Lucky Hera Winning Without Fighting, Twice!

Indonesia Open ‐ Created by

A series of fortunate events, Hera Desi goes to the second round of Djarum Indonesia Open Super Series Premier (DIOSSP) 2013 without even playing a single match.

Bae Yeon Ju from South Korea has to take the challenge to play against her.

Hera goes to the main round after previously registered in the
qualification round. The withdrawl of Cina's women's doubles, Han Li,
gave some players benefits, Hera is not excluded.

Moreover, in her first debut in the main round of DIOSSP 2013, she is scheduled to play against Ratchanok Intanon. Again, Hera got her luck as Ratchanok was forced to withdraw her participation due to severe right leg injury.

Out the blue, not even bother to show a tiny effort, Hana convincingly is getting closer to reach her dream, becoming the champion of DIOSSP 2013.

"I'm so grateful. All of this has two sides of the coin. I still have my energy, however I haven't had a chance to be on the court. It can be a problem in terms of adaptation. For now, I just need to keep myself fit," said Hera who is now in the world's 34th.

In the next match, Thusrday (13/6), Hera will take a challenge from Yeon Ju who has defeated Indonesian young player, Hanna Ramadhini, with 21-18, 21-10. Although the two of them have not met before, Hera predicts playing against a player from other countries is more challenging.

"The South Korean player is likely to have the similar type; Offensive, so I have to prepare a good defense," Hera stated.
