PETALING JAYA: Former men’s doubles ace Lee Wan Wah will be attending his fourth Olympic Games but in a different role and in an environment unlike no other.

The 45-year-old Wan Wah is currently in Japan as the B squad mixed doubles coach and is likely to be part of the national team under the charge of head coach Park Joo-bong when they compete at the Olympics from July 23-Aug 8 in Tokyo.
