CHAN Yiwen’s dream of a double in the Malaysia Games (Sukma) squash evaporated after she lost in the women’s doubles with partner Noor Ainaa Amani Ampandi.

Yiwen-Ainaa, the top seeds from the Federal Territories, have continued playing despite bothered by shin injuries and suffered a narrow 7-11, 11-6, 11-10 defeat to their national teammates Lai Wen Li-Yee Xin Ying of Sabah at the National Squash Centre yesterday.
