  "account": "Men's doubles shuttlers Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik and PETALING JAYA: Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik are poised for their first World Tour title of the year after a hard-fought victory in the Denmark Open semi-final. The Malaysian pair, which reunited for this tournament following a brief split to experiment with new combinations, defeated the world's top pair from South Korea in straight games of 21-14, 21-18, overcoming Kim Won Ho-Seu Seung Jae in 38 minutes at the SJF Bank Arena in Odense. The Malaysians, who have now won three matches each against each other in their six encounters, will face either the Indonesian pair Fajar Alfian-Shohibul Fikri or the Chinese duo Liang Wei Keng-Wang Chang in the final of the World Tour Super 750 championships tomorrow. If successful, Aaron and Wooi Yik will take home US$70,300 (RM287,048) for winning the doubles category, while the runners-up will receive US$33,250 (RM135,766). The losers of the semi-final matches will each earn US$13,300 (RM54,306).",
