SKOR.id - Bulu Tangkis Malaysia kini harus menentukan prioritas kala menghadapi dua turnamen bergengsi, turunkan skuad terbaik di Piala Sudirman 2023 atau di SEA Games 2023.

Kegalauan bulu tangkis Malaysia bukan tanpa sebab. Pasalnya, dua turnamen tersebut sama pentingnya.

CEO Akademi Bulu Tangkis Malaysia, Michelle Chai, menyiratkan kegalauan tersebut meskipun optimistis bahwa wakil Malaysia dapat membawa pulang medali.

"Kami mengirimkan skuad pemain terbaik kami ke China untuk Piala Sudirman 2023. Tetapi negara lain mungkin tidak," kata Michelle Chai dikutip dari New Straits Times.

"Jika (negara lain) merasa tidak ada gunanya (fokus ke Piala Sudirman 2023) karena lebih berpeluang memenangi emas di SEA Games, mereka akan mengirimkan skuad terbaik ke Phnom Penh."

"Kalau targetnya emas, maka kami pun harus menunggu dan melihat bagaimana kekuatan tim lawan. Tetapi saya merasa bahwa kami tidak akan pulang dengan tangan hampa," katanya menekankan.

Piala Sudirman 2023 akan berlangsung di Suzhou, China pada 14-21 Mei 2023. Bersamaan dengan turnamen, cabang olahraga bulu tangkis dipertandingkan di SEA Games 2023 Kamboja pada 8-11 Mei 2023 untuk laga beregu, dan 12-16 Mei 2023 untuk individu.

Pada Piala Sudirman 2023, Malaysia tergabung dalam grup neraka bersama India, Taiwan dan Australia di Grup C.

Sedangkan di SEA Games, Malaysia menjadi salah satu unggulan meski pembagian grup dan drawing laga individu belum dilakukan.

Skuad utama belum optimal

Jika dirunut lewat data historis, Malaysia sebenarnya punya kesiapan yang matang di sektor tunggal putra, ganda putra, dan ganda putri. Namun, sektor lainnya masih belum bisa tampak menjanjikan.

Di tunggal putra, Lee Zii Jia berhasil menjadi semifinalis dalam dua turnamen terakhir, All England 2023 dan Swiss Open 2023.

Sedangkan Ng Tze Yong berhasil tampil apik hingga perempatfinal Thailand Masters, All England, dan Swiss Open 2023. Bahkan di All England, Ng Tze Yong berhasil mengalahkan Viktor Axelsen.

Di sektor ganda putra, performa Aaron Chia/Soh Wooi Yik dan Ong Yew Sin/Teo Ee Yi juga cukup apik sepanjang 2023, meski belum stabil.

Begitupun ganda putri terbaik Malaysia, Pearly Tan/Thinaah Muralitharan, yang berhasil menjadi semifinalis di India Open, Indonesia Masters, dan German Open 2023. 

Sedangkan dua sektor lainnya menjadi "masalah." Sejak menjadi runner-up di Vietnam Open 2022, perjalanan Goh Jin Wei selalu mentok di babak perempat final, bahkan gagal menembus 16 besar sejak akhir tahun 2022.

Dua pasangan ganda campuran Malaysia juga memperlihatkan nasib yang sama. Tan Kian Meng/Lai Pei Jing juga kesulitan menembus putaran kedua turnamen-turnamen tahun 2023.

Harapan muncul dari Goh Soon Huat/Lai Shevon Jemie yang muncul sebagai finalis Swiss Open 2023. 

Prediksi skuad utama Malaysia

Tunggal Putra: Lee Zii Jia, Ng Tze Yong

Tunggal Putri: Goh Jin Wei, Kisona Selvaduray

Ganda Putra:  Aaron Chia/Soh Wooi Yik, Ong Yew Sin/Teo Ee Yi

Ganda Putri: Pearly Tan/Thinaah Muralitharan, Vivian Hoo/Lim Chiew Sien

Ganda Campuran: Tan Kian Meng/Lai Pei Jing, Goh Soon Huat/ Lai Shevon Jemie

Sejumlah nama pemain Malaysia juga bisa menjadi opsi, seperti Daren Liew, Justin Hoh (tunggal putra), Siti Nurshuhaini (tunggal putri), Goh Sze Fei/Nor Izuddin (ganda putra), atau Anna Ching Yik Cheong/Teoh Mei Xing (ganda putri).

Akan tetapi, tren penampilan mereka belum begitu apik. Ditambah, jam terbangnya belum sebanyak para pemain yang diprediksi menempati skuad utama Malaysia.
