JAKARTA - Indonesian men's singles badminton player, Anthony Ginting, has now managed to rank third in the world in the latest BWF rankings. Ginting shifts fellow Pelatnas, Jonatan Christie.

Previously, Jonathan Christie had been in that position for the last two weeks. However, from the results of the BWF update after the Malaysia Open 2023 as of January 17, almost all the men's badminton players experienced a change in position.

From the official BWF website, Ginting now collects 76,299 points from the original 75,749 points. This increase was achieved by the PBSI athlete because he managed to penetrate the quarter-finals at the Malaysia Open 2023.

Apart from Ginting, who moved up and shifted Jonatan Christie to fifth place, the positive changes were also achieved by the pair Apriyani Rahayu/Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti. The women's doubles is now in the ranks of five in the world.

The point is that both of them increased sharply to 70,300 from the original 61,900 after reaching the semifinals of the Malaysia Open 2023. Apriyani/Fadia have even reached the marginal round, but the injuries suffered by Fadia forced them to withdraw when the game had entered the second game and the score ended 9-21, 0-2.

From the men's doubles sector, a significant increase also occurred in Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo/Marcus Fernaldi Gideon and Pramudya Kusuma Wardana/Yeremia Rambitan. They got a four-tier increase and now they are ranked 19 and 20, respectively.

Meanwhile Bagas Maulana/Muhammad Shohibul Fikri and Leo Rolly Carnando/Daniel Marthin fell one level and are now in 12th and 15th positions. For Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto and Hendra Setiawan/Mohammad Ahsan remain in the first and second places in the world.

From the women's singles sector, Gregoria Mariska Tunjung and mixed doubles Rinov Rivaldy/Phita Haningtyas Mentari and Rehan Naufal Kusharjanto/Lisa Ayu Kusumawati did not experience a change in ranking from the previous week.

A surprise was made by Dejan Ferdinansyah/Gloria Emanuelle Widjaja. The non-level athletes were able to penetrate the top 16 BWF position, whereas previously they were ranked 19th.
