Career

In 2014, Tunjung reached the final of the Malaysia International from qualifying round, beating among them the first seed Aprilia Yuswandari. Unfortunately, in the final round she was defeated by Chen Jiayuan in straight game.[6] In 2015, at the age of 16, Tunjung became champion at the Singapore International, defeating home favorite Yeo Jia Min in the final.[7] She later won the Indonesia International Challenge held in Surabaya.[8]

In 2016, Tunjung won the silver medal in the girls' singles event at the Asian Junior Championships.[9]

Tunjung opened the 2017 season by reaching the final of the BWF Grand Prix in the Syed Modi International. She finished as runner-up after her defeat to first seed and 2016 Olympic silver medalist P. V. Sindhu.[10] She also finished runner-up to Kisona Selvaduray at the Indonesia International Series.[11] In August, Tunjung obtained bronze medals at the individual and team events of the Southeast Asian Games.[12][13] In October, Tunjung becomes the first Indonesian in 25 years to win the World Junior Championship girls' singles title.[14]

Despite being a junior champion, Tunjung's senior career was quite tumultuous. In 2018, she won her only title that year at the Finnish Open, beating her compatriot Ruselli Hartawan in the final.[15] She obtained a silver women's teams medal at the 2019 Southeast Asian Games,[16] but did not bring home any medal in the individual events as she was stopped by Kisona Selvaduray in the quarterfinals.[17]

Tunjung qualified for the Tokyo Olympics as the sole Indonesian representative in women's singles. Her Olympic debut ended at the Round of 16 with a defeat against Ratchanok Intanon.[18] She was part of the Indonesian team for the 2021 Sudirman Cup. Indonesia advanced to the knockout stage but lost at the quarterfinals against Malaysia.[19] Later she competed at the postponed 2020 Uber Cup. Her results at the BWF World Tour tournaments were far from ideal, with second round exits at the European leg in Denmark, France, Germany, and home tournament Indonesia Masters, followed by a first round exit at the Indonesia Open.

Tunjung started 2022 on a higher note as the captain of the Indonesian women's team at the Badminton Asia Team Championships, winning all her matches from the group stage and contributing to their victory against Korea in the final.[20] However, her struggle in individual tournaments persisted, and her rank went down to 31 after her first round exit at the Indonesia Open.[21] At the second half of 2022, Tunjung won bronze in the women's singles at the 2021 Southeast Asian Games, and obtained silver at the women's teams event.[22][23] She then reached her first finals in the BWF World Tour event in the 2022 Australian Open. In the final, she lost to An Se-young in straight games.[24] Thanks to her runner-up finish in Australia, Tunjung edged closer to qualify for the 2022 BWF World Tour Finals, and officially became the first ever Indonesian women single's player to qualify for the World Tour Finals after the withdrawal of P. V. Sindhu opened a spot for her promotion.[25] She finished fourth in Group A standings with a victory against Chen Yufei and losses against An Se-young and Akane Yamaguchi.[26]

2023

Tunjung kicked off 2023 with a second round exit at the Malaysia Open against Taiwan's Hsu Wen-chi, despite an impressive victory against He Bingjiao at the first round.[27] She also lost in the second round of India Open, this time to Korean second seed An Se-young.[28] She competed in the home tournament, Indonesia Masters, but unfortunately lost in the quarter-finals against eighth seed and former World Junior Championships rival Han Yue.[29]

In February, Tunjung was called up to the Badminton Asia Mixed Team Championships team, which exited the tournament at the quarterfinals against Korea.[30]

Tunjung began showing visible progress with a quarterfinals finish at the All England Open, where she gave a tough fight to fourth seed and Olympic gold medalist Chen Yufei.[31] This continued at the Swiss Open, where she faced eventual champion Pornpawee Chochuwong in the semifinals.[32] Tunjung won her first ever BWF World Tour title at the Spain Masters by beating P. V. Sindhu in the final. This was also her first victory over Sindhu in eight matches.[33]
