Having witnessed local pairs dominate the men’s doubles title in the Indonesia Masters since its inception in 2010, Marthin understands the weight of the expectations from the home crowd. “We know the fans at Istora would be desperate for the title,” the 22-year-old acknowledged. “We will give our maximum effort. We don’t want to lose, but we will make sure not to get ahead of ourselves. We must remain composed under pressure.”
Carnando, on the other hand, expressed his gratitude towards the passionate fans who have fueled their journey to the final. A successful title defense would make Marthin/Carnando the first back-to-back champions in the category since Marcus Fernaldi Gideon/Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo in 2020. “We have the best fans; it’s hard to find this type of support and atmosphere elsewhere,” Carnando praised. “It’s extraordinary. It can only motivate us, not weigh us down. We are grateful for their support and want to give them something to celebrate.”
Equally thrilled to participate in their first-ever career final at the prestigious venue, Astrup and Rasmussen are exhilarated by the fervent Indonesian fans. “Indonesian fans are so involved in every rally. Even though they may be against us, we see it as motivation because it’s just amazing to play in front of a packed Istora Senayan. We can’t wait to step onto the court,” Astrup shared.
