Coach: June Wei has ability to go further than q-finals


In form: Cheam June Wei beat South Korea’s Jeon Hyeok-jin 21-18, 27-25 in the second round of the Orleans Masters.

PETALING JAYA: Former international Ong Ewe Hock has called on shuttler Cheam June Wei to aim higher after the latter secured a morale boosting win over South Korea’s Jeon Hyeok-jin to reach the men’s singles quarter-finals in the Orleans Masters.

World No. 62 June Wei had a disappointing start to the year where he suffered early round exits in both the Thailand Masters in January and German Open earlier this month.
