Besting the year’s top pair in a thrilling match at the YONEX French Open 2022, Ben Lane and Sean Vendy showcased their mental fortitude and proved that their hard work is paying off. After losing the first game 21-16 to Fajar Alfian and Muhammad Rian Ardianto, the newly-crowned Denmark Open champions, the English duo fought back from a 13-8 deficit in the second game and saved a match point to eventually win 23-21.
Despite a momentary lapse where Lane made an error, they remained focused and composed. The match remained closely contested until the interval, but Lane and Vendy pulled away to secure the victory. This marks an early exit for Alfian and Ardianto since their triumph at the Swiss Open in March.
