Tze Yong ends year on a high despite barren run


PETALING JAYA: Without a doubt, 2023 has been men’s singles shuttler Ng Tze Yong best year although he did not win any title.

The 23-year-old has moved up into the top 15 ranking in the world for the first time; beaten several top players, including world No. 1 Viktor Axelsen of Denmark once; and most importantly has been playing with confidence.
