Feeling his Wei back


Making a return: Lee Chong Wei has not played competitively since the World Superseries Finals in Dubai last December.

“The decision was made yesterday. Both my coaches and doctors agreed that I’m fit enough to compete,” said Chong Wei, who was initially expected to be out for three to six weeks after slipping and injuring the medial collateral ligament (MCL) on his left knee last month.
