“I WILL focus on my preparations for the SEA Games first. Then I’ll think about my badminton future.”
This was women’s singles shuttler Tee Jing Yi’s statement after losing in the first round of her maiden World Championships in the Tianhe Gymnasium on Tuesday.
The 22-year-old Jing Yi showed the good and bad sides of her game – combining good shots with some sloppy ones – en route to losing 21-17, 21-17 to Japan’s Sayaka Takahashi.
With her exit, Malaysia’s challenge in the women’s singles is over.
