KUALA LUMPUR – National number one women’s doubles pair, Pearly Tan-M. Thinaah, and professional mixed doubles duo, Goh Soon Huat-Shevon Lai, cleared their first hurdle to reach the second round of the All England held in Birmingham earlier today.

In the Super 1000 tournament held at the Utilita Arena, Pearly-Thinaah lived up to expectations to book their second-round berth by defeating fellow Malaysians Vivian Hoo-Lim Chiew Sien 21-10, 21-10.

Next up, a mammoth task might await the unseeded Pearly-Thinaah should China’s top-seeded Cheng Qingchen-Jia Yifan defeat Chinese Taipei’s Hsu Ya-ching and Lin Wan-ching in the other opening-round tie, to be held later today.

Meanwhile, Soon Huat-Shevon recorded a straight-sets win over Chinese Taipei’s Chang Ko-chi and Lee Chih-chen 21-17, 26-24 to advance to the next round.

Soon Huat-Shevon will face the winner between Feng Yanzhe-Huang Dongping of China or Australia’s Kenneth Choo-Gronya Somerville, with their match also to be held later today. – March 13, 2024
