  "summary": "National men's doubles coaching director Herry Iman Pierngadi is optimistic about a title-winning performance at the upcoming World Championships in New Delhi, which begin on Monday. The Malaysian men's doubles team, who returned from Paris last year without a medal, has undergone a reshuffle experiment since last month but will compete with their original pairings. Leading the push are world No. 4 Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik, world No. 11 Man Wei Chong-Tee Kai Wun, and world No. 19 Wan Arif Junaidi-Yap Roy King. If Aaron-Wooi Yik clear a potential all-Malaysian tie against Wei Chong-Kai Wun, they could meet China's world No. 7 Chen Bo Yang-Liu Yi in the quarter-finals. Herry hopes the team can stay focused and fight all the way, given their experience and recent success.",
