I was in my school library today enjoying the cool aircon in my free period today and i decided to read the sports new from the newspaper..... I found out about Gopi's disapointing defeat and Lin Dan's hard earned victory and several other stuff. But i saw the results of the Ji VS Yong match as 7-2 ret..... For those of you who went, prehaps Modious, Budi or maybe Yudhi, what happened to Yong? It must have been something serious for him to have retired after 1 set.....
Yong pulled his left thigh muscle. Poor fellow, I have a feeling his career in badminton is coming to an end, but I pray that I am wrong.
Gro, What do you mean 'you have a feeling'. Of course the old geyser's finished and only his fans and he would not admit it. Partly old age, partly under-achieving ache. JC
after he lost the 1st. set,he turned around to face his coach Kwan YM, flashed a wry smile, then went up to Xinpeng who happened to be just across the net & raised his right hand .Xinpeng looked surprised but knew Yong's intention almost instantly and sportingly shook his hand.Yong then approached the umpire, of course to let him know he was retiring.
