Golden gift for country

Tactical masterclass: Pearly Tan-M. Thinaah were in sensational form, needing just 38 minutes to topple China’s world No. 3 Liu Shengshu-Tan Ning 21-14, 21-14 at the Hong Kong Coliseum in Kowloon yesterday.

PETALING JAYA: Women’s doubles pair Pearly Tan-M. Thinaah were left disappointed after missing out on the Korean Open title a day after Merdeka Day.

But the world No. 8 did not take long to made amends for that when they captured the Hong Kong Open title in style to give the country a perfect Malaysia Day gift yesterday.
