00:01Aaron Chia and So Wuyik's hopes of winning a second world title ended in disappointment
00:05after they lost to China's world number three Liang Weikeng and Wang Chang in the world championships final in New
00:11Delhi on Sunday.
00:13The Malaysian pair, who won the title in Tokyo in 2022, went down 17-21, 16-21 to the Chinese
00:21duo at the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium.
00:23The victory secured Liang Wang their first world title and extended their dominance over Aaron Wuyik, having now won 11
00:31of their 14 meetings.
00:33The Chinese pair have also beaten the Malaysians twice this year, at the Thomas Cup finals in Horsens in April
00:39and the Singapore Open quarterfinals in June.
00:42Despite the defeat, Aaron Wuyik can hold their heads high after emerging as Malaysia's best performers in the tournament.
00:48Wuyik said reaching the final again was a major boost for the pair, especially after everything they had been through.
00:54They had booked their place in the final by stunning defending champions and world number one Kim Won-ho and
01:00Seo Sung-jae, 21-17, 21-18 in the semifinals.
