Jakarta, Beritasatu.com – Indonesian men’s doubles Mohammad Ahsan/Hendra Setiawan will be challenged by United States (US) doubles who made it through the top 32 qualifying round of the Canada Open on Wednesday (5/7/2023 ).

Indonesia only sent Ahsan/Hendra to the championship held at the Markin MacPhail Center, in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Ahsan/Hendra will meet with US representatives, Chen Zhi Yi/Presley Smith.

Chen and Smith qualified for the main draw after defeating the hosts’ double Hooman Bagheri/Derek Yu 21-10, 21-13. Ahsan/Hendra never met the American couple. As the world’s second-ranked duo, Ahsan/Hendra are definitely the favorites in this game.

Ahsan/Hendra vs. Chen/Smith will be played on Court 4 as the second game. The first game at this field will begin on Wednesday (5/7/2023) at 10:10 a.m. Canadian time or 11:10 p.m. WIB.

Indonesia only sent men’s duo Ahsan/Hendra to the Super 500 level which will be held from July 4-9, 2023.

The absence of Pelatnas PBSI players from the tournament with a total prize pool of US$420,000 is not without reason.

“PBSI does not send players to Canada. We want players to focus on Korea (Korean Open), Japan (Japan Open) and Australia (Australian Open),” said PR and Media Manager Broto Happy to Beritasatu.comMonday (26/6/2023).

The Korea Open 2023 will take place from July 18-23, followed by the Japan Open from July 25-30 and the Australian Open (August 1-6, 2023).

So far, Ahsan/Hendra failed to win the title in 2024. Last time, the Indonesian veteran men’s doubles managed to become the runners-up at the All England Open 2023. At that time, Ahsan/Hendra were beaten by their compatriots, namely Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto.

Last time The Daddies competed at Indonesia Open 2023.
