PETALING JAYA: It may be a lower-tier event, but the Austrian Open from May 27-30 provides our women’s singles shuttlers a good opportunity to regain their confidence.

Head coach Indra Wijaya expects his charges to return with a title from the seventh-tier tournament where world No. 60 and SEA Games champion S. Kisona (pic) is set to be made the top seed.
