SINGAPORE, SUNDAY — The Indonesian badminton team took home three titles from the 2022 Singapore Open despite injuries. This success was thanks to the steely determination of two injured Indonesian shuttlers. They fought pain throughout the game to make the Red and White proud when there was an option to withdraw from the final which took place on Sunday (17/7/2022).
The three titles were obtained by the women's doubles Apriyani Rahayu/Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti who defeated the Chinese doubles, Zhang Shu Xian/Zheng Yu, 21-14, 21-17; men's doubles Leo Rolly Carnando/Daniel Marthin who won 9-21, 21-14, 21-16 over fellow Indonesian-shuttlers Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto; and men's singles Anthony Sinisuka Ginting who won 23-21, 21-17 over Kodai Naraoka of Japan.
