Jakarta

After the 2023 Asian Games, the Indonesian badminton team immediately shifted its focus to the European tour. This is an opportunity for Anthony Sinisuka Ginting et al to rise.

The failure of the Indonesian badminton team in Asian Games 2023 Hangzhou was a hard blow for PBSI. Targeting three gold medals, the Indonesian badminton team went home without a single medal.

This failure was the worst for PBSI since the sport of tepok bulu was competed in 1962 at the Asian Games. Reflecting on this failure, PBSI itself has carried out an evaluation and attempted to correct all deficiencies.

However, they cannot continue to dwell on their failures, considering that the PBSI Pelatnas badminton athletes are waiting for the BWF tournament, which is also an event for collecting points for the 2024 Paris Olympics. The closest ones are the Denmark Open on 17-22 October and the French Open on 24-29 October .

The athletes are scheduled to leave for Denmark aboard Turkish Airlines – TK0057, this Saturday (14/10) evening.

“The condition of the team is all fit and good. They are used to busy schedules like this, so yesterday after returning from the Asian Games they immediately focused on practicing, correcting deficiencies,” said PBSI’s Head of Achievement Development, Rionny Mainaky, in a quick quote via PBSI, Saturday (14/ 10/2023).

“This is their opportunity to play even better. I hope they can compete again with a fierce fighting spirit, all out and willing to win,” he said.

Meanwhile, women’s singles Gregoria Mariska Tunjung said the current conditions were okay, even though the preparation distance was quite short.

“Hopefully yesterday’s defeat can be a motivation for this tour, because yesterday’s defeat at the Asian Games was quite difficult for me, so I want to forget about that and have a better target,” emphasized Gregoria.
