Aaron-Wooi Yik serve up winning formula against world No. 1
KUALA LUMPUR: Men's doubles pair Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik put their strength in serve and return to good use to secure a place in the Denmark Open final on Saturday.
KUALA LUMPUR: Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik and his doubles partner Wooi Yik claimed victory over the world No. 1, Kim Won Ho-Seo Seung Jae, at the SJF Bank Arena, securing their position in the Denmark Open final. The pair highlighted their strong serve and return as the key to their success. Aaron emphasized the importance of taking control of the opening exchanges and exploiting their strengths.
The Malaysian pair previously lost to the Koreans in two three-game matches this year, denying them Malaysian Open and All England titles. Wooi Yik praised their recent improvements, particularly in back-court play and control, and the importance of their decade-long partnership. Their return to the tournament after a brief split has rekindled their enjoyment and reduced pressure, leading them to their first final together.
They will face either Indonesia's Fajar Alfian-Shohibul Fikri or China's Liang Wei Keng-Wang in the final.
