(Bernama pic)PETALING JAYA: It was another disappointing day for Malaysian shuttlers at the Japan Masters, with only two doubles pairs advancing past the opening round.
Mixed doubles pair Hoo Pang Ron-Lai Pei Jing beat Canada's Jonathan Lai-Crystal Lai, while men's doubles duo Man Wei Chong-Tee Kai Wun overcame Thailand's Peeratchai Sukphun-Pakkapon Teeraratsakul.
Pang Ron-Pei Jing, ranked world No 14, who needed just 30 minutes to win 21-14, 21-14, face a tough second-round test against China's top seeds and world No 2 pair Jiang Zhen Bang-Wei Ya Xin, who beat them in straight games in last week's Korea Open quarter-finals.
