Shock wave as Aaron-Wooi Yik lose to 857th ranked pair


Unbelievable: Japan’s Ayato Endo (left) and Yuta Takei celebrate after beating Malaysia’s Aaron Chia and Soh Wooi Yik in a Group B match yesterday. — GLENN GUAN/The Star

DOUBLES ace Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik have yet again failed to chalk up a first win over Endo-Yuta.

Not really a surprise? Well this time it should be since it’s not against the now-retired Hiroyuki Endo-Yuta Watanabe but the unheralded world No. 857 Ayato Endo-Yuta Takei.
