PETALING JAYA: Men’s doubles pair Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik made a confident start to their Hylo Open campaign in Germany, cruising into the second round after overcoming England’s Alex Green-Zach Russ 25-23, 21-14 on Tuesday (Oct 28).
The win set up a meeting with Czech duo Jiri Kral-Ondrej Kral for a place in the quarter-finals.
Also through were second seeds Goh Sze Fei-Nur Izzuddin Rumsani, who had little difficulty clearing their first-round hurdle by defeating Scotland’s Alexander Dunn-Adam Pringle 21-17, 22-20.
They will take on Denmark’s Daniel Lundgaard-Mads Vestergaard in the next round.
