Will Lee Chong Wei remain World No.1 until the 2012 OG?

[Jonc108]

a big no chk lcw ranking points ld wil become #1 in 2010

.. maybe not, LD may never be WR#1 again, if he don't want to, and just anticipated in international competitions as selective, and as few as this year...

As at the last BWF World Ranking List (released on Thursday 19-Nov-2009), we have;
1. MAS[MAS] Chong Wei LEE ... 82,971.06 points
2. CHN[CHN] Dan LIN .............. 71,344.58 points.

LD still needs more than 10,000 points to catch up with LCW.

i think ld knows how much less tournaments he entered and still at number 2, pretty good by any means. the big 4 are still consistently ranked year-in and year-out

Yes, it's a surprise that LCW, LD, TH and PG could still remain as the 4 Heavenly Kings of Badminton after so many years. Credit to them FOUR.

LD is still considered the "BEST" king because of his higher "win-lose ratio" whenever he plays. However, we should also give credit to LCW, TH and PG for participating in more tournaments; thereby entertaining us.

i think LD has a chance to get it back next year seeing as LCW will be playing more selectively and less tournaments next year.

watching the ssmf match lcw versus TH, i notice that lcw is playing a new style of badminton, adopted alot from LD's tactic. As someone has noted, lcw even modded his racket similar to LD.

I think if LD wants to regain his #1 status, he could do it pretty much anytime in my opinion. I don't think its too important for him to be #1 as he usually plays the major tournaments.

I also wondered if Lin Dan has a higher win ratio simply cos he conserves his energy by playing selectively in less tournaments cf LCW They are afterall humans and each player can only have a certain shelf life

LD slow down after mid 2008. His winning ratio before that time, is quite good may i say

Chong Wei pulls out

A day after sensationally defending his title in the 2009 Super Series Masters Finals, Malaysia’s Lee Chong Wei has dropped a bombshell by pulling out from the 2009 Laos SEA Games.

The world number one men’s singles shuttler has been certified to be medically unfit for the Games following the recurrence of a knee injury.

nah. in that match, it really obviously shows that taufik is not in lcw's class that day. no motivation to play at all. LCW's style of playing in front of home crowd is different tbh. just ask pemuda. nothing to do with lin dan.

Lets look thing in another view. A positive way. Malaysian team has been relying on LCW only for all this while. It is a good chance for other players to show everyone that they can also perform a good game. Of course the chance to get GOLD medal will be hard for Malaysian team without LCW but again as I said it's a chance for Kuan Beng Hong and the others to shine also. Like waht george said, lets look at the Malaysian team without LCW.
