By R. KIRUBASHINI

Plotting an upset: Malaysia’s Goh Soon Huat- Shevon Lai Jemie are hoping to turn the tables on China’s world No. 1 Zheng Siwei-Huang Yaqiong.

PETALING JAYA: Only two pairs have beaten the imperious world No. 1 mixed pair Zheng Siwei-Huang Yaqiong of China since the start of 2022.

Can independent pair Goh Soon Huat-Shevon Lai Jemie become the third after Japan’s Yuta Watanabe-Arisa Higashino and Wang Yilyu-Huang Dongping to scalp the fancied pair?
