PETALING JAYA: Lee Zii Jia has never failed to reach at least the semi-finals of the All-England.
The independent men’s singles shuttler finished in the last four in 2020 and 2022, and won the title in 2021.The world No. 4 is currently on a poor run of form and is badly in need of a boost.
Yesterday, the 24-year-old showed glimpses of his best form when he swept aside Thailand’s world No. 33 Sitthikom Thammasin 21-12, 21-15 at the Utilita Arena in Birmingham.Zii Jia will likely face Japan’s world No. 15 Kenta Nishimoto next for a place in the last eight. Lakshya, who has seen his ranking drop from sixth to 19th after failing to go past the quarter-finals of any of his tournaments since reaching last year’s All-England final, will take on Denmark’s world No. 18 Anders Antonsen in the second round today.
