Ahsan/Hendra’s Important Supplies in the Round of 16

Nusa Dua

Double veteran Mohammad Ahsan/Hendra Setiawan smoothly track the big 16 Indonesia Masters 2021. The Daddies get important provisions for the next match.

Hendra/Ahsan won straight games over French doubles Toma Junior Popov/Christo Popov, in a match at the Bali International Convention Center, Wednesday (17/11/2021). The second seed won 21-17 and 21-14.

This positive start was accompanied by important information for navigating the Indonesia Masters 2021. Hendra admitted that the shuttlecock glided rather slowly, so the players had to be more patient in chasing points.

“Yes, today is the first match, the opponent is not easy. There was a lot of competition in the first set, but we really have to be more patient playing here because the ball is also a bit heavy, so we have to be really patient, we can’t beat it to death, said Hendra Setiawan.

Furthermore, in the second round or the last 16, Ahsan/Hendra will face Japanese doubles Takuro Hoki/Yugo Kobayashi. The pair, who are both 26 years old, have just won the 2021 Denmark Open and are in pretty good momentum.

“I think the opportunity to win is equally there, yes. Maybe later we will evaluate again with the coach, what kind of strategy do you want,” continued Ahsan.

“And for tomorrow the important thing is that we can be more focused and more patient, because as Koh Hendra said earlier the ball is a bit slow. So you can’t kill your opponent in a hurry, you just have to be patient,” he added.
