PETALING JAYA: Gay Paree is one place that holds happy and joyful memories for Malaysia’s world No. 35 shuttler Liew Daren (pic).

The then 25-year-old reached the pinnacle of his career – by capturing the only Superseries title with a 21-18, 21-17 victory over Denmark’s Viktor Axelsen – in the final of the French Open at the Pierre de Coubertin Stadium in Paris.

“If only I could play with my current state of mind at that time, the outcome could have been different.” “I’m always thrilled to be back here in Paris. The moment I stepped into the venue, it brings back all the great memories nine years ago,” said Daren. “Hopefully I can roll back the years and rediscover some of my form in 2012 in the very same arena this week.”

“It’s the same against Kanta this week. Our battles have always been close and I believe I stand a chance against him.”Zii Jia is the other Malaysian men’s singles in the fray, facing childhood rival Loh Kean Yew of Singapore in the first round.
