PETALING JAYA: Women’s singles head coach Indra Wijaya has thrown down the gauntlet to three Malaysian shuttlers.

The 47-year-old Indonesian wants S. Kisona, Goh Jin Wei and Eoon Qi Xuan to reach the semi-finals and even win the title at this week’s Spanish International Challenge.

Two-time world junior champion Jin Wei fared fairly well in the fifth-tier Orleans Masters before being ousted by All-England runner-up Pornpaweee Chochuwong of Thailand in last-eight. The absence of world No. 22 and top seed Yvonne Li of Germany has boosted Kisona’s chances of reaching the final from the upper half of the draw.The SEA Games’s gold champion’s first real test should be against Beatriz Corrales of Spain in the quarter-finals, followed by fifth seed Jordan Hart of Poland as her potential opponent in the last four.

As for Jin Wei, her path looks clear all the way until the quarter-finals where she will most probably cross swords with Polikarpova.
