Their best performances this year include semifinal finishes at the Singapore Open and Macau Open, although they fell short of reaching the finals in both the events.
At the China Masters, the pair faced a tough challenge in the pre-quarterfinals, losing 16-21 11-21 to the world No. 1 duo of Liu Sheng Shu and Tan Ning.
