Historic near-miss for Pang Ron-Pei Jing at China Masters
They failed to make history as the first Malaysians to win a title at the China Masters since its inception 21 years ago, losing to the world No 1 home pair in the final.
Malaysian mixed doubles pair Hoo Pang Ron-Lai Pei Jing made a historic near-miss at the China Masters, falling short in the final against world No 1 duo Feng Yan Zhe-Huang Dong Ping. Despite their hopes of becoming the first Malaysian shuttlers to win a title at the China Masters since its inception in 2005, the pair went down 19-21, 16-21 in a 49-minute final. This marked their first-ever final at a Super 750 tournament, a remarkable achievement for a partnership that has only been together for four months.
