"Jiewei Combination" Chen Tangjie and Du Yiwei are back together! The Malaysian Badminton Association announced on the 16th local time that Chen Tangjie and Du Yiwei will resume the relationship of mixed doubles partners. The decision was made at the request of the two players and after many discussions between the coaching staff and the players.
Chen Tangjie and Du Yiwei reunited after only one month of separation, and the two are likely to make their debut after reunion in the Sudirman Cup.
In March, the Malaysian Badminton Association confirmed that the "Jie Wei Combination" was temporarily disbanded due to "irreconcilable differences", but unexpectedly, after one month, the two would continue to cooperate and end the soap opera between the two.
The Mixed Doubles pair, currently ranked No. 4 in the world, will work together again at the Singapore Open 2025 (27 May – 1 June). The announcement of this news by the Badminton Association of Malaysia at this time also means that Tan Tang Kit and Du Yiwei are very likely to partner in the 2025 Sudirman Cup Badminton Mixed Team Tournament at the end of the month, providing another set of solutions for the Malaysian team in the lineup.
