‘Talk it out with your coach': Ex-Olympian Goh Liu Ying's advice to Chen Tang Jie-Toh Ee Wei after on-court tension
KUALA LUMPUR, June 23 — National mixed doubles pair Chen Tang Jie-Toh Ee Wei have been advised to continue to communicate openly with their coaches should they face any tension in their collaboration on the court. Former national mixed doubles player Goh Liu Ying said the world number four pair not only needs to communicate with each other, but should discuss more in depth with their coaches to ensure they are on the same track and goal. 'Each player will see each other's weaknesses because each wants to improve. 'There may be players who feel like using this tactic but their partner wants to use another strategy. I think that situation (doubles) is very common. So, the role of the coach here is very important, they have to discuss so that they can achieve the same goal,' she said when met recently. In March, the Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) announced that Tang Jie-Ee Wei were separated to give the coach room to try a new combination following tension in their relationship. Following that, the two of them got new partners, with Ee Wei pairing Loo Bing Kun while Tang Jie paired with Chan Wen Tse in the 2025 Taiwan Open as their first test. However, in April, BAM announced that Tang Jie-Ee Wei were paired again following a request from both players and the result of comprehensive discussions between the coaching team and the players. The 2025 Sudirman Cup in Xiamen, China was the first stage for them to pair up again to successfully help the national squad advance to the quarter-finals. Liu Ying said that any disagreement that arose was a bittersweet moment that any pair had to go through and she also faced the same situation with his partner Chan Peng Soon once before. 'We quarrelled too much. All pairs quarrel but the purpose of the quarrel was the same because each wanted to win,' she said. Liu Ying and Peng Soon once made history by becoming the first mixed doubles representatives from the country to win a silver medal at the 2016 Rio Olympics. — Bernama
