BWF profile

Goh Soon Huat (Chinese: 吳塤閥; pinyin: Wú Xūnfá; born 27 June 1990) is a Malaysian badminton player.[3] He was a part of the Malaysia team that won bronze in the men's team event at the Incheon 2014 Asian Games.[4][5] He switched to mixed doubles and paired up with Shevon Jemie Lai due to a lack of performance in the singles department.[6] His best achievement is winning the mixed doubles title at the 2018 Singapore Open with Lai, where they beat the 2016 Olympic gold medalists Tontowi Ahmad and Liliyana Natsir in the final in straight games.
