Shuttler Sze Fei weds sweetheart before Paris campaign


PETALING JAYA: Former world No. 1 men’s doubles shuttler Goh Sze Fei has officially tied the knot with his sweetheart, Yoke Shan, on Saturday (Aug 2).

A photo that has gone viral on social media shows a dashing Sze Fei in a grey suit beaming with joy alongside a radiant Yoke Shan, who looked stunning in a white wedding gown, accompanied by Sze Fei’s siblings.

The 27-year-old had gotten engaged to Yoke Shan in December last year.

Tying the knot couldn’t have come at a better time for Sze Fei, who is gearing up for the World Championships in Paris from Aug 25-31 with Nur Izzuddin Rumsani.

Sze Fei and Izzuddin have been enjoying a strong season so far, having started the year ranked world No. 2.

They kicked off their campaign in style by capturing the India Open title in January, defeating South Korea’s Kim Won-ho and Seo Seung-jae in the final. The pair continued their fine run by reaching the final of the Japan Open three weeks ago.

However, they had to settle for second place in Tokyo.

They even had a brief taste of the world No. 1 ranking, holding the top spot for a few weeks from May 27 before ceding it to the Korean pair.
