Having had a far-from-ideal start to 2016, Lee Chong Wei will hope for all the home support at Shah Alam. The 33-year-old was knocked out in the opening round of the All England Open by India’s Sai Praneeth and although he later credited him for the win, he would have no doubt been gutted about his own showing in the fixture.
He endured another disappointing outing, this time at the India Open, where he was ousted in the second round by Wei Nan of Hong Kong.
Seeded second in Malaysia, he would be hoping to put up a much-improved performance in-front of his home fans and win his 1st title of 2016. He will have a chance to avenge that defeat to Nan when he faces him again in the opening round.
