About Fajar Alfian

Badminton is a sport that always makes Indonesia proud because it often wins many national and world competitions. One of the Indonesian badminton athletes who often makes Indonesia proud is Fajar Alfian, which is my favourite athlete. 

Fajar Alfian was born on March 7, 1995. He comes from Bandung. He is a badminton athlete from Indonesia who plays in the men's doubles with Muhammad Rian Ardianto. He joined PBSI since 2014. Fajar Alfian started to like badminton when he was still in elementary school. That's because his father and also his brother often play badminton and Fajar Alfian's parents decided to put him in the badminton club. His struggle to become a professional athlete is not easy. He had to sacrifice many things in order to achieve his dream. He had to be away from his parents until his school was abandoned. Before entering PBSI Fajar only went to school 3 days a week. 

But because of his struggles, he is now the world's number 1 athlete in the men's doubles sector. He also won many world competitions. He has many achievements such as Bronze Medal in Men's Doubles SEA Games 2017, Gold Medal in Malaysia Masters 2018, Bronze Medal in Thomas Cup 2018, Silver Medal in Men's Doubles and Team Asian Games 2018, at the Asian Games they won a silver medal because they were defeated by Kevin/Marcus who were in top performance at that time. He also won Gold medal in Indonesia Masters 2022 and many more. In 2022, he also received an award from BWF namely "Most Improved Player of The Year" with Muhammad Rian Ardianto. For your information, BWF is the World Badminton Organization. So the reason why I like him because of his spirit to achieve his dream.
