Cheh Chang trying out ‘split and match’ to get shuttlers in the mix


A shoo-in: The mixed doubles title is Chan Peng Soon-Goh Liu Ying’s for the taking as all other pairs have split up for the national meet starting in Perak today.

PETALING JAYA: The mixed doubles competition of the Celcom Axiata National Championships, which begins today, looks set to be a lopsided affair.

National No. 1 Chan Peng Soon-Goh Liu Ying are expected to reclaim the title they last won in 2011 with ease unless one of the four Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) scratch pairs can spring a surprise at Perak Badminton Arena in Ipoh.
