JAKARTA Indonesia managed to send as many as six representatives to the quarter-finals of the Malaysia Masters 2023. Most representatives came from men's doubles.
The men's doubles total number has two representatives in the top eight of the Super 500 BWF level event. They are Leo Rolly Carnando/Daniel Marthin and Hendra Setiawan/Mohammad Ahsan.
Leo/Daniel, who were the eighth seed, qualified after defeating Chinese men's doubles He Ji Ting/Zhou Hao Dong in a match he played straight away.
"Today we can implement the strategy properly. Meanwhile, the opponent cannot be separated from our rhythm, pattern and pressure, but we were not without problems. We also have to work hard because the ball is slow," said Daniel.
Furthermore, Leo/Daniel will face the second seed host Aaron Chia/Soh Wooi Yik. On paper Aaron/Soh won 5-1 over the Indonesian pair.
Meanwhile, Hendra/Ahsan extended their trip in Malaysia after stopping the Chinese Taipei pair Lee Jhe-Huei/Yang Po-Hsuan.
The Daddies will next face non-seeded host Man Wei Chong/Kai Wun Tee. Hendra/Ahsan have so far won 1-0 after winning at the Singapore Open last year.
Meanwhile, the other four tickets secured by Indonesia were the women's singles Gregoria Mariska Tunjung, the men's singles Christian Adinata, the women's doubles Apriyani Rahayu/Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti, and the mixed doubles Rinov Rivaldy/Pitha Haningtyas Mentari.
Gregoria will meet second seed China Wang Zhi Yi, Christian Adinata in conflict with representatives of India Kidambi Srikanth, and Apri/Fadia who are the second seed to meet fifth seed Korea Jeong Na Eun/Kim Hye Jeong.
Meanwhile, Rinov/Pitha will face Korea's third seed Seo Seung Jae/Chae Yu Jung. So far, Rinov/Pitha lost head to head to lose 0-4.
