The OUE Singapore Open 2017 witnessed an exciting turn of events as the experienced players took on the rising stars in the Men’s Doubles category. Mathias Boe and Carsten Mogensen from Denmark, who are recognized as the “old men” of the game, managed to put an end to the winning streak of Marcus Fernaldi Gideon and Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo from Indonesia. The Indonesian duo had won all three titles on the MetLife BWF World Superseries tour this season, but Boe and Mogensen proved to be a formidable challenge.
With a tactical approach, Boe and Mogensen focused on pressuring Gideon while keeping Sukamuljo at the baseline. Their strategy paid off, as they won the match with a score of 11-21, 21-11, 21-14. Boe humorously shared their game plan, stating, “Keep Kevin at the baseline and put pressure on Marcus. That’s how all nations should play them.” The Danish pair’s victory showcased their physical prowess and ability to adapt to different game situations.
