    The veterans KKK and TBH can surely compete again. No more high expectations. Reaching QF after a long break is something to be proud of. They both just need "consistency" and more physical conditioning since they are facing more younger players now.

    Why should they play with the juniors ? Juniors should be given chances to show their ability without seniors or elite player in the tournament.

    We Malaysian keep asking where's the juniors but at the same time we suggest these world players get involved with the juniors tourney. Doesn't make sense

    Some tournaments in less developed countries are slow with updating.

    I'm guessing they definitely would take the title. Tournamentsoftware is too slow to update these low level tournaments.

    You are right. Koo Kien Keat / Tan Boon Heong is still the best and they won the tournament easily. Congratulations. Malaysia really have good MD. A win is still a win here.

    Yes you are right. The title for this forum is not so suitable now. It should be Koo Kien Keat / Tan Boon Heong going uphill. :D

    Apparently it's not even news worthy in Malaysia when KKK/TBH actually win a title, no matter what level. Forgotten heroes?

    Doubles pair Kien Keat-Boon Heong are winners again

    BY RAJES PAUL







    A recent filepic of Malaysian doubles pair Tan Boon Heong (left) and Koo Kean Kiet.

    KUALA LUMPUR: Doubles shuttlers Koo Kien Keat-Tan Boon Heong proved a point by winning the Sri Lanka International Challenge - their first international title in three years.

    On Sunday, the seasoned campaigners Kien Keat-Boon Heong defeated top back-up shuttlers Chooi Kah Ming-Ow Yao Han 21-19, 21-19 in an all-Malaysian final at Colombo.

    En-route to the title, they had also beaten another Malaysian young pair Tan Wee Gieen-Teo Ee Yi in the quarter-finals.

    Kien Keat-Boong Heong’s last title together was at the 2012 Malaysian Open Grand Prix Gold - ironically beating Kah Ming-Yao Han in the final too.
