Peng Soon-Yee See hope to break early-round jinx in Orleans

Golden chance: Chan Peng Soon-Cheah Yee See will play either Taiwan’s Chang Ko-chi-Lee Chih-chen or Denmark’s Jasper Toft-Clara Graversen in the second round of the Orleans Masters today.

PETALING JAYA: Chan Peng Soon-Cheah Yee See got off to the perfect start in the Orleans Masters after sweeping aside China’s Cheng Xing-Chen Fang Hui 21-14, 21-16 in the first round in Orleans, France, yesterday.

The mixed doubles pair, who had left the Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) last November to turn independent, are seeking to turn their form around after an indifferent start.
