In a 62 minute match, Jonatan actually could dominate the match. After winning the first match, Jonatan took a lead, 18-16. “In the first game and the first half of the second game I was able to apply my strategy. Perhaps I was experiencing what Anthony (Sinisuka Ginting) was at 18. The finishing is raw. I was confused and getting carried away with the opponent," said Jonatan after the match.
Jonatan has his own record of his failure in playing in front of Senayan's crowd. “After the match, many things need to be improved. Many lessons I can take for future references. Frankly, I was quite exhausted. I have to improve my stamina. (and) focus in crucial points," he added.
With the defeat, Jonatan similes his achievement last year. In 2015, Jonatan was halted in the last eight after forced to make a way for the seeded Jorgensen. Jonatan was forced to surrender 13-21 and 15-21. “With the result, I am happy enough, but indeed, there are many things I should study and improve," he ended.
On the other hand, Jorgensen praised Jonatan. He realised that the victory he has now disappoints many badminton fans. But you should worry, you still have three men's singles players who have a very bright future. You have Jonatan, Anthony and Ihsan (Maulana Mustofa),” said a tattooed man.
With the result, Indonesia can only have one player, Ihsan Maulana Mustofa, to play in semifinal. The other representatives, Tiara Rosalia Nuraidah/Rizki Amelia Pradipta, Alfian Eko Prasetya/Annisa Saufika, and Anggia Shitta Awanda/Ni Ketut Mahadewi Istirani had to quit the tourney due to defeats in the quarter final.
