BWF profile

Lee Shun Yang (Chinese: 李洵扬; pinyin: Lǐ Xúnyáng; born 27 June 2001) is a Malaysian badminton player. He is a triple medalist at the SEA Games, winning two silver medals in the men's team event in 2021 and 2023, as well as a bronze in the men's singles event in 2023.

Career

Lee competed in the 2019 World Junior Championships in October, where he lost in the first round to Joakim Oldorff of Finland. In September 2021, he won his first senior title at the Hellas International. In January 2022, Lee reached the semi-finals of the Ukraine Open. A few months later, he helped the Malaysian men's team to clinch silver at the 2021 SEA Games.

In May 2023, Lee made his second appearance at the SEA Games. He won a second consecutive silver medal in the men's team event and a bronze medal in the men's singles event. After the SEA Games, Lee suffered four early-round exits throughout the second half of the year. He finished off the 2023 season by participating in the Malaysia International Challenge, losing to Riki Takei from Japan in the quarter-finals. Due to his gloomy results, he was dropped from the national team in December but was offered to become a full-time sparring partner for the national team players.

In 2024, Lee joined Lee Zii Jia's personal team, Team LZJ, as a sparring partner.
