ICYMI: Ban to be lifted on Malaysian badminton ace Lee Zii Jia

The 23-year-old cut ties with Malaysia's badminton association this month to play as an independent, but the body hit back by prohibiting him from competing in tournaments for two years.

After crisis talks with the Badminton Association of Malaysia , Lee said he had received president Norza Zakaria's "blessings" to go independent."I hope this conclusion unites us as Malaysians and badminton fans." The body's deputy president Jaharbedeen Mohamed Yunoos confirmed an agreement had been reached to lift the ban, and said the terms would be disclosed next week.

BWF sanctions all important tournaments, and each country's domestic association is responsible for registering players -- meaning BAM was able to block Lee from competing.
