Indonesian men’s doubles pair Leo Rolly Carnando/Bagas Maulana admitted that they did not want to be satisfied too quickly after winning the 2024 BWF Super 500 Korea Open tournament title, Sunday (1/9).
Leo/Bagas said they would immediately focus on preparing themselves to take part in the BWF Super 500 Hong Kong Open tournament and the BWF Super 1000 China Open tournament this month.
“After this we will focus again to face the next match in Hong Kong and China. Understandably after getting off the podium we can’t think about being champions all the time,” said Leo, after the final match of the Korea Open.
The new pair won their first title after two tournament appearances. Last week, Leo/Bagas ended their journey at the 2024 Japan Open in the semifinals, along with another new pair, Muhammad Shohibul Fikri/Daniel Marthin who were also making their debut at the BWF Super 750 tournament.
“Alhamdulillah can play well as desired and can appear as champions for the first time as a new pair. Last week at the Japan Open we were held in the semifinals and at the Korea Open we won,” said Leo.
“Alhamdulillah, I am very happy to be the champion of Korea Open. Finally we were able to break the egg after being dubbed the silver man. Today we can finally become the golden man. I am very grateful to be given the victory,” added Bagas.
Leo/Bagas won the 2024 Korea Open title after defeating the top seed and host’s mainstay Kang Min Hyuk/Seo Seung Jae 18-21, 21-9, 21-8. (Ant/M-3)
