Early in the 2023 season, Lamsfuss and Lohau faced disappointments, exiting five tournaments in the opening round. Lamsfuss also sustained a knee injury during practice at the Singapore Open, further delaying their journey to regain form. Despite undergoing plica removal surgery in July, Lamsfuss encountered setbacks when his rehabilitation took longer than anticipated.
“We were hoping to restart after two weeks, but it ended up taking seven weeks. We had no practice before the World Championships; we simply stepped out to play,” revealed the 29-year-old.
Reflecting on their challenging circumstances, Lohau added, “Finally winning some matches and reaching the quarterfinals means a lot to us.”
