After a Round of 16 that produced two more seeded casualties and a quarter-final round that confined the upsets to the earlier matches, the FIP Bronze Yogyakarta 2026 has settled on its Sunday lineup. Across 24 matches played at the Wii Social Hub on Saturday, the four men's semifinalists and the four women's semifinalists were decided — and on both sides of the draw, the seeding pattern that broke down so dramatically on Day 2 has fully reasserted itself.
The men's semifinals on Sunday will be Spain's top seeds Miguel Melero Bernal and Pablo Reina Ambel against Spain-China's No. 4 seeds Adrian Baamonde and Bohou Zhang, and the No. 2 seeded Spanish pair Fran Ramirez Navas and Alejandro Calvo Perez against the No. 6 seeded Spanish brothers Andres Calzada Felici and Arturo Calzada Felici. All four seeded pairings advanced through Saturday's two rounds. The men's seeds 3 (Miguel Gonzalez and Ahmed Al Barwani) and 8 (Marc Bernils Garcia and Roby Kurniawan Roby) were the day's casualties — knocked out in the Round of 16 by Enzo Chua and Ivan Montes Balleste, and by lucky losers Muhammad Revan Alkautsar and Muhammad Rafly respectively. Both upset winners then lost their own quarter-finals.
The women's semifinals will line up the top seeds Sofia Bellver Fructuoso and Nadia Putria against the No. 4 seeds Karin Ozawa of Japan and Jenifer Palma La Cruz, and the No. 2 seeds Elisa Terranova and Anna Neizvestnaya against the No. 3 seeds Patricia Ribeiro of Portugal and Carlota Serrano Gonzalez. Every seeded women's pair drawn into Saturday won their Round of 16 match; in the quarter-finals, seeds 1 through 4 all advanced. The No. 6 seeds Yuki Kushima and Felicia Kusuma pushed Bellver Fructuoso–Putria to a tight 7–5, 7–6 on Dome A — the closest match of the women's quarter-finals — but it was the only one that the top half of the bracket did not win in straight, easy sets.
The story of the day on the men's side was also the end of one of the week's defining runs. Adria Mercadal and Raid Rahmat Laleno Mamat, the Spanish-Indonesian qualifying pair that had not dropped a set since arriving on Wednesday, finally fell in the quarter-finals — beaten 6–2, 6–0 by the No. 2 seeds Ramirez Navas and Calvo Perez on Dome B. It ended a five-match tournament run that included two qualifying wins (one a 6–0, 6–0), a three-set victory over the No. 3 qualifying seeds, and a Round of 16 win earlier on Saturday. The bracket got the better of them in the end, but the Mercadal–Mamat run will be remembered as the week's signature qualifying story.
Sunday brings the semifinals and the finals — both men's and women's — at the Wii Social Hub. The winners take €807.50 per player; the runners-up €446.25.
