IT was supposed to be a day to celebrate for men’s doubles pair Choong Javen-Wong Qi Shen after becoming the first pair to reach the SEA Games final in 30 years but they weren’t.
Just hours after their great feat, they let slip a chance to win the gold after going down fighting to Koen Pang Yew En-Isaac Quek Yong of Singapore 3-11, 11-8, 8-11, 3-11 in the men’s doubles final to settle for a silver medal at the Morodok National Techno Stadium: Table Tennis Hall yesterday.
