SEPANG: Low Zi Yu is an extraordinary talent who needs careful nurturing, says national junior women's doubles coach Amelia Anscelly.

Amelia believes the 16-year-old's understanding of badminton and maturity set her apart from her peers.

Her assessment follows Zi Yu's breakthrough with Genevie Lim at the World Junior Championships in Cairo, where they became the first Malaysian pair to win the girls' doubles title.

"She is an extraordinary player, in my view. We need to look after her," said Amelia at KLIA here today.
