http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/sports/2008-04/11/content_6610082.htm Follow the above link for a report of a bust up between Lin Dan and a Coach
Is this new news? The date on the report states 4/11/08 - I think this is 11th April and was discussed here: http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=54292&highlight=Lin+Dan+punched+Ji+Xinpeng
Wasn't this at the Korea Open 2008, or is it another incident.. Lin Dan seems to be destroying his reputation as a sportsman.
I picked info up elsewhwre and looked at the newspaper article. The date of the paper (ON LINE SHOWS TODAYS DATE.) Please remove this thread if it is old news and accept my apologies.
Woody, in CN they normally put the mm/dd/yyyy so the date on the report says 11th April 2008. The time of the article is 11.52 and it isn't 11.52 on 4th November anywhere in the world yet. I think this is correct - the bar at the top of the screen still reads 3rd November which is todays date.
the event was reported during the april 8-11 period. http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=54292&page=8 it's old news now. JXP not in the new coaching lineup either RETIRED: ZHANG Ning,GAO Ling,ZHANG Jiewen,WEI Yili,YANG Wei,CHEN Yu Coach changes of Chinese National Team!!! JI Xinpeng:Withdrew from national team for personal reason temporarily.The exact time when he return is not clear. Head coach:LI Yongbo Assistant General Coach:TIAN Bingyi(doubles) ,ZHONG Bo(singles)
Old news, what you didn't notice is that the news was incomplete with some typos. So the fight was just a rumor .
