National coach Deen Heshaam Tan Abdullah says she was invited but did not respond here
However Thieviya and her dad-cum-coach Selvarajoo are denying this.
Selvarajoo, who formerly coached the national team, had initially thought Thieviya was not good enough hence Lawn Tennis Association of Malaysia had not invited her.
"If they don't want her around, just say it. Don't have to say we didn't respond," said Selvarajoo.
