“So yesterday afternoon, we had time to practice at the practice court. Jonathan also followed the training program well,” said Irwansyah, as seen by detikSport on PBSI’s social media account.

“But that afternoon Jonathan suddenly vomited in his room. Then we consulted with the PBSI doctor and finally he was taken to the hospital.”

“This morning, his condition has improved but he is still weak, so we decided to withdraw,” said Irwansyah.
