Hendrawan to adjust Chong Wei’s training after Finals exit


Not this time: Lee Chong Wei returns a shot to Viktor Axelsen of Denmark during the men

PETALING JAYA: Lee Chong Wei’s training programme will be adjusted to sustain his badminton career – at least until the World Champion-ships in August next year.

This is national coach Hendrawan’s assurance after the three-time Olympic silver medallist ended the season in disappointment. The world No. 1 failed to reach the men’s singles semi-finals at the World Superseries Finals.
