Tired.
Sun, 01 Nov 2009
Ever since Lin Dan and i played our first match against each other, the media and the public has always dubbed them as a duel between the two of us, how we are enemies, etc.
When, it was never about that to begin with.
Though we may not share a close relationship as i am with Chong Wei or Peter, Lin Dan and i share a respect and admiration on both of our abilities on and off the court.
Personally, it is a comfort to know that there is a person who share the same "duty and responsibility" from the hopes of our respectives countries.
What we have is a healthy competition on court between two competing players, the same that i have with Chong Wei, Peter, or Bao Chun Lai and other players that i have and will play against.
Lin Dan is, in my opinion, perhaps one of the most complete player in badminton today (aside from chong wei, the datuk, of course, lol); his fitness, his tactics, footwork, are an all around factors that makes Lin Dan, Lin Dan.
Truthfully, tonight was a let down for me. i played ok, but ok is never enough when you're playing against an opponent such as Lin Dan.
The best player tonight was Lin Dan, but who knows the next time we'll meet, it will be my turn. That's the way the game of badminton is, one day you're winning, the next day your losing. .
I think, besides our respect and admiration for each other, that is one of the things that we have first-hand experience with; Nothing is ever sure in badminton.
on that note, i would like to thank all of your support, terima kasih banyak atas dukungannya (in Paris and wherever you are located), i am grateful for it. I do apologize that i haven't been able to repay the support with as much a win that i want to achieve. as i say, perseverance and patience is the key, though it may be awhile, hopefully it would be worth it.
I'm going to stroll around the city for awhile, relaxing my head and body; tomorrow will be going back home and straight to practice preparing for the next tournament.

It's nice to see how you wrote in the essay above...I have to say I really admire your spirit towards badminton. And strongly agreed with your statement, "...Nothing is ever sure in badminton." It's absolutely true not only in badminton, but it applies in our life too - we'll never sure what's going to happen in a future, year; min, or the next second. So, hopefully god luck in Hong Kong Super Series! For sure, I'll get sb to buy me YOUR BRAND shirt. calvin c from canada (met u in Macau Open...not sure if u remembered) Calvin - a380tovhhh@yahoo.com [Tue, 10 Nov 2009] |

As the video I have seen these days about your competitions,I think,the straight stroke is the important skill which you may work more harder in the future ,that's my point ,I truelly hope that , you will win your confident back next time . China [Tue, 10 Nov 2009] |
