🏸 2026 results
Every 2026 result we hold for Alfian and Fikri, tournament by tournament. Tournament names link to our page for that event, which is written in Japanese. ⚠️Our tournament pages follow the Japanese entries and the finals, so for this pair the middle of a run is often missing. Where it is, we fill in the date, the opponent and the score from the official BWF day data, and say which source each line comes from.
Daihatsu Japan Open
Super 750・Tokyo Metropolitan Gymnasium
They came in as the 2nd seeds and won the title. We hold three of their matches here. On 15 July they beat Toma Junior Popov and Christo Popov (FRA) 21-19, 21-13 in 35 minutes in the first round; on 18 July they beat 🇯🇵Takuro Hoki and Yugo Kobayashi (8th seeds) 21-14, 19-21, 21-18 in 74 minutes, and on 19 July they beat KIM Won Ho / SEO Seung Jae (KOR, top seeds) 21-19, 21-17 in 45 minutes for the title. ⚠️The official BWF day data has them playing five here; the two we do not hold are the second round and the quarter-final, and they won both. 🆕Added on 18 September 2026: the first round against the Popovs was on none of our pages; the official BWF day data and the draw on English Wikipedia agree on it. ⚡The Christo Popov they beat that day went on to win the men's singles at the same tournament.
China Open
Super 1000・Changzhou, China
A second title in as many weeks. We hold three of their matches here. On 23 July they beat 🇯🇵Takumi Nomura and Yuichi Shimogami in the second round — our tournament page stops at 2-0 in games, and the official BWF day data gives 21-19, 21-11 in 33 minutes; on 25 July they beat LIANG Wei Keng / WANG Chang (CHN) 21-19, 14-21, 21-19 in 66 minutes; and on 26 July they beat KIM Won Ho / SEO Seung Jae 16-21, 21-19, 21-19 in 71 minutes. 🔴They lost the opening game and turned it round. ⚠️The BWF day data again has them playing five here.
BWF World Championships 2026
World Championships・New Delhi, India
They entered as the 2nd seeds and the run stopped in the quarter-final. We hold one match here: the quarter-final on 21 August, lost to LEE Jhe-Huei / YANG Po-Hsuan (TPE) 19-21, 16-21 in 32 minutes. ⚠️The official BWF day data has them playing three here, the first round on 19 August and the second round on 20 August, and they won both. ⏱Those 32 minutes are the shortest of the thirteen matches they played at those three events in July and August, level with two other matches, both of which they won.
Asian Games 2026
Asian Games・Ichinomiya, Aichi, Japan
They won men's team gold and, as second seeds, men's doubles bronze. In the team final against China on Thursday 24 September they lost the second match to LIANG Wei Keng / WANG Chang 20-22, 21-19, 14-21 (1 hour 6 minutes), but Indonesia won the tie 3-2. In the individual event they beat Hariharan AMSAKARUNAN / Arjun M.R. (IND) 21-14, 21-11 in the first round on Friday 25 September, CHEUNG Sai Shing / DENG Chi Fai (HKG) 21-10, 21-17 in the second round on the 26th and KANG Min-hyuk / KI Dong-ju (KOR) 21-14, 20-22, 21-14 in the quarter-final on the 27th. 🔴In the semi-final on Monday 28 September they lost 17-21, 21-13, 9-21 to Liang and Wang (CHN, third seeds) and took bronze (there is no bronze-medal match, so both beaten semi-finalists get bronze). 🔁They beat Liang and Wang in the China Open semi-final in July; in September they lost to them twice running, in the team final and the individual semi-final. ⚠️Our Asian Games 2026 page holds the team-final match and the medal result; the four individual scores come from the official results site and the English Wikipedia draw, which agree. The five Asian Games matches are not yet added to this page's count (seven matches, six wins, one defeat, up to 10 September).
Denmark Open 2026
Super 750・Odense, Denmark
Our Denmark Open 2026 page records that they lost the 2025 men's doubles final to 🇯🇵Takuro Hoki and Yugo Kobayashi 18-21, 21-15, 19-21, which matches the career table on English Wikipedia. ⚠️The 2026 edition began on 13 October; our tournament page follows mainly the Japanese entries, and as of 15 October we have not recorded any of this pair's matches there.
Scores are written from Fajar Alfian / Muhammad Shohibul Fikri's point of view (Alfian and Fikri's points first). The count (seven matches) covers matches completed by 10 September 2026. The five Asian Games 2026 matches (24 to 28 September) are shown on the card only and are not yet counted. Matches in progress are not listed.
🔴 The seven matches we hold
The seven matches we recorded for them in 2026 up to 10 September are six wins and one defeat. (The five Asian Games 2026 matches after that are shown on the result card only.) The official BWF day data has thirteen across the same three events, and there they win twelve and lose one. Every one of the six we do not hold was a win, and the single defeat is among the seven we hold.
- 🔥They won all ten matches they played between 15 and 26 July — five at the Japan Open and five at the China Open. Super 750 and Super 1000, back to back. We hold six of those ten.
- 🇰🇷Both finals were against KIM Won Ho / SEO Seung Jae (KOR), and on 8 September 2026 these two pairs are world No. 1 and No. 2. Both of those finals can be read from the other side as well.
- 🇰🇷They met KANG Min-hyuk / KI Dong-ju (KOR) twice in 2026 and won both — the China Open quarter-final on 24 July (21-15, 21-13) and the World Championships second round on 20 August (21-15, 14-21, 21-12). ⚠️Neither appears on our tournament pages at all.
- 🇫🇷Their Japan Open first round was against the Popov brothers of France — Toma Junior Popov and Christo Popov, 21-19, 21-13 in 35 minutes. Christo Popov went on to win the men's singles at the same tournament. On their pages this match is a defeat.
- 🇯🇵Two of the seven we hold are against Japanese pairs, and they won both — Takuro Hoki and Yugo Kobayashi (world No. 9 on 8 September 2026) and Takumi Nomura with Yuichi Shimogami (No. 26).
- ⏱The one defeat lasted 32 minutes, the shortest of the thirteen at those three events in July and August. The longest was the 74-minute Japan Open semi-final, which they won. The match that ended quickest was the one that ended their tournament.
The scores are primary records on our own tournament pages, and every one of them was checked point by point against the official BWF day data — same day, same opponent, same score. ⚠️The China Open second round is the exception: our page stops at 2-0 in games, so the points there come from the BWF data.

The career table on English Wikipedia gives the final as 21-10, 13-21, 12-21 against KIM Won Ho / SEO Seung Jae (KOR). Our French Open 2026 page lists that Korean pair as the defending champions. - 2026 — World No. 2 as a pair (2 June 2026)
The BWF World Ranking entry on English Wikipedia gives No. 2 on 2 June 2026 as the pair's highest position. Fajar Alfian reached No. 1 on 27 December 2022 with a different partner. Rankings move every week, so we always publish the date with the number.
📅 What's next
Their most recent match is the individual semi-final of the Asian Games 2026 on Monday 28 September (bronze as second seeds; Indonesia won men's team gold).
We list them as last year's runners-up at one event now under way: the Denmark Open 2026 from 13 to 18 October in Odense, where they lost the 2025 final to Takuro Hoki and Yugo Kobayashi.
⚠️ The Denmark Open 2026 began on 13 October; our tournament page follows mainly the Japanese entries, and as of 15 October we have not recorded any of this pair's matches there. We do not print guessed entries. We update this page and the tournament pages as entries are confirmed.
👤 Profile

| Event | Men's doubles |
| World ranking | World No. 3 as of 13 October 2026 95,053 points from 15 counted events. On 15 September 2026 they were No. 2 with 94,453 points, so they have dropped 1 place. World rankings are updated every week, so this is a dated record, not a current figure. Check the BWF website for the latest list. |
Fajar ALFIAN
| Name | Fajar ALFIAN (アルフィアン) |
|---|---|
| Country | Indonesia |
| Plays | Right-handed |
⚠️We do not publish a date of birth or a height for Fajar ALFIAN, because our two sources disagree: the Japanese specialist outlet gives 7 March 1996 and 177cm, English Wikipedia gives 7 March 1995 and 1.76m. The day and month match, the year is one out and the height is one centimetre out, so we publish neither. Both sources agree that he is right-handed, and that is the one field we do publish. He is a full-time professional, world No. 2 in men's doubles on the BWF list of 8 September 2026.
Muhammad Shohibul FIKRI
| Name | Muhammad Shohibul FIKRI (フィクリ) |
|---|---|
| Country | Indonesia |
⚠️We do not publish a date of birth, height or playing hand for Muhammad Shohibul FIKRI. The Japanese specialist outlet we use has no profile for him — he is not among the 18 Indonesians it lists, although Fajar Alfian and Jonatan Christie are — so we would have only one source, and we do not guess. He is a full-time professional, world No. 2 in men's doubles on the BWF list of 8 September 2026.
Source — Fajar ALFIAN's Badminton Spirit player profile (Japanese specialist media) / Muhammad Shohibul FIKRI's Badminton Spirit world ranking list, men's doubles (dated 8 September 2026) (in Japanese). This profile only uses what the sources above publish. We do not write about injuries, health or private life.
🔍 Keep your own scoresheet
"Six wins and one defeat" and "twelve wins and one defeat" describe the same players at the same three events. The only difference is which matches got written down. Our tournament pages keep the Japanese entries and the finals, so wins in the middle of a run fall away and a defeat almost always survives. The better a pair is playing, the worse our own record makes them look. That is why this page always gives the number we hold and the number in the official BWF data separately. Saying which number is which is more use to a later reader than hiding that they differ.
Badsheet records your own matches point by point, builds an official-style scoresheet and charts win rate and shot placement.

❓ Frequently asked questions
What is Fajar ALFIAN and Muhammad Shohibul FIKRI's world ranking?
World No. 3 in men's doubles as of 13 October 2026, with 95,053 points from 15 counted events. On 15 September 2026 they were No. 2 with 94,453 points, so they have dropped 1 place. The official BWF ranking (Week 42) and the specialist outlet Badminton Spirit's list dated 13 October agree on the place, the points and the number of counted events. World rankings are updated every week, so we publish ours with the date attached.
What are their 2026 results?
Up to 10 September we hold scores for three events and seven matches, six wins and one defeat (the five Asian Games 2026 matches after that, team gold and doubles bronze, are not in this count): champions at the Daihatsu Japan Open (Super 750), champions at the China Open (Super 1000) and quarter-finalists at the 2026 BWF World Championships. The official BWF day data has thirteen for the same three events, where they win twelve and lose one. Every one we do not hold was a win.
Why does this page hold only seven of their thirteen matches?
Because our tournament pages follow the Japanese entries and the finals. Wins in the middle of a run drop out, and a defeat stays. The better a pair is playing, the fewer of their results our own records keep. This page fills the gaps with the date, the opponent and the score from the official BWF day data, and says which source each line comes from.
What were the two titles in two weeks?
The Daihatsu Japan Open (Super 750, Tokyo) on 19 July and the China Open (Super 1000, Changzhou) on 26 July. Both finals were against KIM Won Ho and SEO Seung Jae of Korea: 21-19, 21-17 on 19 July and 16-21, 21-19, 21-19 on 26 July. Across those two weeks they played ten matches between 15 and 26 July and won all ten. We hold six of them.
How far did they go at the 2026 World Championships?
They entered as 2nd seeds and lost the quarter-final on 21 August to LEE Jhe-Huei and YANG Po-Hsuan of Chinese Taipei, 19-21, 16-21 in 32 minutes, the shortest of the thirteen matches they played at those three events in July and August. The official BWF day data shows they also won the first round on 19 August and the second round on 20 August; we hold neither of those.
Have they played against Japanese pairs?
We record two such meetings in 2026 and they won both: Takuro Hoki and Yugo Kobayashi 21-14, 19-21, 21-18 in the Japan Open semi-final on 18 July, and Takumi Nomura and Yuichi Shimogami 21-19, 21-11 in the China Open second round on 23 July. In October 2025, though, they lost the Denmark Open final to Hoki and Kobayashi 18-21, 21-15, 19-21.
How old are they, and how tall?
We do not publish either. For Fajar ALFIAN our two sources disagree: the Japanese specialist outlet gives 7 March 1996 and 177cm, English Wikipedia gives 7 March 1995 and 1.76m. With the year one out and the height one centimetre out, we choose neither, and publish only the field both agree on, that he is right-handed. For Muhammad Shohibul FIKRI that outlet has no profile at all — he is not among the 18 Indonesians it lists — so any figure would rest on a single source. We do not guess.
How did they do at the Asian Games 2026?
They won men's team gold and, as second seeds, men's doubles bronze. In the team final against China on 24 September they lost the second match to Liang Weikeng / Wang Chang 20-22, 21-19, 14-21, but Indonesia won 3-2. In the individual event they won three matches up to the quarter-final and lost the semi-final on 28 September to Liang and Wang (CHN, third seeds), 17-21, 21-13, 9-21. There is no bronze-medal match, so both beaten semi-finalists get bronze. The official results site and the English Wikipedia draw agree on the scores.
