PETALING JAYA: Aaron Chia and Soh Wooi Yik reached a significant milestone in their badminton careers by winning the men’s doubles title at the Thailand Open today.

The reigning Asian champions did it in style by showcasing their tactical maturity to defeat Denmark’s surprise package William Kryger Boe-Christian Faust Kjaer 20-22, 21-17, 21-12 in an energy-sapping match that lasted 60 minutes.

This victory marks the first time world No 5 pair Aaron-Wooi Yik have won two titles in a year, following their earlier success at the Badminton Asia Championships held in Zhejiang, China, in March.

It was a day of double joy in Bangkok for Malaysia as Pearly Tan-M Thinaah had earlier lifted the women’s doubles title.

Aaron-Wooi Yik’s victory also ended Malaysia’s 16-year title drought in the men’s doubles event at the championship.

The last Malaysian winners were Chan Peng Soon and Lim Khim Wah in 2009.

Aaron-Wooi Yik earned US$37,525 (RM161,130), while the runners-up took home US$18,050 (RM77,500).

Boe-Kjaer, who are ranked No 75, made heads turn at the championship when they defeated three seeded pairs including Indonesians Fajar Alfian-Rian Ardianto and Malaysia’s Man Wei Chong-Tee Kai Wun en route to the final.

Their fairy-tale run at the championship here comes after having been knocked out in the first round of the last five tournaments they had played.
