@TeamLZJ@zongyenyen Ini semua akan diungkit semula pada tahun 2028 setelah LZJ menang gold Olimpik LA. Perjalanan dia yang penuh liku untuk mendapatkan gold akan kekal dalam lipatan sejarah. Maju terus & dont give up👍💪
I would like to end the day by saying Thank You.
Thank You for showing the kind of love to an athlete who has gone through a lot especially in the past year.
It was something so pure and special that many only wanted to see him perform without the expectation of a result.
I want you all to feel that your faith will be rewarded.
Despite the challenges he keeps on going and gets back up because each and everyone of you.
Post Paris24 I’ve not said a lot, partly because I’ve already said all I wanted and I believe the community is in a better place.
But today is an exception.
Thank You.

Successful athletes are, by definition, supremely fit individuals. The display of mental fortitude and athletic ability while battling for supremacy in the sporting arena means we tend to place them on a pedestal, believing they are mentally and physically superior to the rest of us mere mortals.
But while that image helps cultivate the revered star status, it clouds our expectations and conceals the stark reality that every athlete is also a human being with the same frailties and vulnerabilities as the rest of us.
Not only do athletes suffer more injuries than the average person as they continually test their physical capabilities, but when they can’t train or compete due to injury, their whole purpose and identity as an athlete is compromised, which is mentally extremely challenging.
A little over a year ago at the #WorldTourFinals, while Lee Zii Jia was playing some of his best #badminton, he suffered a debilitating ankle injury. Since then, he’s made 2 aborted attempts at return to competition, playing just 7 matches throughout the whole of 2025.
This week the #Olympic Bronze medallist returns to competition at the #MalaysiaOpen2026. And after so long out with injury, the return certainly won’t be easy, not least due to the mental torment every athlete endures while unable to compete.
I also know from bitter experience, after several surgeries following ruptured ACLs in both knees, the expectations from others to immediately perform as you did before the injury is both a heavy burden and totally unrealistic.
So, whilst I, like most badminton fans, eagerly anticipate Lee’s return, we should also be mindful that we need to help and encourage any athlete in their valiant return from injury, not chastise and criticise. We need to understand the universal struggles of every human being in overcoming adversity. Returning athletes deserve both compassion and admiration for the courage and perseverance to keep fighting while on the seemingly relentless road to rehabilitation.
And above all we need to understand and be sympathetic to the fact the mental pain endured during recovery is often greater than the physical pain of the injury itself.

A year ago, Lee Zii Jia was forced to retire from World Tour Finals after a sudden ankle injury while competing against Li Shi Feng. This final tour, with his previous coach, Wong Tat Meng was supposed to be a happy farewell gift unexpectedly turned out with an unfortunate ending
