Tang Jie-Ee Wei survive late scare to reach Macau Open semis
KUALA LUMPUR: Top seeds Chen Tang Jie-Toh Ee Wei remained firmly on track for their first title of the season after overcoming a late scare to reach the mixed doubles semi-finals of the Macau Open on Friday. The world No. 3 defeated Indonesia's world No. 25 Adnan Maulana-Indah Cahya Sari Jamil 21-17, 22-20 to be just two wins away from capturing the Super 300 title. Tang Jie-Ee Wei made a blistering start in the opening game, racing to an 11-2 lead before wrapping it up comfortably without ever being threatened. The second game looked set to follow the same path when the Malaysians pulled ahead 15-8. However, their momentum faltered, allowing the Indonesians to mount a comeback and level the score at 20-20. Tang Jie-Ee Wei had earlier squandered two match point opportunities at 20-18 but managed to steady the ship just in time, sealing the next two points to close out the contest in 34 minutes. It was a timely result for the top seeds, who are bidding to make their first final of the year after being stopped in the semi-finals on four previous occasions -- at the Malaysia Open, India Open, Indonesia Open and Japan Open. They will next face either Denmark's Mathias Christiansen-Alexandra Boje or Japan's Yuta Watanabe-Hina Osawa for a place in the final.

Tang Jie-Ee Wei in race against time to overcome weaknesses ahead of world meet
Pushing the limits: Chen Tang Jie-Toh Ee Wei in action during their quarter-final match against China's Guo Xinwa and Chen Fanghui. — AFP PETALING JAYA: Mixed doubles shuttlers Chen Tang Jie-Toh Ee Wei have to raise their game if they hope to win a medal in the World Championships from Aug 25-31 in Paris. With the world meet just a month away, the world No. 4 pair are in a race against time to overcome their shortcomings. Tang Jie-Ee Wei's preparations for the Paris showpiece took a hit after they went down to world No. 9 home pair Guo Xinwa-Chen Fanghui 19-21, 15-21 in the China Open quarter-finals at the Olympic Sports Center Gymnasium in Changzhou yesterday. The Malaysians had never lost to the reigning All-England champions before this, coming out on top in both their previous meetings in the China Masters and Hong Kong Open last year, but could not replicate their past performances and ended up losing in 43 minutes. Tang Jie admitted after the disappointing defeat that he and Ee Wei had work to do ahead of the world meet. 'Today (yesterday), our quality when returning our opponent's serve was not good enough. They got many points due to this. Other than that, we did quite well,' said Tang Jie in a post-match interview with the Badminton World Federation (BWF). 'We also need to learn how to maintain our focus during long rallies. This is very important for us.' Ee Wei said: 'We made a lot of mistakes when we received the shuttle. 'We need to train more and reduce our mistakes. We will go back and discuss with our coach (on what we need to work on).' Overall, Tang Jie-Ee Wei have had a frustrating year after not reaching any finals so far. The duo were stopped in the semi-finals four times in the Opens in Malaysia, India, Indonesia and last week in Japan. Tang Jie-Ee Wei also split at the end of March due to a strained relationship before resolving their differences quickly and reuniting less than a month later. The pair have an opportunity to do better when they compete next in the Macau Open which starts next Tuesday. A good showing in the World Tour Super 300 tourney where Tang Jie-Ee Wei are the top seeds, will boost their confidence ahead of the world meet.
