Same club, same division, both podium spots. KL Pickle Buddies' Leapmotor Elite Team swept gold and silver in Men's Doubles Novice at the WPC Hatyai Pickleball Tournament 2026, with Benjamin Lim and Jin taking the title, and CK and Shau Teng finishing runner-up.

A Genuine 1-2 Finish

Both results came from the same club's Leapmotor Elite Team, and KL Pickle Buddies posted each pair's finish separately, a champion announcement for Benjamin Lim and Jin, and a strong-showing shoutout for CK and Shau Teng's silver.

Read together, it's a genuine sweep: two Leapmotor Elite Team pairs from the same club occupying both podium spots in the same division at the same tournament.

For a community club program, sweeping both podium spots in one division is a real marker of depth, not just one strong pairing having a good day. Both teams competed under Leapmotor sponsorship, with Ryko listed as a supporting partner on both results.
