PETALING JAYA: Former doubles ace Tan Boon Heong knows how tough life is as an independent player as he lived as one for five years.

That’s why he understands world No. 4 Lee Zii Jia’s early journey as a professional, which is strewn with challenges.“Zii Jia’s recent results are not that good and he feels low,” said Boon Heong, who was an All-England winner with Koo Kien Keat in 2007.“Since he decided to represent the country and become an independent player, he has to withstand the pressure and turn it into motivation.”

In the recently concluded Asian Mixed Team Championships, Zii Jia defeated Bharath Latheesh of the United Arab Emirates and China’s Lei Lan Xi but went down to India’s H. S. Prannoy.
