Nothing-to-lose attitude pays off for Sze Fei-Izzuddin

Goh Sze Fei and Nur Izzuddin Rumsani advanced to their first Super 1000 final at the China Open after defeating Indonesia’s Muhammad Shohibul Fikri and Daniel Marthin 21-14, 24-22. Adopting a relaxed, nothing-to-lose approach, the Malaysian pair took revenge for their recent Hong Kong Open loss to the same opponents. Their speed and on-court communication were key to the victory. Fresh off their Japan Open win, Sze Fei-Izzuddin now aim to secure another title as an independent pair in tomorrow's final.
