PETALING JAYA: Independent men’s singles shuttler Lee Jan Jireh (pic) is taking the tough decision to retire from the sport due to lack of funding.
Jan Jireh proved his potential when he unexpectedly finished runner-up to fellow Malaysian Eogene Ewe in the Malaysian International Challenge in Ipoh yesterday, but it turned out to be a bittersweet outing for the 20-year-old, who has been forced to call it quits right after the tournament.
