While Lee Zii Jia posted “Selamat Datang” meaning “Welcome” in Malay languague, Antonsen jokingly replied to the post: “I’m looking like I drank all those bottles of wine behind us 😑😂”

Meanwhile, many badminton fans expressed their concern about Lee Zii Jia’s injury, with one commenting: “Focus on recovering first so you can go further. Keep it up, Lee Zii Jia, and wishing you a speedy recovery.”

The 27-year-old Lee Zii Jia announced on social media on the evening of January 3 that he had decided to withdraw from the Malaysia Open.

Ranked 6th in the world, Lee sustained a ligament injury in his right ankle during last month’s year-end BWF World Tour Finals and has not yet fully recovered. As a result, he had to pull out of the Malaysia Open, the opening tournament of the 2025 BWF World Tour season, which is a prestigious Super 1000 event held on home soil.

While the Malaysia Open, scheduled from January 7 to 12, sees 27-year-old Antonsen aiming to defend his title, he and Lee Zii Jia have been close friends for years. Despite being unable to compete due to his injury, Lee made sure to extend his hospitality by treating Antonsen to a meal upon his arrival.
