KUALA LUMPUR: World No. 10 Lee Zii Jia is on track to win his second World Tour title in as many weeks after advancing to the semi-finals of the Malaysia Masters today.
In a gruelling quarter-final match lasting 82 minutes, Zii Jia triumphed over his good friend Anders Antonsen of Denmark 21-15, 19-21, 21-11.
This victory marked Zii Jia's third win against Antonsen in eight encounters.
Next up, Zii Jia will face Hong Kong's Angus Ng in a highly anticipated rematch of last Sunday's Thailand Open final, where Zii Jia secured a convincing 21-11, 21-10 victory, and claiming his second crown at the event.
Angus also picked up the momentum from last week too, clinching an emphatic 21-13, 21-15 win over China's Li Shi Feng.
