Tang Jie-Ee Wei one win away from WTF glory and RM934,500 prize [WATCH]

KUALA LUMPUR: Chen Tang Jie-Toh Ee Wei confirmed their status as Malaysia's leading mixed doubles pair with a commanding 21-15, 21-12 victory over compatriots Goh Soon Huat-Shevon Lai Jemie to advance to the final of the World Tour Finals in Hangzhou today.

The world No. 8 have made history by becoming the first Malaysian combination to progress beyond the semi-finals since the tournament's inception in 2008.

They now stand one victory away from claiming the US$210,000 (RM934,500) champion's purse.

Tang Jie-Ee Wei await the winners of the all-Chinese clash between Jiang Zhen Bang-Wei Ya Xin and Olympic champions Zheng Si Wei-Huang Ya Qiong, scheduled later today.
