JAKARTA - The 2022 BWF World Tour Finals tournament enters its second day, Thursday, December 8. Jonathan Christie will try to get up to win on the second day.

The previous day, the player who is familiarly called Jojo lost to his compatriot, Anthony Sinisuka Ginting. In the second match, he will face Loh Kean Yew.

The Indonesian men's singles must win in order to maintain hope of qualifying for the semifinals of the 2022 World Tour Finals.

According to meeting records published on the official website of the Badminton World Federation (BWF) as reported by Antara, Jonathan has a clear advantage by sweeping all the wins out of the five matches he has played against Loh.

However, in the agenda for the year-end tournament which took place on December 7-11, Jonatan, who is in Group B of the 2022 WTF preliminary round, has yet to record a winning point. The second seeded badminton player from Taiwan, Chou Tien Chen, also suffered the same fate as Jonathan, who was in the lowest position.

In addition, Loh helped secure his position with Ginting in the men's singles Group B standings with one winning point after defeating Chou in Wednesday's match.

Of the six matches on the first day, Jonathan was also the only one of the seven Indonesian representatives who had not been fortunate to gain their first victory.
