Mei Kuan-Meng Yean remain positive despite tough draw in New Zealand


Huge task: Chow Mei Kuan (left) and Lee Meng Yean want to prove that they have what it takes to qualify for the Olympics.

KUALA LUMPUR: National women’s doubles pair Chow Mei Kuan-Lee Meng Yean could not have asked for a worse start in their bid to qualify for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.

The world No. 14 pair, who are skipping the Badminton Asian Championships (BAC) in Wuhan next week, will instead focus on the New Zealand Open in Auckland (April 30-May 5) as it offers them the first chance to earn Olympic qualifying points.
