KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 14 (Bernama) -- National junior men’s doubles pair Muhammad Faiq Haziq Masawi-Lok Hong Quan were crowned as the Malaysia International Series 2025 champions in Iskandar Puteri, Johor, today.
The 2024 Malaysia Games (SUKMA) gold medallists lived up to the billing as the tournament’s top seeds by surviving a rubber-game duel against South Korean pair Kim Jae Hyeon-Lee Sang Won, winning 21-16, 19-21, 21-14 in one hour and two minutes at the Educity Sports Complex to secure their maiden international title.
Muhammad Faiq-Hong Quan, both aged 19, pocketed US$720 (about RM3,027) for their win, while their opponents took home US$420 (approximately RM2,018).
The duo will next feature in the Indonesia Masters I 2025 in Riau, where they will take on Bo-Yuan Chen-Tang Kai Wei of Taiwan in the qualifying round.
The Badminton World Federation Tour Super 100 tourney will run from this Tuesday until Sept 21.
