Malaysia Open: 2013 Champion Tai Tzu Ying Handed Tough Draw

2015-03-26

The second Superseries Premier event of the year – Maybank Malaysia Open -- will boast a stellar field in singles as all top eight male and female players, including 2013 winner Tai Tzu Ying, head out vying for the 2015 titles in front of the incredibly supportive fans at the Putra Stadium next week from Mar 31 to Apr 5.

Tai, currently ranked number six in the world and the 7th seed of the event, however, will have a tough path if she is to repeat her 2013 success. Tai will square off against Zhang Beiwen representing the U.S. in Wednesday’s first round actions, and will likely have to go head-to-head with Sun Yu, the tall and fast-rising Chinese, in the second round. The quarter sits number 3 seed Saina Nehwal from India.
 
Tai Tzu Ying
Tai made the semis of 2015 All England Open in her first tournament using VICTOR HX-800 racket.
 
Top-seeded Lee Yong Dae/Yoo Yeon Seong, and Kim Gi Jung/Kim Sa Rang of Korea, 2012 winner Lee Sheng Mu, and 2014 winner, local pride Goh V Shem will carry Team VICTOR’s hopes to take the win in Men’s Doubles. Last year, Goh teamed up with Lim Khim Wah and knocked down some high-profile teams of Boe/Morgensen and Chai/Hong to lift the championship. Goh will start his campaign this year with Tan Wee Kiong.
