Badminton News: Incomplete healing process has made Indonesia's top women's doubles, Apriyani Rahayu / Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti decide to withdraw from the prestigious season-opening tournament, the Malaysia Open World Tour Super 1000 next week and the India Open World Tour Super 750 the following week.

Not only the Malaysian Open, Apriyani/Fadia were also withdrawn from the 2024 Indian Open in New Delhi and are expected to make a comeback at the Indonesia Masters World Tour Super 500 home tournament in Istora Senayan Jakarta .
“So I have decided to withdraw Apri/Fadia's participation in the 2024 Malaysia and India Open next week,” Didi added.

Apart from Apriyani/Fadia, the women's doubles also trying to qualify for the prestigious quadrennial championship are Febriana Dwipuji Kusuma/Amalia Cahaya Pratiwi who are currently ranked 18th in the world.
