Shi Yu Qi Advances to Quarterfinals at Indonesia Open 2025

Defending champion Shi Yu Qi expressed his excitement to play at Istora Senayan, Jakarta — the legendary venue that once again hosts the Indonesia Open 2025.

The Chinese men’s singles player proved his status as the top seed of the BWF World Tour Super 1000 by reaching the quarterfinals. This achievement marks an important step for Shi Yu Qi to defend the title he won last year after defeating Anders Antonsen of Denmark.

• Defeated Lakshya Sen (India) with scores 21-11, 20-22, 21-15
• Overcame Yushi Tanaka (Japan) with scores 21-14, 21-7

Shi Yu Qi’s journey to the quarterfinals wasn’t easy — he had to fight hard against Sen in a three-game battle before dominating Tanaka in straight games.
