“My best memory of 2022 was when my baby boy, Arthur, was born,” revealed Teo Ee Yi when asked to reminisce on last year.

“That was a very special moment, as we were playing the French Open at the time when my wife was due to give birth, and I was hoping that she could wait for me to return home, but I’m just happy that they were both okay and it was a lovely welcoming present when I arrived. Being a father means a lot to me, you want your children to look up to you and it definitely motivates me to keep doing my best for him and for Yew Sin, too,” remarked Teo about his son and his eight-year partnership with Ong.
“I remember buying his baby some cute items at the Paris Saint-Germain stadium,” laughed Ong and he remembered his time in the French capital, fondly.
For the pair, landing a coveted third-time spot in the HSBC BWF World Tour Finals 2022 is what filled them with excitement and vigour.
