In this match, the Slovenian International 2022 champion admitted that he could better control the arena where there was a lot of wind. It is no surprise that the 2022 Alps International U19 champion pair were able to win two matches in a row against the women’s doubles ranked 201st in the world in 37 minutes.
“In this match, we controlled the game more. When the opponent has difficulty dealing with the gusts of wind, we try to be more patient,” explained Rachel.

“Facing a compatriot it is not easy given that they often train together and therefore know each other’s strengths and weaknesses. We see that the opponent is also quite good in offering us resistance in this match,” Rachel added.
With this victory, Meilysa Trias Puspitasari/Rachel Allessya Rose will face the Indian representatives, Tanisha Crasto/Ashwini Ponnappa, in the quarter-finals. Facing the pair ranked 58th in the world, Meilysa/Rachel were determined to be carefree in order to continue progressing in the BWF Tour Super 100 tournament.
“Against Tanisha/Ashwini, we are determined to play freely, without any burden, so that we can give the best results,” Rose said.
The brilliance of Meilysa/Rachel unfortunately could not be followed by Ridya Aulia Fatasya/Kelly Larissa. The two men, ranked 110th in the world, came to an abrupt halt after losing in the round of 16 to Chinese Taipei representatives Hung En-Tzu/Lin Yu-Pei, with a score of 17-21, 22-24 .
“In this match, we were under pressure from the opponent from the start of the match. We are not focused so that at the end of the match the points can be overtaken and lost,” concluded Ridya.
