PETALING JAYA: A world title continues to elude Malaysian badminton after Ong Yew Sin-Teo Ee Yi's gallant run came to an end in the semi-finals of the World Championships.

The world No. 12 found Japan's Takuro Hoki-Yugo Kobayashi too hot to handle as they went down tamely 13-21, 9-21 in just 32 minutes in Huelva, Spain on Saturday.
