The first game ended with a score of 21-8 within 11 minutes, then the second game ended with the same score, namely 21-8. Apart from Gregoria, Indonesia's badminton mixed doubles Praveen Jordan/Melati Daeva Oktavianti also made achievements by winning silver medals in the same event.
For the achievements made by Indonesian sports patriots from badminton at the 2023 Spain Masters, the Central KONI chairman congratulated him.
"Congratulations to the athletes who have succeeded in presenting achievements for Indonesia. Thank you for the hard work of the athletes who won the championship or not, then thank you to the coaching team, officials and of course the Indonesian Badminton Association (PBSI)," Marciano said as quoted by Antara, Monday.
"PBSI under the leadership of Mr. Dr. Agung Firman Sampurna has worked hard to take athletes to win the champion who makes their beloved country proud. Hopefully in the future this achievement can be maintained and even improved,"
"I hope that Gregoria's achievements can be repeated at international singles/multi events, such as the SEA Games, Asian Games and the Olympics. Likewise, our mixed doubles, Praveen Jordan/Melati Daeva, I'm sure it can be better in the future," he added.
