**"Who will I be partnering with? You will have to wait and see, but that will be my last," she said.**

**The two left the national team for the first time in 2019. On 6 December 2021, Goh's partner Chan Peng Soon announced in his Instagram post that Chan-Goh have decided to split up after 13 years of playing badminton together. **
