Phau playing with great sportsmanship . That's great isn't it ...... We need more Badminton players like Phau playing with great sportsmanship. .
Talking about sportsmanship... Fabrice Santoro is such a sore of loser when Roddick rocketed a serve in front of his face
in Tennis forums, ATP & WTA I have left it last year Too tired, run & play almost every week, monday to sunday without break. Some time with 2 or 3 tournaments held in a week.
In the past when "rally points" didn't present, some badminton players did it too. If any wrong call to the opponent, they served wide or short to give back the ball to the opponent.
