PETALING JAYA: Men’s doubles pair Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik redeemed themselves from last week’s early exit in Tokyo by clearing the first round of the China Open in Changzhou on Wednesday (July 23).

Aaron-Wooi Yik, who crashed out early at the Japan Open, made no such mistake this time as they ousted Denmark’s Rasmus Kjaer-Frederik Sogaard 21-19, 21-15 in just 41 minutes at the Changzhou Olympic Sports Centre.
