Viktor Axelsen will again be the man to beat but national singles coaching director Wong Choong Hann believes the Dane will not have it easy at the Malaysian Open beginning today.
The tournament, which has been elevated to a Super 1000 category with a total prize money of US$1.25mil (RM5.547mil), will see the men’s singles winner taking home a whopping US$87,500 (RM388,290).
