KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 2 (Bernama) -- National women’s singles shuttler Wong Ling Ching is down with fever, but she isn’t letting it slow her down ahead of the Thailand SEA Games from Dec 9-20.
The 22-year-old said that she has trained her sights on doing the best she can at the biennial Games, and that means there will be no let-up in her training, sick or not.
“I have a slight fever but I still continue to train. The coach, however, has made some adjustments to accommodate my health.
“Anyway, I hope to recover soon and be in prime shape when we leave for Bangkok on Friday (Dec 5),” she said when met after the training session at Akademi Badminton Malaysia (ABM) in Bukit Kiara here today.
Ling Ching is also hell bent on ensuring the embarrassment the women’s badminton team suffered at the previous edition in Cambodia is not repeated in Bangkok.
In the 2023 Cambodia SEA Games in Phnom Penh, the national women’s team crashed out of the team competition after suffering a shock 3-0 semi-final loss to minnows Philippines.
As such, Ling Ching said she will do her best to deliver a point whenever she is fielded and help Malaysia avoid another fiasco.
