This is it: Flandi Limpele seen here with Aaron Chia and Soh Wooi Yik.

PETALING JAYA: It may not make sense but men’s doubles coach Flandi Limpele believes the timing of his decision to leave when the men’s doubles are making headway, is the right thing to do.

On Sunday, Flandi’s boys Goh Sze Fei-Nur Izzuddin Rumsani were on the verge of winning their second big career title before they went down fighting 18-21, 19-21 to Fajar Alfian-Rian Ardianto of Indonesia in the Swiss Open final in Basel.
