PETALING JAYA: National mixed doubles head coach Nova Widianto hopes a little extra preparation time will benefit Chen Tang Jie-Toh Ee Wei for their charge at the All-England next month. "We have spoken to the players and decided that we would head straight for the All-England." Tang Jie-Ee Wei did not go far at last year’s All-England at the Utilita Arena as the second seeds crashed out in the opening round after losing to Indonesia’s Rehan Kusharjanto-Gloria Widjaja. Nova hopes to see Tang Jie and Ee Wei go further this time. "We just don’t want a situation where we start well in the first round, then fall to a lower-ranked pair in the second round.
