Malaysia are now the proud owners of two bronze medals at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
National men’s singles professional shuttler Lee Zii Jia delivered the latest bronze when he bounced back from a game down to outlast India’s Lakshya Sen 13-21, 21-16, 21-11 in an energy-sapping 71-minute third-placing playoff at the Porte de La Chapelle Arena today.
But, as they say, when the going gets tough, the tough gets going. And that’s exactly what Zii Jia did as he reeled off nine points in a row to take a 12-8 lead. This is Zii Jia’s second win over Lakshya in five meetings and it ended his rival’s hopes of becoming the first male shuttler from India to win an Olympic medal.
