KUALA LUMPUR: National number one men's singles shuttler Lee Zii Jia revealed on Wednesday (Jan 26) that he had been considering turning professional since last year.

The 23-year-old, who hails from Alor Setar, Kedah, said this came about after his inconsistent performance in three tournaments in Thailand, starting with the Yonex Thailand Open, followed by the Toyota Thailand Open and the Badminton World Federation World Tour Finals that were all held in Bangkok last January.

World number seven Zii Jia also confirmed that he would form his own team, which will be based in Malaysia, as a professional player, besides promising to give his commitment to representing the country in major tournaments such as the Thomas Cup, 2022 Asian Games and 2024 Paris Olympics.
