The Biz Link Properties Purple League Corporate 2021/2022 (BHPLC) recently closed the curtains for its second edition where Dr. KO triumphed after defeating Senheng in the finals (11-3) at Sports Arena Sentosa. They proved that they can perform on the badminton court as great as they do in the boardroom.
Dr KO, the leading skin specialist began dominating early on as Dhami Tula Ram – Lim Loong Meng of the men’s doubles category breezed past Senheng’s Pong Chit Pei-Yong Chee Seng (11-0,11-10,11-9). However, things took a turn in the mixed doubles pair where Senheng’s Junior Oh Jia Pang – Yap Yee claimed victory (6-11,11-10,8-11,11-10,9-11) over Dr KO.
