Malaysia: Malaysia started the day at the Singapore Open Badminton Championships with four quarter-finalists - three pairs in men's doubles and one in mixed doubles. At the end of the day, none survived, not even defending men's doubles champions Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik. According to BERNAMA News Agency, World No 2 and second seeds Aaron-Wooi Yik went down 15-21, 15-21 to China's world No 5 Liang Wei Keng-Wang Chang in just 31 minutes to complete a miserable day for the Malaysian men's doubles camp at the Singapore Indoor Stadium. Earlier, former world No 1 Goh Sze Fei-Nur Izzuddin Rumsani managed to at least put up a good fight before going down 18-21, 21-10, 14-21 to third-seeded Indonesians Fajar Alfian-Muhammad Shohibul Fikri. Credit also to rising stars Kang Khai Xing-Aaron Tai, who fought tooth and nail against India's Satwiksairaj Rankireddy-Chirag Shetty for 65 minutes before succumbing 21-19, 17-21, 13-21. On Thursday, world No 23 Khai Xing-Aaron, competing in only their second Super 750 tourname nt, stunned world No 7 Sabar Karyaman Gutama-Moh Reza Pahlevi Isfahani of Indonesia 21-19, 21-17 in 38 minutes in the second round. There was no joy for Malaysia in mixed doubles either when world champions Chen Tang Jie-Toh Ee Wei, who were leading 18-16 in the opening game, had to concede a walkover to India's Dhruv Kapila-Tanisha Crasto in their quarter-final clash due to an injury to Ee Wei.
