Rexy urges Tang Jie-Ee Wei to secure early Paris Olympics qualification

National coach director Rexy Mainaky challenges mixed doubles pair Chen Tang Jie and Toh Ee Wei to secure their Paris Olympics qualification early to reduce tournament commitments and focus on training. The pair's progress has stagnated due to a hectic schedule, competing in 28 tournaments since January. They must perform well in early 2023 tournaments to strengthen their position for the Olympics. Despite currently ranking No. 9, they aim to be the sole Malaysian pair in the top 16 or secure a top-eight position by April. The congested schedule has affected Ee Wei's performance, prompting the need for recovery. The upcoming World Tour Finals in Hangzhou presents a crucial opportunity for points equivalent to a Super 1000 tournament.
