Swansong with mixed feelings for Goh and Tan


So long pal: Goh V Shem (left) and Tan Wee Kiong..

PETALING JAYA: Their swansong at the World Championships has evoked mixed emotions for Rio Olympics silver medallists Goh V Shem-Tan Wee Kiong.

The former world No. 1 have achieved their best outing as the quarter-finalists in Huelva in their fifth world meet appearance but they were left to ruing on what could have been a perfect farewell gift to mark an end to their seven-year partnership – a coveted medal – after losing 20-22, 14-21 to China’s He Jiting-Tan Qiang on Friday.
