PETALING JAYA: Malaysia, led by All-England champion Lee Zii Jia, will have a chance to restore their battered pride against regional rivals Singapore when they clash in the Badminton Asia Team Championships at the Setia City Convention Centre in Shah Alam from Feb 15-20.
SINGAPORE - National shuttler Loh Kean Yew experienced his first defeat as world champion when he was beaten 24-22, 21-17 by India's world No. 17 Lakshya Sen in the India Open final on Sunday (Jan 16). In the 54-minute clash between two young rising stars at the Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium, 20-year-old Sen produced better defence and fewer unforced errors.
