JAKARTA - Men's singles Jonatan Christie defeated Danish representative Hans-Kristian Solberg Vittinghus to reach the second round of the 2022 French Open.
Jonathan made sure he escaped after winning two straight games 21-19 and 21-14 at the Stade Pierre de Coubertin on Tuesday, October 25 evening WIB.
This victory also sharpened Jonathan's winning-loss record over Vittinghus to 4-0. This is also Jonathan's second win over Vittinghus this month.
Previously, the owner of the 2018 Asian Games gold medal defeated him in the same round at the Denmark Open last week.
Jonathan will next face Hong Kong representatives Ng Ka Long Angus who qualified after overthrowing Chinese representative Zhao Jun Peng. On paper, Jonathan has a 4-5 win-loss record with Long Angus.
Apart from Jonathan, the ticket to the second half also managed to get the women's doubles Febriana Dwi Puji Kusuma/Amalia Cahaya Pratiwi. The pair won over representatives of Germany, Stine Kuespert/Emma Moszczynski, with a score of 18-21, 21-9, and 21-13.
Unfortunately, Jonathan and Febriana/Amalia's achievements cannot be followed by the men's doubles Hendra Setiawan/Mohammad Ahsan. The veteran couple had to go home early after being beaten by Chinese Taipei representative Lee Jhe-Huei/Yang Po-Hsuan two straight games 16-21 and 21-23.
Earlier at the Denmark Open last week, Hendra/Ahsan also returned early in the second half. At that time they also lost to representatives of Chinese Taipei, Lu Ching Yao/Yang Po Han.
"We admit that his performance was not optimal in two tournaments in a row. In Denmark and in France we had lost in the early rounds," Ahsan said after the match.
"Today our performance is also not good. While the opponent also played very well today. Our performance is not optimal. The opponent's attack can always penetrate."
"On the other hand, our defense is less solid. Every time we are attacked we have difficulties. The opponent also doesn't die easily," he added.
