PETALING JAYA: Hendrawan (pic) had hoped to win his third Olympics medal as a coach with three different players but it did not happen in Tokyo due to several reasons.

Hendrawan’s charge and reigning All-England champion Lee Zii Jia, who had all the credentials to challenge for a medal, lost to 2016 Rio Olympics champion Chen Long of China in the men’s singles last 16 in Tokyo last week.
