Zii Jia rejects RTG again but Hannah respects his decision
Happy family: Lee Zii Jia has a full support team comprising a physiotherapist, a strength and conditioning coach, two sparring partners, as well as oversight from coach Yeoh Kay Bin and Team LZJ manager Lee Zii Yii. PUTRAJAYA: National men's singles ace Lee Zii Jia may not be part of the Road to Gold (RTG) programme, but his insights are proving valuable in shaping support mechanisms for other professional athletes. While national athletes remain under the care of their respective sports associations, most professional athletes have to rely on their own funds to cover expenses such as competition fees, training equipment, injury treatment and more. Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh, who also chairs the RTG committee, said Zii Jia had offered constructive input on areas such as injury management, tournament exposure and training facilities during their meeting on June 3. Although the Paris 2024 Olympic bronze medallist has once again declined to join the programme, he did so to prioritise his recovery and allow the spot to go to other more eligible athletes. Unlike other professional athletes, Zii Jia has a full support team comprising a physiotherapist, a strength and conditioning coach, two sparring partners, as well as oversight from coach Yeoh Kay Bin and Team LZJ manager Lee Zii Yii. 'I want to thank Zii Jia. Through our discussion, we received a lot of useful input on how to better support professional athletes,' said Hannah after the RTG athletes contract signing ceremony in Putrajaya yesterday. 'He gave thoughtful feedback on the RTG programme, but the final decision rests with the athlete. He chose not to join us, and we fully respect his decision.' Despite his absence from the programme, Hannah reiterated her commitment to working with Zii Jia and any other professional athlete in the pursuit of Olympic glory. 'I want to make it clear that the RTG door remains open. If not this year, then perhaps next year or the year after as long as it's before 2028. If any professional athlete wants to engage with us, we are ready to support them. 'Our goal is aligned with the athletes we want to help them bring home Malaysia's first Olympic gold medal,' she added. The input could prove useful for the four professional shuttlers, specifically men's doubles world No. 1 Goh Sze Fei-Nur Izzuddin Rumsani and mixed doubles pair Goh Soon Huat-Shevon Lai Jemie. Both pairs have yet to confirm their participation in the RTG programme, although Hannah is confident the matter would be resolved soon. 'They have had two discussions with the RTG coordinator, Datuk Stuart Ramalingam, and still need time to align a few matters. There are some remaining concerns from their side, which Stuart will address as soon as possible,' said Hannah. Currently, 12 athletes have been listed in the new batch of the Road to Gold (RTG) programme, with eight of them coming from badminton. The list is led by Paris Olympic bronze medallists Aaron Chia-Soh Wooi Yik, women's doubles pair Pearly Tan-M. Thinaah, mixed doubles duo Chen Tang Jie-Toh Ee Wei, and men's doubles pair Man Wei Chong-Tee Kai Wun, who are making their debut in the programme. The remaining athletes include weightlifter Mohd Aniq Kasdan, track cyclists Mohd Shah Firdaus Sahrom and Nurul Izzah Izzati Asri, and squash player S. Sivasangari. Meanwhile, Sivasangari teammates, Ng Eain Yow has been placed on the RTG fast-track list along with three archers, Ariana Nur Dania Zairi, Syaqiera Mashayikh and Nurul Azreena Fazil.

'Pearly-Thinaah must not be distracted from LA28 by contract issue'
KUALA LUMPUR: Amid the noise and uncertainty swirling around them, Rosman Razak said he and women's doubles Pearly Tan-M. Thinaah are focused on only one thing — the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. While Pearly-Thinaah are embroiled in a protracted contract wrangle with BAM, national women's doubles head coach Rosman insists that this issue should not affect their Olympic gold pursuit. Their contracts with BAM expired in December, and both parties have yet to sign a new deal despite negotiations. As the world No. 4 pair enjoy a strong run of form, Rosman said they must not lose sight of the ultimate goal. Pearly-Thinaah have impressed in recent weeks, winning the Thailand Open, reaching the Malaysia Masters semi-finals, Singapore Open quarter-finals and Indonesia Open final. However, Rosman admitted the contract issue, especially on social media, has been a distraction, and dealing with it, has become part of the coach's job. "The goal is still LA28. That's why BAM brought me in. I remain committed to that objective," he said yesterday. "Many factors can affect performance. My job is to help them manage everything — training, life, and pressure. "We try to tune out online comments, but they can get to the players. That's why coaching today is more than just planning a programme — it's about managing people." Rosman said a player's character is often tested more in defeat than in victory. "People keep quiet when you win, but when you lose, everyone has something to say. That's when we work harder. My job is to ensure they stay focused and professional."

Malaysia reach two milestones in world badminton rankings
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia have achieved two historic breakthroughs in the latest BWF rankings, with Pearly Tan–M. Thinaah becoming the nation's first women's pair in 16 years to crack the world's top three, and Goh Sze Fei–Nur Izzuddin Rumsani and Aaron Chia–Soh Wooi Yik creating a maiden 1–2 in men's doubles. Pearly–Thinaah's one-rung climb to a career-high No. 3 came on the back of their impressive runners-up finish at the Indonesia Open last Sunday, where they pushed China's world No. 1 Liu Sheng Shu–Tan Ning to the limit in an epic final before going down 23-25, 21-12, 21-19. The last time a Malaysian women's pair ranked this high was in 2009, when Chin Eei Hui–Wong Pei Tty were world No. 1. It is the first time in history that Malaysia have had two men's pairs occupy the top two spots simultaneously —Sze Fei–Izzuddin held firm at No. 1, while Olympic bronze medallists Aaron–Wooi Yik returned to their career-best No. 2, despite a first-round exit in Jakarta. Aaron–Wooi Yik took advantage of Denmark's Kim Astrup–Anders Skaarup Rasmussen's failure to defend their semi-final points from last year, allowing the Malaysians to leapfrog them in the world rankings. While Pearly–Thinaah's rise is a proud milestone, the world No. 1 spot remains some distance away. Sheng Shu-Tan Ning hold a commanding lead at the summit of nearly 20,000 points. Still, the Malaysian duo have a realistic shot at overtaking current No. 2 Chiharu Shida–Nami Matsuyama of Japan when the World Tour resumes at next month's Japan Open. Pearly–Thinaah came agonisingly close to overtaking Shida–Matsuyam this week but fell just short of the points needed following their second-place finish in Jakarta. In addition to the top two pairs, Malaysia also have depth in men's doubles, with Man Wei Chong–Tee Kai Wun holding their ground at No. 7, while Wan Arif Junaidi–Yap Roy King (No. 24), Nur Mohd Azriyn Ayub–Tan Wee Kiong (No. 25), and Ong Yew Sin–Teo Ee Yi (No. 31) all remain within the top 32. In mixed doubles, Chen Tang Jie–Toh Ee Wei stayed at No. 4 after their semi-final showing in Jakarta and are inching closer to the No. 3 spot held by Hong Kong's Tang Chun Man–Tse Ying Suet, while veterans Goh Soon Huat–Shevon Lai retained their position at No. 5. Hoo Pang Ron–Cheng Su Yin are the other Malaysian pair inside the top 32. They are currently ranked No. 13. In men's singles, Lee Zii Jia, who is recovering from injury, fell six spots to No. 21 and is set for a further drop in next week's update as his 2024 Australian Open points—worth 9,200 from a Super 500 title— will come off the 52-week rolling cycle. However, the 27-year-old's tournament eligibility remains unaffected as he currently holds a protected ranking of No. 9. This allows him direct entry into any World Tour event for four months, beginning with the Japan Open next month, which will mark his comeback since the All England in March. Meanwhile, Leong Jun Hao dropped two spots to No. 27 after failing to match his quarter-final run at the Indonesia Open last year. In women's singles, Malaysia continue to have no representative inside the top 32. Goh Jin Wei remains the nation's highest-ranked player at world No. 47.
