Wasteful Tang Jie-Ee Wei leave coach Nova at a loss for words


PETALING JAYA: Shuttlers Chen Tang Jie-Toh Ee Wei are still lacking consistency despite their stunning rise to become Malaysia’s current No. 1 mixed doubles pair.

Tang Jie-Ee Wei were on course to reach the Hong Kong Open quarter finals when leading 19-13 in the third game against China’s Guo Xinwa-Wei Yaxin but could not hold on to their vast lead and shockingly went down 18-21, 21-12, 19-21 at the Hong Kong Coliseum in Kowloon on Thursday.
