PETALING JAYA: Doubles shuttlers Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik believe they can upstage Indonesians Hendra Setiawan-Mohd Ahsan in today’s battle between the rising young talents and old stars.

Their confidence is understandable as they have begun their quest for Olympic Games glory with a promising start after pulling off a superb 24-22, 21-15 win against South Korea’s Seo Seung-jae-Choi Solgyu in their first Group D match yesterday.
