Mixed doubles coach Nova Widianto has called on shuttlers Chen Tang Jie-Toh Ee Wei to end Malaysia’s 19-year wait for a medal in the mixed doubles in the World Championships.
Koo Kien Keat-Wong Pei Tty, who captured bronze in the 2006 edition in Madrid, have been the country’s sole medallists in the mixed doubles in the world meet so far.
Nova has set Tang Jie-Ee Wei a minimum target of reaching the last four in the tournament this time from Aug 25-31 in Paris, which will guarantee the duo at least a bronze.
00:00We hope that in World Champs we can get the maximum results.
00:13We haven't got the maximum results in the tournament.
00:22We know in this year, we haven't got the champion.
00:29We haven't got the champion yet.
00:34We haven't got the champion yet.
00:41We have to get the top of the court.
00:47Sometimes they are not able to handle the problems, there are some problems in the spot,
00:52there are several times the Konseleksis also put in the spot,
00:57so there are problems in the spot,
01:00so the tournament is not able to handle the top,
01:04so we can't really play from the beginning,
01:08so they must be able to handle the top when they are playing well,
01:14but they must still try to win first,
01:17sometimes they are not good,
01:19they are like crazy,
01:24all the top players are not always there,
01:29but they still can be able to handle it,
01:35so that's what I'm saying,
01:36that's just the character in the spot,
01:39if there are technical issues, I may not have a problem,
01:42we have a few times,
01:44and now Konseleksis has an idea to handle it.
01:49For players 4,
01:51I already told them,
01:53they are just the character,
01:55they are character very strong to be able to win,
01:58so sometimes they are just there,
02:00so if we say they are not able to win,
02:03then we are not able to win,
02:04hopefully in the training,
02:07we try to win for some of the fights,
02:09the actor will win first,
02:12to see their character,
02:13the character will win them all,
02:15so if we don't want to win in the tournament,
02:18in the training,
02:19you must also try to win first.
02:21If in the training,
02:22if it's a problem,
02:24we usually deal with the problem,
02:26so maybe the chance they get to deal with it.
02:28Can you tell us about what problems they face in this year?
02:58Kadang-kadang ada macam apa ya, kurang confidence sekarang, mungkin ada, nanti kalau sudah momennya sudah balik, saya rasa mereka harus bisa balik lagi lah, karena secara teknis mereka harusnya tidak ada masalah.
