PETALING JAYA: Badminton legend Datuk Seri Lee Chong Wei has dismissed speculation that Kenneth Jonassen will focus solely on coaching the women’s singles squad from now on. He remains in charge of the singles setup overall,” said Chong Wei when contacted. Jonassen also echoed the same stance amid speculation that he had been demoted to handling only the women’s singles. At present, the national women’s singles squad is being coached by Iskandar Zulkarnain Zainuddin, who was brought in last October. However, both Chong Wei and Jonassen acknowledged that BAM are currently in the process of revamping their existing coaching structure.
