KUCHING: Shuttler Ng Tze Chian hopes it is not too late to follow in his brother Ng Tze Yong’s footsteps and join the national team.

While Tze Yong is already an established player in the Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) as the country’s No. 2 in the men’s singles behind world No. 6 Lee Zii Jia, the 21-year-old younger brother is yet to find his footing in competitive badminton.
