PETALING JAYA: National men’s singles ace Lee Zii Jia (pic) believes he has proven a point after giving a better account of himself at the Sudirman Cup mixed team championship in Vantaa, Finland.

The 23-year-old pulled off an epic 22-20, 21-19 victory against world No. 1 Kento Momota of Japan on Saturday to avenge his earlier defeat to the latter during the group stage.
