Why do you still continue to nag like an old lady? Don't you get my earlier message?
What happens if something happens to the dato and he could not play even in the LOG?

I've a feeling that the wily LD is camouflaging a strategy to confound and mislead others into thinkiing he has lost form and is not interested in the LOG anymore.

But as far as I'm concerned he is as dangerous as the lion outside his den. That is Li-n D-n!

lin dance or lion dance is still the best MS in the world...

I certainly hope the dato is well prepared when the time comes.

WOW... What a great match it was - at the just finished Semi-Final match between Lee Chong Wei and Chen Long (at the 2012 Malaysia Open SS Semi-Finals).

This match was many times more spectacular than the match at the 2012 Korea Open SSP Finals where Lee Chong Wei defeated Lin Dan.

Will Lin Dan and Chen Long be giving up chasing for the No.1 seed at the 2012 OG? I would think so.

For some BCers who are thinking other than the No.1 MS position, please think again.

We repeat - In this thread we are not talking about which player is better - But will Lee Chong Wei remain World No.1 until the 2012 OG?.

From this 2 tournament, he should be top. He is the most consistent in terms of being in the finals and winning tournaments in 2012.

Lee Chong Wei won again the 2012 Malaysia Open SS.

From now onwards, I think it will be very difficult for others to replace him as World No.1 at the 2012 OG.

And also, I am quite certain that Wang Yihan (Womens Singles) and Zhang Nan/Zhao Yunlei (Mixed Doubles) will also remain as World No.1's at the 2012 OG.

Yes, with his on fire form now, i think it is hard for anyone including lin dan to overtake him before the OG.

This thread started on 06-April-2009. Soon it will be 06-April-2012.

Many BCers would have been surprised that LCW's World No.1 position has lasted so long.

**george@chongwei** · 01-18-2012, 11:09 PM

I believe even LCW himself surprised about this too

I wonder if some BCers can confirm that LCW holds the record for keeping the World No.1 ranking the longest period of weeks/years in our Badminton history.

i recall GC mentioned that M Frost was world No 1 for 7 years and never dropped out of the top 3 for 12 years.

Thanks AlanY. You have caused me to check up on Morten Frost.

Wikipedia confirmed that Morten Frost spent twelve years in the top three of the world rankings.

Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morten_Frost

From what I see, this record could be broken by Lin Dan soon.

Regarding Morten Frost being World No.1 for 7 years, I shall confirm it later. I shall get in touch with DEN Badminton players.

Since we are in OG. One suggestion is. Since labour is cheap in malaysia comparing to hiring foreign talents.

Why don't BAM hire a few committees members to just focus on the strength and weaknesses of Lindan and Chen Long?

Have a review of this every week or 2. See if the hypothesis is true.

Bingo?

LCW owes me big time... lol.

This can be applied to politician bribery case. Put 2 auditors to 1 minister. See if they dare to corrupt. lol.
