An "all-rounder" (player competitive in all three events: singles, doubles, and mixed doubles), his greatest successes came in men's doubles with Lim Say Hup. They won a number of major international tournaments on three continents, most notably the prestigious All-England title in 1959.[2] Kew San's singles titles included the Mexico City International in 1960 and the Asian Championship in 1962.[3] Known for his agility and deft racket work, he was a member of four consecutive Malayan/Malaysian Thomas Cup teams (1958, 1961, 1964, 1967), captaining the last which captured the world team title.[4]
Teh married his national mixed doubles partner, Ng Mei Ling and they have two children, a son (Thomas) and a daughter (Karen).[1]
