JAKARTA - Indonesian men's doubles, Hendra Setiawan/Mohammad Ahsan, qualified for the round of 16 of the Denmark Open 2022. They eliminated Lee Jhe-Huei/Yang PoOUTan.
In the inaugural match at Jyske Bank Arena, Odense Tuesday, October 18, Ahsan / Hendra won in two straight games with a score of 21-16, 21-15.
The Daddies were not immediately satisfied and evaluated their appearance in the match. Hendra/Ahsan felt they had to improve the game faster in the advanced round.
"Today's evaluation (of the last 32) of its movement must be accelerated, because we still felt it was too slow. And what is certain is that we have to attack first," said Hendra Setiawan as quoted from the official PBSI release.
Regarding his appearance against Taiwan's representatives, Hendra said the field conditions and shuttlecock were difficult to predict. Therefore, they must be able to excel in the game in front of the net.
"From the start we have prepared the front game. We have to hold on to the front field because the shuttlecock here is a bit unstable so it's difficult to control," he said.
This victory over Lee/Yang then took Hendra/Ahsan to meet another Taiwanese double, Lu Ching Yao/Yang Po Han, in the round of 16.
In this Denmark Open 2022 tournament, Hendra/Ahsan are in the top block with other Indonesian representatives, namely Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto. The two of them can meet in the quarter-finals if they both win the match in the second half.
