PETALING JAYA: Women’s doubles shuttler Chow Mei Kuan admits she’s concerned about the burst Covid-19 bubble in the Games village after several athletes tested positive for the virus.

But the 26-year-old debutant will not let that dampen her spirit as she and Lee Meng Yean gear up for Group A’s crucial opener against Indonesia’s Greysia Polii-Apriyani Rahayu at the Musashino Forest Sports Plaza on Saturday.
