Aaron-Wooi Yik get even with world champs for chance at first Open title

Well done: Aaron Chia (right) and Soh Wooi Yik beat Kang Min-hyuk-Seo Seung-jae of South Korea 21-18, 21-17 to reach their third final this year.

PETALING JAYA: Shuttlers Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik have made a quick rebound to exact sweet revenge against reigning world champions Kang Min-hyuk-Seo Seung-jae of South Korea.

Just two weeks after Aaron-Wooi Yik were effectively dethroned as men’s doubles world champions by Min-hyuk-Seung-jae at the World Championships in Copenhagen, the Malaysians turned the tables on Min-hyuk-Seung-jae in style on the same stage of the China Open.
