Malaysia stuns Thailand in Thai King's Cup sepak takraw opener

KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian men's sepak takraw squad kicked off their campaign at the 38th Thai King's Cup with a brilliant start, including a stunning victory over traditional rivals Thailand in the quadrant event in Songkhla on Wednesday (July 23). The Malaysian team, comprising Aidil Aiman Aznawi, Norfaizzul Abd Razak, Muhammad Afifuddin Mohd Razali, and Muhammad Shahalril Aiman Halim, silenced the boisterous home crowd with a straight-set win of 15-13, 17-16 in a gripping second Group A match held at Hatyai Hall, Central Hatyai Mall. The victory boosts Malaysia's chances of reaching the semi-finals and avenges their previous loss to Thailand at the 2017 SEA Games, where they fell 16-21, 13-21. Earlier in the day, coach Zulkarnain Mohd Ariff's charges rallied from behind to defeat Myanmar 16-17, 15-8, 15-11 in their Group A opener. Malaysia will next face South Korea before concluding the group stage against Singapore. Only the top two teams from each group will advance to the semi-finals. - Bernama

Pearly-Thinaah advance in China Open 2025 with dominant win

KUALA LUMPUR: National top women's doubles pair, Pearly Tan-M. Thinaah lived up to expectations as they easily disposed compatriots Ong Xin Yee-Carmen Ting in the opening round of the China Open 2025 in Changzhou. The third seeds made light work of Xin Yee-Carmen as they cruised to a straight-sets victory, 21-8, 21-12, in just 24 minutes, to book a place in the second round of the Super 1000 tourney at the Olympic Sports Centre Gymnasium. The world number three duo will face Rui Hirokami-Sayaka Hobara after the Japanese pair thumped the Stoeva sisters of Gabriela and Stefani from Bulgaria, 21-10, 21-16, in the next round, tomorrow. Also through to the second round are another national women's doubles pair, Go Pei Kee-Teoh Mei Xing, who barely raised a sweat against Polish duo Paulina Hankiewicz-Kornelia Marczak, 21-5, 21-6, in 22-minutes. Sixth seeded Rin Iwanaga-Kie Nakanishi await Pei Kee-Mei Xing next after the Japanese pair saw off South Korean pair Jeong Na Eun-Lee Yeon Woo 21-19, 21-14. In men's doubles action, Man Wei Chong-Tee Kai Wun sent Wan Arif Wan Junaidi-Yap Roy King packing following a straight set win 21-17, 21-19 over the fellow teammates. Another all-Malaysian affair await Wei Chong-Kai Wun, next, as they will play professional pair Nur Mohd Azriyn Ayub-Tan Wee Kiong, who survived a rubber set duel against Taiwanese duo Lee Fang-Chih-Lee Fang-Jen, 21-16, 18-21, 21-14. Another independent pair Ong Yew Sin-Teo Ee Yi brushed aside the challenge from home pair Ren Xiang Yu-Sun Wen Jun, 21-17, 21-14. Yew Sin-Ee Yi will take on Thai duo Kittinupong Kedren-Dechapol Puavaranukroh, who came from behind to stun fourth seeds Kim Astrup-Anders Skaarup Rasmussen of Denmark, 18-21, 21-19, 21-18. - Bernama
