  • Ganda Putra Hendra/Ahsan Jadi Pasangan Atlet Tertua Di Olimpiade Tokyo
    Ganda Putra Hendra/Ahsan Jadi Pasangan Atlet Tertua di Olimpiade Tokyo Realitarakyat.com – Hendra Setiawan/Mohammad Ahsan menjadi salah satu wakil Indonesia yang akan bersaing di Olimpiade Tokyo pada 23 Juli hingga 8 Agustus mendatang meski dalam usia mereka yang tak lagi muda. Dalam usia Hendra yang memasuki 37 dan Ahsan 34 tahun, pasangan peringkat kedua dunia itu menjadi ganda putra tertua di Olimpiade Tokyo nanti. Sebetulnya ada beberapa pemain ganda putra lainnya yang juga melampaui usia lebih dari 30 tahun yang akan tampil di Tokyo, diantaranya Hiroyuki Endo (34), Keigo Sonoda (31), Takeshi Kamura (31), Andres Skaarup Rasmussen (32), Ivan Sozonov (32) dan Vladimir Ivanov (34). Meski sudah melampaui usia emas mereka, Hendra/Ahsan justru seperti terlahir kembali dan mampu menunjukkan persaingannya di level elite dunia pada 2019 sejak keduanya menapaki karier bersama mulai dari nol pada 2018, setelah sempat dipisahkan karena Hendra keluar dari pelatnas pada 2017. Di tengah persaingan para pemain-pemain muda berusia 20 tahunan, pasangan berjuluk The Daddies itu tercatat lolos ke 11 final turnamen BWF sepanjang 2019. Mereka bahkan sukses menyabet status juara dalam tiga ajang besar, yakni All England, Kejuaraan Dunia Bulu Tangkis dan BWF World Tour Finals. Berkat prestasi tersebut, Hendra/Ahsan pun berhasil menduduki peringkat kedua dunia sejak Agustus 2019 hingga sekarang. Mereka mengungguli pemain-pemain muda, seperti Li Jun Hui/Liu Yu Chen (China), Fajar Alfian/Muhammad Rian Ardianto (Indonesia) dan Lee Yang/Wang Chi-Lin (Taiwan). Dengan menempati peringkat kedua dunia itu, Hendra/Ahsan menjadi salah satu wakil Indonesia yang lolos kualifikasi Olimpiade Tokyo bersama kompatriot sekaligus juniornya Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo/Marcus Fernaldi Gideon.
