Former Malaysian mixed doubles ace Tan Kian Meng has begun a new chapter — as a guest coach for the England team!
“This is a valuable experience. I never planned to coach, but this opportunity changed my mind.”
Tan retired after All England 2025 and was invited to coach England’s Hemming/Van Leeuwen in training and international tournaments. He’s also assisting England’s MD pair Ben Lane/Sean Vendy and is expected to stay until the China Masters in September.
From reviewing products to coaching on the world stage — Tan’s future in badminton looks bright!
