PETALING JAYA: Motivational words from coach Herry Iman Pierngadi helped fire men’s doubles shuttlers Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik to the Asian Championships title.

World No. 6 Aaron-Wooi Yik suffered a disappointing first-round exit in the All-England but superbly turned around their form to end Malaysia’s 18-year wait for the Asian crown by beating world No. 16 homesters Chen Boyang-Liu Yi 21-19, 21-17 in Ningbo, China on Sunday (April 13).
