PETALING JAYA: There may be a blessing in disguise for world No. 2 men’s doubles pair Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik, who had to end their European campaign on a disappointing note at the Hylo Open in Germany.

Their 21-11, 14-21, 17-21 defeat to Indonesia’s Sabar Karyaman-Moh Reza in the quarter-finals in Saarbrucken on Friday marked the end of their four-week European stint.
