Mapasa and Yu Play Hard

“Setyana Mapasa and Angela Yu had a storming start to their women’s doubles campaign at the SATHIO GROUP Australian Open 2023.  With a current world ranking of 71, Mapasa and Yu came out with determination and confidence against the much higher ranked pair from Japan.  Rui Hirokami and Yuna Kato who have a world ranking of 24, seemed a little shell-shocked with the Australian’s performance in the first game, but quickly turned the tables in the second to take the match to a third and deciding game. Mapasa and Yu had their chances and match point, however could not consolidate on their opportunity to close out the 71 minute match.”
