Kim Ha Na of Korea was also creating some of her best results in India in 2014, scooping two silvers in women’s and mixed doubles, with partners Jung Kyung Eun and Ko Sung Hyun respectively. But she will be preparing for the Superseries Premier leveled Maybank Malaysia Open the week after and will not come back to defend her points.
