overwhelmed a duo from Kazakhstan on Friday to reach the finals of the women’s doubles in tennis at the 2018 Asian Games in Indonesia.

The top-seeded Chan sisters made quick work of Kazakhs Gozal Ainitdinova and Anna Danilina, beating them 6-0, 6-0 in just 50 minutes to set up a final against the second seeds, Xu Yifan (徐一璠) and Yang Zhaoxuan (楊釗煊) of China.

Latisha Chan expressed satisfaction with their performance Friday and credited their dominance to a successful game plan she and her sister worked out before the match after scouting their opponents a day earlier.

She vowed that she and her sister would do their best to win the gold medal, but the Chinese will be difficult opponents.    [FULL  STORY]
