In a display of skill and resilience, Indonesia's top badminton athletes showcased their prowess in the Swiss Open 2024 finals, yet fell short of dominating the podium as hoped.

Gregoria Mariska Tunjung, Indonesia's lone female representative, faced a tough challenge in the final match, ultimately conceding victory to her formidable opponent.

With three representatives advancing to the finals, Indonesia initially held high hopes of clinching multiple titles. However, those aspirations were dashed as two Indonesian pairs faced defeat on the grand stage.

The duo of Muhammad Shohibul Fikri and Bagas Maulana, competing in the first match, suffered a setback against England's Ben Lane and Sean Vendy. Despite a valiant effort, Fikri and Bagas were unable to overcome their opponents' tenacity.

Following this setback, Indonesia managed to secure its first title through the women's doubles pair of Lanny Tria Mayasari and Ribka Sugiarto. In a thrilling three-game battle, Lanny and Ribka emerged victorious against Taiwan's Hsu Ya Ching and Lin Wan Ching, clinching the championship title.

However, the success of Lanny and Ribka was not mirrored by Gregoria Mariska Tunjung in the women's singles category. Facing off in the fourth match, Gregoria encountered a formidable opponent in Spain's Carolina Marin, who proved to be a formidable force on the court.

Despite Indonesia's mixed results in the finals, the nation's badminton players have once again demonstrated their skill and determination on the international stage. While the coveted titles may have eluded them this time, their performance serves as a testament to Indonesia's continued presence and competitiveness in the world of badminton.
