Prannoy Wins First Grand Prix Gold Title at YONEX-SUNRISE Indonesian Masters
September 14th marked the final match of this year’s YONEX-SUNRISE Indonesian Masters, with Prannoy H.S. (VOLTRIC Z-FORCE II, SHB-87EX) grabbing his first Grand Prix Gold title at the tournament. The number 5 seed Prannoy faced off against Daren Liew (VOLTRIC 80, SHB-87EX)—who defeated the tournament’s number 1 seed—in the semifinal, winning in full sets with a final score of 21-14 14-21 21-14. He then went on to compete against 17-year-old Indonesian rising star Firman Abdul Kholi, emerging victorious with a spectacular straight-sets win at 21-11, 22-20.
Young Prannoy was recently the runner-up at the YONEX-SUNRISE Vietnam GP Open last week, making this his second straight week in a tournament final.
