  • Loh Kean Yew untuk pertama kali dalam kariernya berhasil mengamankan posisi lima besar peringkat dunia.
  • Loh Kean Yew pun tercatat sebagai pebulu tangkis putra asal Singapura dengan peringkat tertinggi sepanjang sejarah.
  • Namanya mulai diperhitungkan sebagai pemain tunggal putra top dunia sejak meraih medali emas Kejuaraan Dunia BWF 2021.

SKOR.id - Federasi Bulu Tangkis Dunia (BWF) merilis daftar peringkat dunia terbaru pada Selasa (4/10/2022).

Tunggal putra Singapura, Loh Kean Yew, untuk pertama kali dalam kariernya berhasil mengamankan posisi lima besar setelah naik dua slot dari peringkat pekan sebelumnya.

Pencapaian ini menjadikannya pebulu tangkis putra asal Singapura dengan peringkat tertinggi dalam sejarah.

Sebelumnya, status tersebut dipegang oleh Ronald Susilo yang menempati posisi enam dunia pada 2004 silam. 

"Target saya adalah masuk ke lima besar pada akhir tahun ini dan saya senang bisa mencapainya," kata Loh kepada Channel News Asia.

"Saya berharap untuk terus konsisten dan berusaha untuk hasil yang lebih baik."

Kean Yew pertama kali masuk top 10 pada awal tahun ini setelah tim putra Singapura merebut perunggu di Badminton Asia Team Championships (BATC) di Selangor, Malaysia.

Tahun lalu, ia menutup musim dengan bertengger di peringkat 15 atau naik 14 setrip dengan ranking yang didudukinya pada awal 2021.

Peringkat dunia Loh Kean Yew pun naik signifikan selepas tampil sebagai kampiun Kejuaraan Dunia BWF 2021.

Sejak saat itu, nama Loh Kean Yew mulai diperhitungkan sebagai pemain tunggal putra elite dunia dan jadi unggulan hampir di setiap turnamen.

Namun, pemain 25 tahun tersebut melakoni perjalanan yang tak mudah pada musim kompetisi 2022. Sejauh ini, ia belum sekalipun meraih gelar juara.

Bahkan saat jadi unggulan pertama SEA Games 2021 di Vietnam, Loh Kean Yew gagal juara usai kalah 13-21, 13-21 dari Kunlavut Vitidsarn (Thailand) pada partai final.

Pemain kelahiran Penang, Malaysia itu pun gagal mempertahankan gelar juara dunianya usai tersingkir di perempat final Kejuaraan Dunia BWF 2022.

Meski demikian, Loh Kean Yew masih memiliki kans untuk meraih gelar juara pada musim ini. Terdekat, ia dijadwalkan tampil di Denmark Open 2022 (18-23 Oktober).

Datang sebagai unggulan ketujuh, Loh Kean Yew bakal menghadapi Sitthikom Thammasin (Thailand) pada babak pertama Denmark Open 2022.
