RRI.CO.ID, Jakarta - Indonesia has secured two spots in the Round of 16 at the Orleans Masters 2026 following the opening round of play at the Palais des Sports in France on Tuesday, March 17, 2026, local time. Leo Rolly Carnando/Bagas Maulana and the rising pair Raymond Indra/Nikolaus Joaquin both successfully navigated their first hurdles to keep Indonesia's title hopes alive in the men's doubles sector.

Leo and Bagas, entering the tournament as the third seeds, earned their place in the next round by defeating Taiwan's Chen Cheng Kuan/Lin Bing-Wei with a score of 21-13, 21-15. Despite facing early pressure in the first game, the Indonesian duo found their rhythm after the interval, eventually securing a comfortable straight-games victory.

Joining the veterans in the next stage are Raymond Indra and Nikolaus Joaquin. The young pair delivered a solid performance against Singapore's Donovan Willard Wee/Jia Hao Howin Wong, winning 21-13, 21-16. Raymond and Joaquin maintained control from the first game interval onward, displaying the consistency needed to close out the match efficiently.

However, the Indonesian contingent suffered a setback as the eighth-seeded pair, Muhammad Rian Ardianto/Rahmat Hidayat, were eliminated early.

In a grueling three-game battle against Germany's Bjarne Geiss/Jones Ralfy Jansen, the Indonesians ultimately fell 19-21, 21-16, 16-21. This loss leaves Leo/Bagas and Raymond/Joaquin as the final two representatives for Indonesia in the men's doubles category of this BWF World Tour Super 300 event.
