PETALING JAYA: Pearly Tan-M. Thinaah found their mojo at the right moment to become only the second Malaysian women’s doubles pair to advance to the World Championships quarter-finals.
Everything the world No. 13 touched turned into gold as Pearly and Thinaah put up a supreme effort to topple two-time world champions Mayu Matsumoto-Wakana Nagahara of Japan 21-14, 22-20 in an entertaining third round clash that lasted for 47 minutes at the Royal Arena in Copenhagen yesterday.
