Mohammad Ahsan and Hendra Setiawan rolled back the years with a sublime show at the DAIHATSU
Indonesia Masters, entering the title round with a sample of the skills that won them the World Championships at the Istora Senayan in 2015.
Ahsan and Setiawan (featured image) befuddled their young Chinese opponents Han Chengkai and Zhou Haodong in today’s men’s doubles semifinal. The soft dabs, the clever placements, the quickfire drives, the tight serve-returns… all were in place as the Indonesians wrapped their opponents in a constricting web. Given few opportunities to attack, Han and Zhou unravelled in just 28 minutes, 21-11 21-17.
