Seeking Thai glory


Long delay: Aaron Chia (left) and Soh Wooi Yik have not featured in an international competition since the All-England in March.

PETALING JAYA: National No. 1 men’s doubles pair Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik aim to win at least one of the two upcoming Thailand Opens to get the year off to a roaring start. The world No. 9 believe they have done enough ground work during training to improve on their defensive game to face some of the world’s best in the back-to-back tournaments slated from Jan 12-17 and Jan 19-24 respectively.

The events in Bangkok will be their first-two tournaments since their quarter-final appearance at the All-England in March.
