KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 24 — The country’s top ranked men’s doubles pair Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik moved up to second spot in the latest Badminton World Federation ranking list released today, after accumulating 84,518 points from 16 championships participated.
The Malaysian pair moved up to second spot, their highest in their career, after a fine performance at the just ended India Open in New Delhi where the pair finished in the runner-up spot, losing to a Chinese pair. Another men’s doubles pair of Goh Sze Fei-Nur Izzuddin Rumsani dropped from the top 10 ranked teams, slipping into 11th spot following less impressive performances at the Malaysia Open and India Open.
Meanwhile, the country’s number one men’s singles player Lee Zii Jia suffered a minor setback, slipping two spots down to fourth after suffering early exits in recent tournaments and managing to accumulate only 76,588 points.
