The 2025 World Championships Gregoria Advances to the Round of 32

iMSPORT.TV – Gregoria Mariska Tunjung has successfully advanced to the round of 64 of the 2025 Badminton World Championships. The Indonesian women’s singles player defeated Czech Republic representative Petra Maixnerova 21-10, 21-9, at the Adidas Arena in Paris, France, on Monday (August 25).

There were still a few adjustments in today’s game, and I played quite well. The shuttlecocks, the court, and the conditions were similar to last year’s Olympics, and the weather was also the same,” said Gregoria after the match.

Gregoria admitted that there are still several things that need improvement in the next match. “What I need to reduce is the attacks that are too sharp and rushed,” she said.

“I’m trying to create a positive atmosphere here so that my game can improve. Because this is a major championship, and of course, I have a goal to achieve the best.”

In the round of 32 of the 2025 BWF World Championships, Gregoria will face Julie Dawall Jakobsen. The Danish women’s singles player defeated Milena Schnider of Switzerland 21-10, 21-16.

Several other Indonesian players will compete on the second day of the round of 64 of the 2025 BWF World Championships, including men’s singles player Anthony Sinisuka Ginting, who will face young French player Toma Junior Popov.

Furthermore, another Indonesian men’s singles player, Jonatan Christie, will also compete on the second day. Jojo will face his first test against Germany’s Matthias Kicklitz.

Men’s doubles will feature Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto and Leo Rolly Carnando/Bagas Maulana in the round of 32. Fajar/Rian are scheduled to play against Hung Kuei Chun/Lui Chun Wai (Hong Kong) in the third match on Court 4, which will also be their first meeting.

Meanwhile, Leo/Bagas will face French representatives, Éloi Adam/Leo Rossi, in the seventh match on Court 1. Like Fajar/Rian, Leo/Bagas have never faced them before.

In the women’s doubles, Febriana Dwipuji Kusuma/Amallia Cahaya Pratiwi will face Julie MacPherson/Ciara Torrance in the round of 32. Febriana/Amallia achieved a victory over the Scottish pair in the round of 32 at the Denmark Open.

Rinov Rivaldy/Pitha Haningtyas Mentari will face Lu Ming Che/Hung En-Tzu (Chinese Taipei) in the round of 64. There has been no previous meeting between the two pairs.

Victory is certainly the ambition of the Indonesian players playing today. But the match may not be easy. This also applies to Ginting, who is trying to shake off his poor performance against Popov at the 2024 Olympics.
