All eyes are on Malaysia's shuttlers - the country's biggest prospects to bring home that elusive gold medal - as the fight for the podium heats up in Paris. They've proven their mettle against the stacked competition so far in the group stage; with a victorious start from Lee Zii Jia, men's doubles pair Aaron Chia and Soh Wooi Yik quickly securing their quarter-final slot, mixed doubles pair Chen Tang Jie and Toh Ee Wei making their presence known in the group stage, duo Pearly Tan and Thinaah Muralitharan smashing their way through the notorious "group of death", and a remarkable comeback and Olympic debut from singles shuttler Goh Jin Wei as she vies for her own spot in a fast-intensifying quarter-final.

Journalist Fabian Mark Peter breaks down their performances so far, sizes up the competition our shuttlers will be facing as they enter the quarter finals, and gives us his take on their medal prospects and what we can expect to see on the courts of La Chapelle Arena.
