Rahadhani qualified for the Indonesian squad in the men's flyweight class (58 kg) at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, by granting a berth and placing fifth from the Asian Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Bangkok, Thailand.[3][4] Rahadhani crashed out in a tight 5–6 defeat to British taekwondo fighter and 2003 World silver medalist Paul Green in the opening round.[5][6] With Green losing the quarterfinals to Vietnam's Nguyen Quoc Huan, Rahadhani denied his chance to compete for an Olympic bronze medal in the repechage.[2][7]
