He and Toh became the first ever world badminton champions in mixed doubles and the second ever world badminton champions from Malaysia after Aaron Chia and Soh Wooi Yik. He was part of the Malaysian 2016 Asian Junior Championships and 2016 BWF World Junior Championships team, and helped Malaysia to clinch a silver medal in the World Junior mixed team before being defeated by China.[4][5][6][7][8]
Chen was selected into the Malaysian squad for 2016 World Junior Championships.[9] Before that, he had shown his commitment on the court by reaching quarter-finals of the Asian Junior Championships with Pearly Tan in July 2016.[6] They were just paired up few weeks before the tournament and was defeated by the Korean pair Kim Won-ho and Lee Yu-rim (defeated 17–21, 16–21).[10][6] At the World Junior Championships, Chen took part in both men's and mixed doubles, where he partnered with Man Wei Chong and Toh Ee Wei respectively. He showed his potential by finishing with a bronze medal in the mixed doubles with Toh before the duo were beaten by the Chinese pair He Jiting and Du Yue in straight games.[11]
