KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 18 — Malaysia’s second-ranked men’s doubles pair Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik, saw their journey at the 2025 India Open Badminton Championship end during the semi-finals in New Delhi tonight.
The world number five pair fell to last week’s 2025 Malaysia Open champions from South Korea, Kim Won Ho-Seo Seung Jae, losing 20-22, 19-21 in 41 minutes at the Indira Gandhi Sports Complex.
The result mirrored their disappointment from last year’s edition, where they also exited in the semi-finals. The last time Chia-Soh reached the final of the India Open was in 2023.
In the mixed doubles event, Malaysia’s top-ranked pair and current world number three, Chen Tang Jie-Toh Ee Wei, also suffered defeat. They lost 17-21, 15-21 to French duo Thom Gicquel-Delphine Delrue (ranked 12th in the world) in 42 minutes.
