In a recent interview, Myisha’s father, Mohd Khairul Hood, 50, has expressed his hope that the achievement of the second child of three siblings, mostly known as Caca, would inspire her to achieve even greater success in the future.
According to Mohd Khairul, a resident of Pasir Gudang, this is a promising start for Caca, who began playing badminton at the age of eight, but she still has a long way to go.
He also added that as a result, he is hoping that this accomplishment would inspire Caca to strive even harder to achieve success after success.
This is her first senior level win on the international stage, and it could not have come at a better time for her to prepare for the Uber Cup tournament in Bangkok, Thailand, from May 8 to 15.
