Zhijie died at a hospital later on.

Badminton Asia said Zhijie was taken to an ambulance less than two minutes after he collapsed.

"Badminton Asia, PBSI (Badminton Association of Indonesia) and the organising committee are immensely saddened and expressed their deepest condolences to Zhang's parents, family, and Chinese Badminton Association (CBA)," Badminton Asia said in a statement. "The world of badminton has lost a talented player."

Badminton players and officials in Yogyakarta paid tribute to Zhang by holding a minute of silence on the court Monday morning before the quarterfinals.

Staff members have been criticized on social media for seemingly a lack of urgency, but the Chinese association said its team’s leader, coach, doctor, translator and the tournament medical staff acted quickly after Zhang appeared to faint on the court.

"We feel deeply distressed over the unfortunate death of Zhang Zhijie from a sudden illness while competing in an international competition," the statement said. "We express our sincere gratitude to all sectors of the society for the concern and help given to Zhang Zhijie. We will do our best to provide help to Zhang Zhijie’s family."
