Jakarta, CNN Indonesia —
Leo Rolly Carnando and Daniel Martin cheering happily after the championship title Indonesia Masters 2024 fell into their hands. Indonesia is also a little joyful in the midst of the existing pain.
Leo and Daniel were immersed in joy and relief after becoming champions of the Indonesia Masters 2024. Happy because they had won the title of champion of the Indonesia Masters 2024 and relieved because they could end their series of bad results in front of many supporters of the Indonesian Badminton Team at Istora.
In early 2024, the Indonesian Badminton Team is still going through a steep, dark journey. Failure seems like an alarm clock that is never really turned off. It sounds over and over again, demanding awareness.
After the Indonesian Badminton Team failed at the Malaysia Open, they actually performed consistently in a negative context at the India Open. Without representatives in the semifinals when competing in Malaysia, the same thing repeated in India.
The bad days in Malaysia and India were then brought by the Indonesian Badminton Team to the Indonesia Masters event. The Indonesian Badminton Team is really in a dangerous situation heading into this tournament.
First, a heavy burden was carried because he had failed to win twice in Malaysia and India. Not only did they fail to win, the Indonesian Badminton Team didn’t even have a representative in the semifinals when there were still 20 slots available.
Second, the Indonesia Masters is at the Super 500 level, below the Malaysia Open and India Open. A number of top players are absent and on paper the quality of the tournament and competition is certainly below the previous two tournaments.
The first challenge, presenting representatives in the semifinals, was passed well. Four representatives in the semifinals with a guarantee of one representative in the final.
However, in fact, Lanny Tria Mayasari/Ribka Sugiarto and Anthony Ginting fell in the semifinals. Leo/Daniel defeated Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto and advanced alone as Indonesia’s representatives in the top party.
Leo/Daniel’s burden of appearing in the top party is no joke. They bear the burden of the Indonesian Badminton Team which is still without a title in elite tournaments in early 2024 as a whole, as well as their own burden which is declining in the performance graph.
The opponents in front of them are also not random, Kim Astrup/Anders Skaarup Rasmussen. In the last few months, Astrup/Rasmussen have performed impressively so that their ranking continues to rise. At the Indonesia Masters he also sat as the second seed.
In the final which was full of tension, Leo/Daniel wasted match point in the second game. However, Leo/Daniel can be dominant and irresistible to win in the third game.

Leo/Daniel’s victory at the Indonesia Masters was a joy. However, this is just a small trickle of happiness amidst the heat of failure which still stings strongly.
The record of one title out of a total of 15 titles in the first three tournaments is certainly not a superior record. PBSI must realize that the crisis situation has not completely passed.
There is still a lot of homework waiting to be done, starting from the performances of Jonatan Christie and Anthony Ginting who were the victims of surprises to the mixed doubles squad which is increasingly far from expectations and expectations.
