Lifeline for Iskandar but it’s end of the road for two players


KUALA LUMPUR: National men’s singles shuttler Iskandar Zulkarnain Zainuddin can heave a huge sigh of relief for now but the badminton careers of two others - Asian junior champion Soo Teck Zhi and Chong Yee Han are over.

The Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) coaching and training committee dropped eight national shuttlers, including two men’s singles players in a downsizing exercise yesterday.
