Top desire: Indonesia’s Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo (back) and Marcus Fernaldi Gideon in action during a practice session ahead of the Malaysian Open at Axiata Arena in Bukit Jalil yesterday.

INDONESIAN men’s doubles hotshots Marcus Fernaldi Gideon-Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo have a simple goal – to remain as the world No. 1 pair for a very long time.

And Marcus-Kevin will be out to justify their status by defending the men’s doubles title at the Celcom Axiata Malaysian Open starting today.
