The 25-year-old is the second Malaysian to win a BWF World Tour men’s singles title since Lee Chong Wei.

Lee Zii Jia ensured that the poor Tokyo Olympics 2020 outing is looked past by the board and the fans by medalling in major tournaments in 2022. And he has started the 2023 season in a promising manner, which, of course, includes his performances in the ongoing Sudirman Cup 2023.

Lee Zii Jia may not be the second coming of the great Lee Chong Wei, but he has done enough to put Malaysia on the world map of men’s singles badminton once again. And with the likes of Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik, Ong Yew Sin-Teo Ee Yi and Pearly Tan-Thinaah Muralitharan, Malaysian badminton looks set to get back to the highs of the Rio Olympics in Paris next year.
