KUALA LUMPUR: Independent men’s singles shuttler Lee Zii Jia toppled Anders Antonsen to clear his quarter-final hurdle but his victory came with a price as he is doubtful for the last four of the Malaysian Masters today.

The world No. 10 Zii Jia fought hard to beat Denmark’s world No. 4 Antonsen 21-15, 19-21, 21-11 in an energy-draining match that lasted for 83 minutes at the Axiata Arena in Bukit Jalil yesterday.
