KUALA LUMPUR: National mixed doubles shuttler Toh Ee Wei says she is finding her rhythm again with partner Chen Tang Jie after they were reunited in April.

However, she said there was still a lot of work to be done before she and Tang Jie could restore their performance to its previous peak.

"At the Singapore Open, we didn’t perform well. But we tried to get our focus back at the Indonesia Open, and we entered the semi-finals," said Ee Wei after a training session at Academy Badminton Malaysia (ABM) here today (June 13). 

"I think we are slowly regaining our form. There is more to improve and we need to keep training hard."

In March, the Badminton Association of Malaysia announced that the world number four pair would be split to allow the coach to try new combinations following tension in their partnership.

However, Tang Jie and Ee Wei were reunited at the recent Sudirman Cup and helped Malaysia reach the quarter-finals. - Bernama
