couple from PB Djarum resigned because Praveen Jordan's back injury recurred. Mixed doubles coach, Vita Marissa, said that Praveen had been feeling uncomfortable since Thursday morning.

Vita revealed that Praveen had a pinched nerve. This injury has been experienced since the Asian Championships earlier this year.

"(Praveen) Jordan this morning experienced pain that he also felt at the Asian Championship yesterday, it recurred. Indeed, after the Asian championship we checked, there was a term for low back pain, so there was a pinched nerve," said Vita Marissa in a statement received by VOI on Thursday, June 16 at noon WIB.

So far Praveen continues to receive a series of treatments. In order to speed up the recovery process, Praveen even continues to use a special corset to support his back so as not to aggravate the injury.

"He has been wearing a corset with an iron. But if there is a problem with illness or injury, it goes back to the athlete. I don't dare to force it," he said.

Vita reiterated that she had time to confirm the condition of her teammates after the Asian Championships. However, with the opportunity to appear in Indonesia, Praveen confidently said he was ready to perform.

"Before the Indonesia Masters, they were also asked whether they were ready or not? He said it was okay. Maybe because he wanted to play in front of the public himself. When he played, there were no problems yesterday," he said.
