KUALA LUMPUR: In an unprecedented move, the Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) have named Mohd Zakry Abdul Latif-Hoon Thien How as replacements for former national pair Gan Teik Chai-Tan Bin Shen for the world championships even though the latter had qualified on merit.
The Apacs and KLRC-sponsored Teik Chai-Bin Shen accepted the decision but felt that the BAM should consider giving them some form of compensation for dropping them from the championships, which will be held in London from Aug 8-14.
