Datin Wong Mew Choo (born 1 May 1983) is a Malaysian former badminton singles player.

2003

She first came to prominence in the 2003 Southeast Asian Games badminton women's singles, where she won the gold medal, along the way beating Singapore's Li Li, then the reigning Commonwealth Games Champion.

Wong, who was unseeded at the China Open Superseries and had not won any major championship since the 2003 Southeast Asian Games, delivered a brilliant performance in Guangzhou, China by beating all the top three female shuttlers from China in succession, starting with world champion Zhu Lin, two-time Olympic Champion Zhang Ning, and finally world number one Xie Xingfang in three sets in the final.

She became the one of only a few non-Chinese (overseas Chinese) winners of the China Open.

She also became the first Malaysian woman to lift an international title outside the country.

Wong started the year by reaching the semifinal of Malaysia Superseries before losing to Zhu Lin once again.

2005

She competed at the 2005 World Championships in Anaheim and reached the second round.

She managed two quarterfinal appearances, in the Denmark Open and 2005 Asian Championships.

She managed to reach the semifinal of Indonesia Open, losing a tough encounter with Mia Audina.

Later that year, she qualified again for the 2005 Southeast Asian Games women's singles badminton final, but had to settle for silver, losing to Adriyanti Firdasari of Indonesia.

In the XVIII Commonwealth Games in Melbourne, she helped Malaysia clinch the gold medal in the mixed team event, taking the crucial point against England's Tracey Hallam that gave Malaysia the lead 2–1.

Eventually the team won 3–1 over England for the first time in Games history.

However, Hallam exacted revenge in the women's singles final.

In the World Championships, she reached the third round before losing to Zhang Ning.

Her best achievement of the year was in the Korea Open semifinals, losing to eventual winner Zhu Lin.

She also reached the China Open quarterfinals.

The year 2007 was Wong's best year.

She started by reaching the finals of the Malaysia Superseries, defeating big names like Pi Hongyan and Xu Huaiwen on her way.

At the All England Superseries, she beat Chinese Lu Lan to become the first Malaysian women's singles player to qualify to the women's singles quarterfinal.

Lu claimed revenge in the 2007 Asian Championships.

Her biggest win was at the 2007 BWF World Championships third round, where she shocked China's Xie Xingfang in straight sets to become the first Malaysian women's singles player to reach the quarter-finals of the World Championships in Kuala Lumpur.

However, her progress was stopped by Zhu Lin, who went on to take the title.
