Unexpected result..happy with it!

just now the men single final of the Wilson Swiss Open 2009 just ended…the most surprising thing is that Lee Chong Wei defeated Lin Dan in just two straight games (21 – 16, 21 – 16).

It was the sixth time in 18 meetings that Chong Wei managed to beat Lin Dan.

latest photo taken from the games by The Star:

Lee Chong Wei from Malaysia who is the current world number one due to his ‘always’ appearance in final of badminton tournaments…while Lin Dan from China is always absent for tournaments despite his ultimate skill…

Pictures of Lee Chong Wei and Lin Dan (from www.badmintonasia.org):

Both of them always met together, especially in the final…notably in the Beijing 2008, when Lee Chong Wei had too much pressure and being defeated by Lin Dan awefully…He also had been lost to Lin Dan, the Super Dan several times..winning him only few times…

But now in Swiss 2009, due to luck and better skill, Lee Chong Wei won over him in about 52 minutes time…quite unexpected result..but I’m very happy with it..just too excited to see him win because it is very hard to see him winning over Super Dan!

Both are almost perfect in badminton…good attacking, smashing, defensing and tricking skills…sometimes badminton depends on luck too, especially on ‘in’ and ‘out’, corners and on net. Congratz to Chong Wei again! It seems that Lin Dan felt angry again..he doesn’t want to play seriously anymore as Chong Wei has his match point…he is always like that..when he wins, he will smile and be proud, when he loses, he will shows his angry face and sometimes flies his racket…

every competition has its victory and failure..just accept it, Lin Dan! Chong Wei really did well this time, ending China proudness in badminton eventhough they are really great in badminton field! Just now in prize presentation, it seems like no money is given to winners…only souvenirs, is it…no stage for winners to stand on it somemore…haiz…

anyway, both are real good badminton players..my favourites!

one more, one more….

Our men doubles, Koo Kien Keat and Tan Boon Heong from Malaysia won over Boe Mathias and Mogensen Carsten from Denmark: 21 – 14, 21 – 18.

Won in two straight games again in just 39 minutes, I think this time our Malaysia pair did not pretty well but still can win due to a lot of net errors by the Denmark pair…Malaysia got skills in badminton too but Denmark got ultimate strength in smashing..luckily, Malaysia won this time!

Haha….Malaysia got two champions out of five, in men single and men doubles, others all won by China for sure…luckily this time the games is not dominated again by China like in previous All England 2009 when China grabs all five titles..this time, China with three and Malaysia with two! Bravo to Malaysia again!

Let us show to China that they are not always the dominant in badminton, beware of Malaysian players…haha….All the best to Malaysian players in future!
