PETALING JAYA: The battle among Malaysian mixed doubles pairs has seen a drastic change with independent combination Goh Soon Huat-Shevon Lai Jemie taking the lead in the Olympics race.
And Soon Huat-Shevon are hoping to keep it that way by serving up a strong performance at the Asian Championships starting today in Dubai.
They face a tricky first round clash against Taiwan’s Ye Hong-wei-Lee Chia-hs and may meet either Hong Kong’s Reginald Lee Chun Hei-Ng Tsz Yau or China’s Cheng Xing Chen Fanghui in the second round. Kian Meng-Pei Jing are not only in a battle of their lives to return to the top eight but they have to face the enormous pressure from young Badminton Association of Malaysia pair Chen Tang Jie-Toh Ee Wei, who have shown in recent times that they are capable of unseating one of the independent pairs to win their ticket to the Paris Olympics.
