Bad news from Indonesia for indie Soong


PETALING JAYA: Independent shuttler Soong Joo Ven will be under pressure to maintain his ranking once the world badminton circuit resumes later this year.

The 24-year-old will have one fewer event to play in as the Indonesia BA (PBSI) have decided to cancel the lower-ranked Indonesian Masters, slated for Sept 29-Oct 4, and focus instead on running the higher-ranked Indonesian Open that week.
