Singapore Open 2025: Aaron-Wooi Yik Set Up Final Showdown With South Koreans

01/06/2025 12:12 AM

KUALA LUMPUR, May 31 (Bernama) -- Red-hot Malaysian men’s doubles pair Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik have blazed their way into the Singapore Open 2025 final, where they will face Kim Won Ho-Seo Seung Jae of South Korea, tomorrow.

The world No. 3 duo have been in great form this season, having captured the Thailand Open title on May 18 and finishing as runners-up at the Malaysia Masters last week.

However, Aaron-Wooi Yik will need to be cautious, as they lost to the Korean pair in their previous encounter at the India Open 2025 in January. 

Won Ho-Seung Jae cruised to the final after defeating Danish pair, Kim Astrup-Anders Skaarup Rasmussen, 21-17 and 21-16. 

Earlier today, Aaron-Wooi Yik, the third seeds, showcased their class and composure by ousting India’s duo, Satwiksairaj Rankireddy-Chirag Shetty, 19-21, 21-10, 21-18 in 64 minutes. 

It was a dominant display from the Malaysians to mark their 10th victory after 13 head-to-head encounters against the Indian pair.
