Pearly-Thinaah miss first title on home turf

THE nation’s top women’s doubles pair, Pearly Tan-M. Thinaah missed out a glorious chance to bag their first title on home turf after going down to South Korea’s Baek Ha Na-Lee So Hee in the Malaysia Masters 2023 final today. 

Pearly-Thinaah got off to a shaky start as they were behind 4-6 before the umpire stopped the game for four minutes to allow Pearly to seek medical treatment for an injury – the Malaysians led 19-16 then.
