JAKARTA Unsatisfactory results in early 2023 made the pair Apriyani Rahayu/Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti very motivated to aim for the Asian Mixed Team Badminton Championships (BATC) and All England 2023.

BATC will take place on February 14-19 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Meanwhile, All England, the oldest event in the world of badminton, will take place on the same date the following month.

"For the Asian Mixed Team Badminton Championships, we prepared well and after that there was All England. The two tournaments are now the focus," said Apri as reported by Antara.

Apri/Fadia actually had a great opportunity to win their first title this year when they performed at the Malaysia Open last month. Unfortunately, their opportunity at the event was even disturbed by an ankle injury experienced by Fadia in the semifinals match.

This problem made them have to miss the next championship at the India Open which is at the Super 750 BWF level. Fadia, who recovered quickly, then opened up opportunities for the two to appear at home at the Indonesia Masters which took place at Istora.

However, in this Super 500 event, their journey was stuck in the quarter-finals. They had to go home early after being beaten by Thai pair Jongkolphan Kititharakul/Rawinda Prajongjai.

"Indeed, everything is a process, we want to get a medal or not, everyone needs a lesson. So how do we arrange it by our side," said Apri, who wants to aim for the inaugural title at All England.

The big target installed in the two upcoming tournaments is inseparable from Fadia's condition, which has improved 100 percent. In addition, they have also been equipped with an evaluation of the weaknesses they continue to do.

Apri mengatakan bahwa kekuatan, pola permainan, hingga kesalahan sendiri menjadi poin yang perlu menjadi perhatian. Kemudian pola permainan mereka yang sudah mulai terbacap lawan pun masuk dalam daftar pekerjaan rumah buat pasangan ini.

"Technically the most powerful, continue the pattern of play on the ground how, realize where the error is. We are not specific about the shortcomings, but already know what each one should improve," said Apri.

"When it comes to our strength, we are still powerful, only the opponent already knows where our weak point is. When we were newly paired and continued to win, they already knew that we were good at power. Our type was like that," he added.
