PETALING JAYA: Women’s singles shuttler Soniia Cheah is keen to lift her game after being a flop during the recent German Open and All-England championships. The 24-year-old, who was crowned national champion earlier this month, couldn’t raise her game as she crashed out in the first round of both European tournaments. “In the end I just tried too hard and my confidence slipped after the second game. 17 Kirsty Gilmour, who is coached by former Malaysian coach Wong Tat Meng, will also be strong contenders. Besides the singles event, Soniia will also have double duty at the Games.
