Frost to have no say as Chong Wei joins ‘Special Project’


PETALING JAYA: The Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) have come up with a “special” arrangement to help resolve the feud between world No. 1 Lee Chong Wei and technical director Morten Frost.

The two will no longer work together as Chong Wei will now be part of a “Special Project” that also includes both his coaches – Hendrawan and Tey Seu Bock - and five other shuttlers – Iskandar Zulkarnain Zainuddin, Chong Yee Han, Soong Joo Ven, Soo Teck Zhi and Lim Chi Wing.
