KUALA LUMPUR: World No 7 Lee Chong Wei has hinted that several men's singles shuttlers, including Soong Joo Ven and Soo Teck Zhi, could be dropped from the national squad. They are already 23 or more," lamented Chong Wei when met at the Academy Badminton Malaysia (ABM) in Bukit Kiara today. "I understand that BAM will be dropping some players, so let's see what the coaches decide," added Chong Wei, who is still the go-to man, for international honours. "Zii Jia is 16 years younger than me, and I won't be playing at the next Asian Games as I will already be 40. "I still have next year to focus on tournaments like the World Championships though I will still give my best in every tournament I play in," Chong Wei said.
