This year couldn’t have been more different. While things haven’t exactly turned against them – they made the quarterfinals of the last two events before crashing out of the second round today at the EAST VENTURES Indonesia Open 2022 – they have appeared somewhat off-key.
The Chinese Taipei pair had a vacant look in their eyes as they contemplated today’s defeat to young Indonesians Pramudya Kusumawardana/Yeremia Erich Yoche Yacob Rambitan.
The Indonesians, flying high with the crowd behind them, always had their opponents under pressure in the third game, leading from start to finish.
