It’s repair time for our top pair


Tough hurdle: Ong Yew Sin and Teo Ee Yi are expected to face top seeds Muhammad Rian Ardianto-Fajar Alfian of Indonesia in the last four.

THEY failed in the men’s team competition, but the doubles pair of Ong Yew Sin-Teo Ee Yi are refusing to rule themselves out of contention in the individual event.

Hopes had been high on the world No. 19 pair to deliver a point in their second doubles match against Wahyu Arya Nayaka Arya Pangkaryanira-Ade Yusuf Santoso to drag the tie into the third singles decider, but they failed miserably and allowed Indonesia to walk away with a 3-1 win for their sixth consecutive title.

Yew Sin-Ee Yi are now ready to get back on their feet after checking into the quarter-finals of the individual competition at the Muntinlupa Sports Complex yesterday.
