The pair has shown strong progress and resilience throughout their career.
Malaysia's Arif Junaidi-Yap Roy King pair exited the Badminton World Championships in India after a three-game loss to the home pair of Satwiksairaj Rankireddy-Chirag Shetty. The national men's doubles team started strong with a 23-21 win in the first set, but faltered in the subsequent sets, losing 19-21 and 17-21. Despite this setback, Malaysia has two representatives in the quarter-finals with the advancement of Aaron Chia-Soh Woi Yik and Goh Sze Fei-Nur Izzuddin Rumsani.
