All ready: Addeen Idrakie (left) and S. Sivasangari (top) will be taking on strong opponents in the China Open in Shanghai beginning today.

PETALING JAYA: The pain of past defeats still burns for national squash player Addeen Idrakie but it has fuelled his determination to make a powerful comeback in the China Open.

The world No. 69 Addeen endured two painful consecutive first-round losses to Hong Kong’s world No. 48 Henry Leung Chi Hin – first in the FMC International Men Squash Championship in 2018 and then at the Malaysian Open in 2019.
