“In our journey, continuous learning and humility are key,” emphasized CHEN Tang Jie and TOH Ee Wei after the final match at the Princess Sirivannavari Thailand Masters 2024. Despite a 21-12, 21-18 loss to Thai stars Dechapol PUAVARANUKROH-Sapsiree TAERATTANACHAI, CHEN acknowledged the defeat resulted from crucial mistakes.
Reflecting on the game, CHEN pinpointed missed opportunities, stating, “There were a few critical attacking points that I couldn’t convert to points. I couldn’t accept it.” Despite the setback, both players praised their opponents for their consistency and ability to make sound decisions during critical moments.
Respecting the Thai duo’s enduring excellence, CHEN and TOH expressed their commitment to learning from them. “They are good when it comes to crucial decisions during the match. We really need to learn from them, keep training hard, and fight again!” The Malaysian pair remains uncertain about their status in the upcoming Paris Olympic 2024.
CHEN and TOH extended gratitude to their loyal Malaysian fans, promising to continue the fight despite the loss. “Thank you for all the Malaysian fans that supported us throughout this campaign. So sorry that we lost today, and we promise we will fight again,” TOH conveyed.
