Letshanaa to dethrone Jin Wei as top Malaysian despite losing in US quarters


PETALING JAYA: K. Letshanaa’s campaign at the US Open may have ended in the quarter-finals, but the ranking points she collected could soon make her the new Malaysian No. 1 in the women’s singles.

The 21-year-old’s impressive run was halted by India’s Tanvi Sharma, who handed her a 13-21, 16-21 defeat in 33 minutes at the Mid American Centre in Iowa yesterday.
