OSAKA International Challenge 2012 (4th-8th April 2012)

It's not gonna be an all-INA FINAL in XD

XD FINAL
Takeshi Kamura/Yonemoto Koharu [3] vs Riky Widianto/Richi Dili Puspita [2] - I still believe Riky/Richi can deliver at least the XD title for Team INA in Osaka this week.

	Mohd Lutfi Zaim Abdul Khalid [3]
	Vountus Indra Mawan

21-14 24-22

well well well

Top 35 next week i think

**rosid** · 04-07-2012, 01:36 AM

There are only JPN and INA in the final tomorrow.

**badMania** · 04-07-2012, 05:30 AM

MD FINAL
Takeshi Kamura/Keigo Sonoda vs Markus Fernaldi Gideon/Agripinna Prima Rahmanto Putra [2] - Markus/Agri confirm their status as the most-consistent MD pair of the second-team. 2 Finals in a row for them and I hope they can deliver their 2nd IC title this year. It will be a hard-slog as the JPN has beaten a number of INA pairs, including Ulin/Ricky, Hafiz/Eka, Andhika/Hendra since last year.

I agree with this prediction.

I think the Japanese pair will win. So, only 1 title for INA this week from Osaka.

good job

wow... very convincing title for Riky/Richi.... won all matches with straight sets...
they will be in Top 90 next week....
I hope they can break Top 50 WR in the end of this year...
need around 12,000 points more... I think, if they got 10-12 tourneys, and mostly Challenge and GP, it will be realistic that they can enter Top 50 WR soon hopefully...

another promising XD pair, i think....

Anyway, Richi is not so young as she was partnered with Tontowi for 2-3 years before Towi paired with Lilyana.

**fathonezic** · 04-07-2012, 10:36 PM

yes, Richi is 23 yo... not too old, right ?
she is quite good i think... still have a long road in her career...
5 years more at least, i guess....

Team INA (in particular the Pelatnas second team) makes sure they do not return home empty-handed in their trips to Vietnam and Osaka IC 2012. Riky Widianto/Richi Dili Puspita won their first international title, after being paired up for only their 4th international tourney. I think they have a good potential, definitely much more than Irfan/Wenni!

They will be sent to the BAC and MAS GPG next; and I am quite sure the INA SSP and INA GPG (and probably IC too). With more experience at GP & GPG events (the usual Asian tourneys will include Thailand, Vietnam, Macau, Chinese-Taipei, Korea & India), I think they will be able to finish at least in the top 50-60 by end of this year.

As for Markus Fernaldi Gideon/Agripinna Prima Rahmanto Putra, they will reach top 35 by next week and it has been a good fortnight for them, despite finishing runner-up in both tourneys. No shame also losing to the Japanese pair as it's a hard-fought match. They are scheduled to play in more GPG & maybe a couple of SS this year.

INA will then have 4 competitive XD... Lili-Towi, Fran-Shendy, Rizal-Debby, and Ricky-Richi...

This pair is much better and Richard hopes that Ricky/Richie could be the 3rd INA pair as Richie si pretty good as a playmaker.....next on is Alfian/Gloria and they will be sent to more senior tournaments than others
