Indonesia Open: India's Challenge Ends With Satwik-Chirag's QF Loss
Man Wei Chong: The former champions Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty bowed out of the Indonesia Open, a BWF Super 1000 badminton tournament, with a straight game loss in the men's doubles quarterfinal to Malaysian seventh seeds Man Wei Chong and Kai Wun Tee here on Friday.
Satwik-Chirag, who had reached the semifinals of the Singapore Open Super 750 last week, suffered a 19-21, 16-21 loss at the hands of World No. 7 Chong and Tee at the Istora Senayan. This was the Malaysian's first win against Satwik-Chirag in five meetings.
The World No. 22 pair were the last Indian contention at the Super 1000 tournament in Jakarta after two-time Olympic medallist PV Sindhu and women's doubles pair of Treesa Jolly and Gayatri Gopichand crashed out in the second round.
