PETALING JAYA: Lee Chong Wei's woes in Europe have continued after he was sent packing in the first round of the French Open.
The three-time Olympic silver medallist was a surprising second round loser at the Denmark Open last week, falling in three games to H.S. Prannoy of India.
And it didn't get any better for the 35-year-old after he suffered a 14-21, 15-21 thrashing at the hands of unheralded Japanese shuttler Kenta Nishimoto.
World No. 40 Nishimoto goes on to meet India's B. Sai Praneeth in the second round.
