KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 30 — National men’s doubles head coach Herry Iman Pierngadi is hoping for a showdown between his charges, Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik, and world No. 1 Korean pair Kim Won Ho-Seo Seung Jae in the All England final in Birmingham this March.

Herry is confident that Aaron-Wooi Yik, who were runners-up in the 2019 and 2024 editions, have a chance to overcome the defending champions if the top national men’s doubles pair can reproduce the form they showed at the 2026 Malaysia Open final on January 11.
