The success in the organization of Blibli Indonesia Open 2018 by the organizer is also accompanied by the success of the Indonesian team in the tournament that rewards the winners to a total prize money of USD 1,250,000.

The Indonesian team managed to bag two titles in this tournament, while the target was to only secure one title from the tournament.
