PETALING JAYA: Malaysian badminton sensation Lee Zii Jia is taking a careful approach to his much-anticipated return to the court.

With fans eagerly awaiting his return, Zii Jia's priority is to ensure that he is fully recovered before stepping back into competitive play. This means that although he might miss the US Open, his focus remains on making a triumphant return to the court, ready to wow audiences and reclaim his status among the elite in badminton.
As Zii Jia continues his recovery, supporters remain hopeful. A strong and healthy comeback is what everyone is rooting for, proving that sometimes, taking a step back can set the stage for an even bigger leap forward.
