In today’s quarter-final, the Malaysian world No 4 pair stamped their superiority over Japan’s Hiroki Okamura-Kyohei Yamashita, winning comfortably 21-16, 21-18 in 37 minutes at the SJF Bank Arena in Odense.
Aaron-Wooi Yik, who reunited for the World Tour Super 750 tournament after a brief split to try new combinations, last beat the South Koreans in the Asian Games semi-final last month.
