Badminton: Lee uncertain about Olympic form
The world number two lost the top ranking to archrival Lin Dan of China last month
KUALA LUMPUR:
Malaysian badminton star Lee Chong Wei said he has not fully recovered from an ankle injury and is unsure of whether he will be in top form for London, his last chance to win an Olympic gold medal. The world number two lost the top ranking to archrival Lin Dan of China last month after missing two tournaments. “I’m not sure I can reach top form in time,” said Lee. “I cannot say I have 100 per cent recovered. I still have three weeks. I will concentrate on my game.”
