Trias/Rachel Eliminated from Thailand Open After Loss to Japanese Pair

The Indonesian women’s doubles team of Meilysa Trias Puspitasari and Rachel Allessya Rose bowed out of the Thailand Open 2025 following a quarterfinal defeat to Japan’s Rui Hirokami/Sayaka Hobara.

Struggles from the start at Nimibutr Stadium

Competing at Nimibutr Stadium in Bangkok, Trias/Rachel found themselves under pressure early on. The pair struggled to break through the solid defense of the Japanese duo, who are currently ranked No. 244 in the world.

Windy conditions and unforced errors prove costly

The match was further complicated by challenging wind conditions inside the stadium. These conditions disrupted the shuttle trajectory, leading to frequent misjudged returns. A flurry of unforced errors saw the Indonesian pair fall behind 0-6 at the start of the first game.

Indonesia’s women’s doubles run comes to an end

This loss also signifies the end of the road for all Indonesian women’s doubles representatives in the Thailand Open 2025, marking a disappointing finish for the national squad in the tournament.
