    Lee Wan Wah's biography in the Athens Olympics website stated that he started playing at 13. I wonder which is which.... It also said Choong started playing at 10.

    It's not really about the age they start at, it's about how much time they spent training and practicing

    to be an ordinary pro, one needs commitment and correct techniques from day one; to be a top pro, one needs talent
