World and Olympic champions swept aside by British duo
SINGAPORE (Reuters) - World ranked 19 Anthony Clark and Nathan Robertson sprung a major surprise to score the best win of their career together on Sunday when they won the men's doubles title at the Singapore Open super series tournament.
The British duo swept aside world champions and Olympic gold medallists Markis Kido and Hendra Setiawan of Indonesia 21-12 21-11 in just 26 minutes.
Robertson said in a media release: "We just played our best game today. It was close to perfect as I think we made just two errors in the whole match. I don't think anyone will underestimate us any more after this."
The fired-up pair now head for the Indonesian Open starting on Tuesday.
The men's singles title went to Bao Chunlai of China who beat Thailand's Boonsak Ponsana 21-19 16-21 21-15.
