Jakarta – Indonesia and China will be present in the final of the Uber Cup 2024, which will be played on Sunday, May 5, 2024 in Chengdu, China. On paper, the country’s bamboo contingent is the favorite.

Because this time they are not just hosts. In terms of team strength, China is also superior to Indonesia. However, this does not mean that the red and white representatives cannot be optimistic.
In the history of the Uber Cup, Indonesia has faced China a total of five times. Two of them were for Indonesian badminton players.

These victories came in the 1994 (Jakarta) and 1998 (Hong Kong) Uber Cup finals. Meanwhile, the remaining three were won by China in 1986 (Jakarta), 1998 (Hong Kong) and 2008 (Jakarta).

China’s status as a major power in women’s badminton in the world can be seen in the number of Uber Cup titles. They have recorded it 15 times in 19 appearances in finals, with data from 1984, 1986, 1988, 1990, 1992, 1998, 2000, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2008, 2012, 2014 and 2011.
Meanwhile, Indonesia, which has reached the final 10 times, has won three. The title was first won in 1975 and was won again in 1994 and 1996.
The 28-year absence of an Uber Cup title for Indonesia is certainly a motivation for Apriyani Rahayu and her friends. Their fight will surely be tough.
The intense duel in the semi-final against South Korea definitely dampened the energy of the Indonesian badminton players. They should immediately prepare their best physical shape to fight against China.
“The team has a team of physiotherapists and masseuses who are ready to help me recover faster,” said Indonesian singles player Esther Nurumi Tri Vardoyo.
