The Star Online > Sports Sunday May 2, 2010 Paris perfect for Tan Fook’s honeymoon and last fling at glory KUALA LUMPUR: Veteran men’s doubles shuttler Choong Tan Fook has two very good reasons for wanting to go to Paris in August. The 35-year-old Tan Fook has qualified on merit with Lee Wan Wah for his eighth World Championships, which will be held in Paris from Aug 23-29. And it would also be the perfect place for Tan Fook and Zhang Jiewen, who tied the knot last night, to go for their honeymoon. Blissful moment: Choong Tan Fook and Zhang Jiewen waving to the crowd at their wedding reception in Genting Highlands Saturday night. — ONG SOON HIN / The Star Yesterday, Tan Fook and Olympic champion Jiewen of China treated about 1,000 guests to a romantic wedding dinner at Genting Highlands. “I wanted it to be a very special occasion and I am happy that many were able to attend our wedding. I am also thrilled that our Thomas-Uber team members managed to take time off to join in this ceremony,” said a delighted Tan Fook. Tan Fook, whose love affair with the Olympic champion blossomed in 2004, said that the world meet in Paris would mark an end to his decade-long badminton career. “I have finally decided that the world meet in Paris will be my final shot at winning glory for the country. Then, I will move on,” said Tan Fook, who had reached the semi-finals twice in 2001 in Seville and 2007 in Kuala Lumpur. “Of course, I will want to do well with Wan Wah. I want it to be the most memorable one.” Tan Fook will then go into coaching – either in Malaysia or elsewhere. For the record, the world No. 12 Tan Fook-Wan Wah did well to qualify for the world meet on merit despite having left the national team set-up for almost two years. The others who made the cut are Koo Kien Keat-Tan Boon Heong and independent players Gan Teik Chai-Tan Bin Shen. http://thestar.com.my/services/printerfriendly.asp?file=/2010/5/2/sports/6175177.asp&sec=sports Their wedding dinner in Genting on May 1, 2010.
