PETALING JAYA: Mixed doubles pairs Chen Tang Jie-Toh Ee Wei and Goh Soon Huat-Shevon Lai Jemie set up an all-Malaysian final in the Swiss Open after impressive victories in their respective last four matches on Saturday (March 23).

Tang Jie-Ee Wei ousted Taiwan's Ye Hong-wei-Lee Chia-hsin 21-16, 21-12 while Soon Huat-Shevon beat Dutch pair Robin Tabeling-Selena Piek 21-18, 21-16 in Basel.

Tang Jie-Ee Wei have now reached their second final of the year after finishing runners-up in the Thailand Masters in January.

It will be Soon Huat-Shevon's first title match of the year but third in a row in the Swiss tourney after they finished runners-up in the 2022 and 2023 editions.

Malaysia last had two representatives in a tournament final in the mixed doubles in 2017 in the Malaysian Masters where Soon Huat-Shevon finished second to fellow independent pair Tan Kian Meng-Lai Pei Jing.

The final is scheduled at 10pm Malaysian time on Sunday (March 24).
