:MAS most famous player Lee Zii Jia quits from national team and being a professional player. His move angers Malaysian badminton federation and it declared it will not help Lee register any BWF events for two years as long as it requires registration by national federation.  
 

But its decision is allow to appeal so I guess these two parts are still bargaining. 

Now after backlash from international and local community, Lee Zii Jia and Goh Jin Wei are cleared to play independently. Of course they had to write a social media post thanking the kindness of Malaysian Badminton Association president and the Prime Minister

What will happen to the fate of this player is unknown for now.

JAKARTA – Chinese men's doubles badminton player Di Zijian is suspected of being involved in match-fixing. That happened against the Indonesian pair at the Denmark Open last year.

 

This allegation surfaced after Zijian's ex-girlfriend uploaded a picture of a snippet of their conversation in 2021. The conversation took place the day before the competition took place.

 

The screenshot was then used by Planet Badminton as a basis for reporting on the alleged match fixing.

 

The conversation showed Zijian chose to lose the first set in the first round match of the Danish Open against the Indonesian pair Muhammad Shohibul Fikri/Bagas Maulana.

 

In return he will get 100 thousand renminbi dollars, equivalent to Rp. 225 million. However, the truth of the screenshot of the chat has not yet been confirmed.

 

However, this conjecture was strengthened by the final result that Zijian and his partner Wang Chang obtained. At that time they immediately lost in straight sets 6-21, 19-21 at the hands of Fikri/Bagas.

 

When referring to the final result, all of the conjectures seemed to match what Zijian had discussed with his ex-girlfriend in the conversation.

Besides, Zijian actually didn't like to partner with players from Zhejiang. This strengthens the allegation because Wang, who in fact is his co-star, is a player born in Ningbo, Zhejiang.

 

Zijian and Wang Chang were champions of the World Championships and Asian Junior Championships in 2018. Then in 2019 they became the main rivals for the young Indonesian couple, Leo Rolly Carnando/Daniel Marthin.

 

If this conjecture was true then Zijian's career would likely be in jeopardy.

Di Zi Jian is a MD player. It is almost impossible for him to fix the match alone or purposely lose on his own. He may need the cooperation of his MD partner to be able to do that. That is why this match fixing case is really very suspicious till now.

As far as I know, Di Zi Jian is provisionally suspended for investigation. But his former partner Wang Chang is going to attend the up-coming tournaments with his new partner and Wang Chang stated he was innocent and not involved into the matching-fixing drama on his social media account. I think we will know the result soon. But quite surprisingly I thought this drama is very limited known by fans.

    • It may also be that Ceccerelli saw that the conditions in the Italian youth teams were very poor and that is why she insisted on setting up her own team (the results of young Italian skiers unfortunately confirm this). A private team will always be better than a team with 10-12 skiers with max. 3-4 coaches, a one doctor and a physiotherapist. Colturi is the only skier in her team and she has several coaches, a masseur, a doctor etc. Of course, it costs money, but since the parents are famous and have money + Red Bull got involved. I don't understand why she can't start for Italy again? Red Bull should care more that Colturi starts in Cortina under the Italian flag than the Albanian one + Red Bull, as a brand, always has a bigger sales market in Italy with a population of 60 million than in small Albania. I hope that this can still be reversed by next year. For this we need talks between the federation + Colturi's parents + Red Bull + possibly the Italian Olympic Committee. Colturi may be a skier equal to Brignone or even better in the future. We can't lose her, so we have to do now!
    • I`m very disappointed with this weekend. Only becouse of Ghiotto form I`m happy. Unfortunately, the women's team will not function well if Lollobrigida skips most of the training camps and Fontana starts alternately in short tack and long track. It will end with her not winning any medals here or there, because it`s already clear that it will be very difficult to achieve good results in long track. I hope that she understands this, because in short track she has a real chance of winning medals in the women's relay and the mixed relay but in long track not.
    • Tragic performance of the Italian women's team - last place and probably something bad happened at the start. There are so few starts in the team that it will be a problem to even qualify for the World Championships - 8 best teams. After Lollobrigida's return and Fontana's addition, I was counting on much more, but it seems that there are too few joint trainings. With individual quality, we have no right to lose to the Czechs without Sablikova, or anonymous Korea. And unfortunately this start will count for a lot, because there are only 2 more and our chances of playing at the World Championships are minimal. In my opinion with Fontana going from Short Track to Long Trackand vice versa, we won't be much use in the team. Here great teamwork is needed, not improvisation. As of today, there is very little chance that we will qualify the women's team for the games.
    • men advanced to Division A for the first time since 2018 (when they went 1-8). Don't expect much progress next year
    • Ok, but there we are talking about a person who has parents from different countries. Colturi has nothing to do with Albania.
    • There are few people here from Austria, Switzerland, Norway and Finland.
    • The worst editions in XXI century for us were Vancouver: 5 medals (only 1 gold for Razzoli's on the penultimate day) and Sochi: 8 medals (but no gold). Turin was already a prelude to this bad period, although the number of gold medals was ok. Overall we won fewer medals at home than in 2002 and this was probably the only case in the 21st century when the host country won fewer medals at home than 4 years earlier, either in summer or winter. In general the years 2008-2016 were very bad in our sport, both in summer and winter. Only 2018 in Korea was a slight rebuild + 2 fantastic summer editions in Tokyo and Paris. in Beijing 2022 we won a lot of medals - 17 but only 2 gold (If it weren't for Gogga's injury, I think it would have been 4 gold).
