KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 11 (Bernama) -- The country’s number one men's doubles pair, Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik, lived up expectations by cruising into the final of the 2025 Arctic Open Badminton Championships in Vantaa, Finland, today.

The top-seeded pair in the tournament defeated the eighth seeds, Kittinupong Kedren-Dechapol Puavaranukroh from Thailand, 21-15, 21-14 in a 23-minute semi-final match at the Vantaan Energia Areena.
