PETALING JAYA: Men's singles shuttler Leong Jun Hao went down to China's Weng Hongyang in the Indonesian Masters first round.
World No. 27 Jun Hao, who also lost to world No. 16 Hongyang in the Indian Open second round last week, fell 14-21, 13-21 this time at the Istora Senayan in Jakarta on Wednesday (Jan 22).
It was the 25-year-old's third consecutive defeat to the Chinese shuttler after also coming second best to him in the Asia Team Championships final last year.
Malaysia's challenge in the men's singles came to an end after Jun Hao's exit.
