Malaysia's reshuffled pairs move up the world badminton rankings
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia's strong showing at last week's Korea Masters has translated into significant gains in the latest world rankings, with the country's newly reshuffled men's doubles combinations among the biggest movers.
Malaysia's men's doubles teams have seen significant improvements in the latest world rankings following their strong performance at the Korea Masters. The newly reshuffled pairs, Tee Kai Wun-Yap Roy King and Aaron Chia-Aaron Tai, made the biggest leaps, with Kai Wun-Roy King rising 147 places to world No. 135 and Aaron Chia moving up 44 spots to No. 122.
The rankings provide an early indication of the progress of national men's doubles coaching director Herry IP's experimental combinations, although comparisons are difficult due to the varying number of tournaments played by each pair.
