The Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM) is refusing to put any unnecessary pressure on players heading to Tokyo 2020 as it sticks to its goal of achieving the country’s long-awaited first Olympic gold medal in the sport at Paris 2024.
Malaysia has achieved eight badminton medals since the sport made its debut on the Olympic programme at Barcelona 1992, but has so far failed to secure gold.
The nation has won 11 Olympic medals in all, but none were gold.
Lee Chong Wei holds three men’s singles silver medals, with last coming at Rio 2016 where Goh V Shem and Tan Wee Kiong and Chan Peng Soon and Goh Liu Ying claimed medals of the same colour in men’s doubles and mixed doubles respectively.
