Inp.polri.go.id - Jakarta. The Indonesian Badminton Association (PBSI) said on Monday (17/3/2025) that it is evaluating its performance at the All England 2025 after failing to secure a title.
Indonesia’s only finalist, men’s doubles pair Leo Rolly Carnando/Bagas Maulana, finished as runners-up after losing 19-21, 19-21 to South Korea’s Kim Won-ho/Seo Seung-jae.
“We must appreciate the players' efforts. This result will serve as an evaluation to address weaknesses,” said PBSI’s Head of Development and Performance, Eng Hian, as quoted by antaranews.com..
Indonesia’s title drought at All England, excluding 2021 when the team withdrew due to COVID-19, marked a setback. Defending men’s singles champion Jonatan Christie exited in the second round, while Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto failed to complete a title hat-trick.
PBSI now shifts focus to the Swiss Open. Jonatan will skip the Swiss Open, prioritizing BWF-mandated tournaments.
