KUALA LUMPUR — Hopes now rest on Aaron Chia and Soh Wooi Yik to deliver a medal for Malaysia as the national women’s and mixed doubles pair and men’s singles players faced exit in their respective games today.

Malaysian women’s doubles duo Pearly Tan-M.Thinaah ended their journey in the quarter-finals following their defeat to South Korea’s world number two pair, Baek Ha Na-Lee So Hee.

Debutants Pearly-Thinaah fought hard to battle against the South Koreans, 15-21, 21-11, 7-21, in a match which lasted for 85 minutes.

Meanwhile, Malaysia’s quest to win a medal in the men’s singles category came to an end as Ng Tze Yong was eliminated in the quarter-finals by Japan’s Kodai Naraoka.

The 23-year-old was defeated 20-22, 15-21 in straight games against the world number three player in a match which lasted for 57 minutes.

Naraoka will be playing China’s world number six Shi Yuqi for a place in the gold medal match tomorrow. 

Earlier, Asian Games debutants Chen Tang Jie-Toh Ee Wei succumbed to China’s Zheng Siwei-Huang Yaqiong in the quarterfinals. — October 5, 2023
