Jun Hao has to battle from the bottom


Vital test: Jun Hao needs to finish among the top two this week to earn promotion into Division One.

KUALA LUMPUR: With a Thomas Cup Finals berth at stake, failure is not an option for Leong Jun Hao when he opens his campaign in the Badminton Association Malaysia (BAM) Invitational Championships today.

Despite being the third most senior member in the national men’s singles squad, the 21-year-old has found himself having to compete in Division Two with five others, due to his low ranking.
