Nevertheless, the pair is determined to produce good showing at the Malaysia Open Super Series that will be held from April 5 to April 10 at the Melawati Stadium in Shah Alam, Malaysia.

Goh/Tan could seal their ticket ahead of compatriots Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong in the qualifying race for the Rio de Janeiro Olympics in August – if they could prevent any major hiccups at the Malaysia Open.

“We got a very difficult draw, but I will try to stay positive,” said Tan Wee Kiong.

“I also hope Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong will also qualify for the Olympic Games as well,” added Tan.

However, Goh/Tan who are currently World No. 14 held no great advantage of qualifying for the Olympics over Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong who ranked World No. 16. According to Badminton World Federation (BWF), only the top 16 pairs based on the May 5 rankings list can qualify for Rio Janeiro.

Goh V Shem/Tan Wee Kiong will play their opening match against Chen Hung Ling/Wang Chi-Lin of Taiwan in the first round, but face tricky second-round match against top seeds Lee Yong Dae/Yoo Yeon Seong of Korea.
