Pearly-Thinaah conquer second-round jinx at China Open
KUALA LUMPUR: World No. 3 Pearly Tan-M. Thinaah continued their strong form at the China Open with a commanding 21-17, 21-13 win over Japan's Rui Hirokami-Sayaka Hobara in the women's doubles second round on Thursday. The Malaysian pair barely put a foot wrong as they booked their spot in the quarter-finals, maintaining the momentum built from last week's run to the Japan Open final. It was a breakthrough of sorts for the Malaysian pair, finally clearing the second-round hurdle that had tripped them up in the last two editions. They will next face either Japan's Yuki Fukushima-Mayu Matsumoto or Indonesia's Febriana Dwipuji Kusuma-Amalia Cahaya Pratiwi in the last eight.
