Rexy expects Aaron-Wooi Yik to meet tough target come what may

Calm before the storm: Aaron Chia (back) and Soh Wooi Yik have an easy start in the Malaysian Open where they will play Rasmus Kjaer-Frederik Sogaard of Denmark.

PETALING JAYA: Rain or shine, national director of coaching Rexy Mainaky’s target for top men’s doubles pair Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik is to see them win the Malaysian Open title.

Knowing that local pairs have a rich tradition in one of the oldest open tournaments in badminton, Rexy has always raised the bar when it comes the Malaysian Open taking place at the Axiata Arena from Jan 9-14.
