The world No 65 pair, who have been partners since March last year, delivered an impressive performance by defeating the Popov brothers, Christo-Toma Junior of France, ranked 45th in the world, 21-17, 21-17 during the semifinals of the Super 300 event held at Centro Deportivo Municipal Gallur.

In the final, Wan Arif and Roy King will face the Indonesian duo, Sabar Karyaman Gutama-Moh Reza Pahlevi Isfahani.

Sabar-Moh Reza had to dig deep before overcoming William Kryger Boe-Christian Faust Kjaer from Denmark, 21-15, 16-21, 21-15 in the other last four tie.

Today’s final presents a significant opportunity for the Malaysians to avenge their semifinals defeat at the hands of the Orleans Masters 2024 runner-up duo in the Indonesia Masters, 13-21, 19-21, last September.
