Hend it to LCW


We’ll miss the good times: Hendrawan salutes Lee Chong Wei for having the character of a true champion.

Former world champion Hendrawan was put in charge of Lee Chong Wei since 2015 in a bid to end the wait for an Olympic gold and World Championships title. But that will never come to fruition now after the 36-year-old icon was forced to retire due to his battle with nose cancer. Hendrawan shares his thoughts with StarSport's Tan Ming Wai about his unfulfilled ambitions.

Q: Many coaches have come and gone during Chong Wei's 19-year career with the national team. Your thoughts on being the last man to guide him?
