JAKARTA The completion of the 2023 China Masters badminton tournament last week also changed several positions for Indonesian badminton players in the BWF rankings.

In this event, a total of 14 Indonesian representatives appeared. However, none of them penetrated the final round and brought home the Super 750 BWF level tournament title.

One of those participating was the men's doubles Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto. The pair who became the fourth seed returned home in the second half.

Unable to do much in China made Fajar/Rian slump one place in the BWF rankings. They are now sitting in fifth position with a collection of 86,829 points.

Hendra Setiawan/Mohammad Ahsan also experienced the same fate after failing in the first round of a similar tournament. This veteran couple dropped one place to 10th place.

The men's singles sector, the badminton player whose position was also shifted was Jonatan Christie. The 26-year-old badminton player did not appear in the 2023 China Masters so he fell into fourth position.

In the same number, Anthony Sinisuka Ginting remained in second place. He is behind the world number one men's singles from Denmark, Viktor Axelsen.

An unchanged position was also experienced by the women's singles Gregoria Mariska Tunjung. She is now ranked seventh in the world or six positions behind An Se-young.

Indonesia's mainstay women's doubles, Apriyani Rahayu/Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti, is also immovable. The couple, who stopped in the second round of the 2023 China Masters, is still in seventh place.

Finally, Indonesia's mixed doubles don't have representatives in the top ten in the world. However, the three outside representatives remained in their respective positions.

In a row there were Rinov Rivaldy/Pitha Haningtyas Mentari on the 15th ladder, Dejan Ferdinansyah/Gloria Emanuelle Widjaja in 18th position, and Rehan Naufal Kusharjanto/Lisa Ayu Kusumawati in 20th place.
