National women’s badminton doubles pair Pearly Tan-M Thinaah’s dream to clinch their first title of the season fell short after the home duo Jeong Na Eun-Kim Hye Jeong defeated them in the Korea Open 2024 final today.

In the match that took place at the Mokpo Indoor Stadium in Seoul, the Malaysian team, who were seeded fourth in the tournament, had to accept the prowess of the tournament’s sixth seeds when they tamely went down 12-21 and 11-21 in 44 minutes.

This is Tan-Thinaah’s third loss to the same pair...
