JAKARTA - Women's doubles Apriyani Rahayu / Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti is a new pair.

However, they are now starting to be taken into account in the ranks of the world's women's doubles.

Apri and Fadia made their debut as a couple since the 2021 SEA Games last May.

Fadia is paired with Apriyani to replace the retired Greysia Polii.

Even though they are a new pair, Apri/Fadia have managed to make their opponents from higher rankings start to feel helpless.

Most recently, they beat the seeds to win the Malaysia Open 2022.

This title is certainly so meaningful to a new couple like them and not seeded.

This title is their second title after getting a gold medal at the SEA Games Hanoi.

Here are the top 5 opponents that Apri/Fadia have beaten:

1. Jongkolphan Kititharakul/Rawinda Prajongjai

The Thai pair are now ranked eighth in the BWF world. They are the first tough opponents faced by Apriyani/Fadia.

They met in the quarter-finals of the 2021 SEA Games. At that time Apriyani/Fadia managed to advance to the semifinals after winning with a score of 21-15 and 22-20.

2. Lee So Hee/Shin Seung Chan

It is the world's third-ranked women's doubles in the current BWF rankings. They met Apriyani/Fadia in the last eight of the Indonesia Masters 2022.

At that time Apriyani/Fadia had to fight in three sets to reach the semifinals of the Super 500 tournament.

3. Tan Pearly/Thinaah Muralitharan

Still at the Indonesia Masters 2022. Apriyani/Fadia again faced a tough opponent in the semifinals after defeating Lee So Hee/Shin Seung Chan.

However, they were able to beat the Malaysian pair who were ranked 10th in the world. Unfortunately, their steps ran aground in the final after being defeated by Chen Qingchen / Jia Yifan.

Apriyani/Fadia managed to avenge this defeat when they met the Chinese pair again in the semifinals of the Malaysia Open 2022.

4. Mayu Matsumoto/Wakana Nagahara

Matsumoto/Nagahara met Apriyani and Fadia in the first round of the Indonesia Open last month. At that time, the world's sixth ranked gave up three sets to their opponent.

5. Nami Matsuyama/Chiharu Shida

The All England 2022 champion has become one of the victims of Apriyani/Fadia since their debut last May. Their defeat suffered when they met Apriyani/Fadia in the second round of the Malaysia Open.
