PETALING JAYA: The break-up with long-time partner Chen Tang Jie and an untimely ankle injury has forced mixed doubles specialist Peck Yen Wei to quit the Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM).

The 26-year-old from Kuala Lumpur, who has been with BAM for more than a decade, handed her resignation letter to high performance director Dr Tim Jones last week.
