Putting it briefly: Kido, Agripinna stopped in opening round

I

ndonesia'€™s men'€™s doubles pair Markis Kido and Agripinna Prima Rahmanto failed to advance to the second round on Wednesday losing to South Korea'€™s top seeds, Lee Yong-dae and Yoo Yeon-seong.

The Indonesian pair, who had been partnered early this year and had their debut at the Malaysia Masters 2015, were off to a strong start when they finished the first game 14-21 thanks to their tricky netting and sharp smashes.

However, the South Korean pair found their rhythm and sealed the second game 21-13 and the third game 21-14

'€œWe found difficulties analyzing the opponent'€™s strategy in the first game, but we were able to step up our attacks in the remaining games,'€ said Yong-dae.

The South Korean pair will face Marcus Ellis and Chris Langridge from the UK in the second round on Thursday.
