Malaysia's men's doubles pair Aaron Tai-Yap Roy King and mixed doubles duo Hoo Pang Ron-Lai Pei Jing were edged out at the Hylo Open in Germany, losing in the semi-finals to their European rivals. Aaron Tai-Roy King, ranked world No 74, had previously stunned top-seeded Indonesian pair Sabar Karyaman Gutama-Reza Pahlevi Isfahani to reach the last-four stage in the World Tour Super 500 championships.
Despite a strong run in the European circuit, including winning the World Tour Super 750 Arctic Open title in Finland and reaching the quarter-finals at the Denmark and French Opens, the Malaysians were defeated 21-18, 15-21, 18-21 in the semi-finals at the Saarlandhalle Indoor Arena in Saarbrücken.
