LYD said he's no longer doing XD. I thought he was just gonna rest XD for awhile but it seems that he will just play MD from now on.
Somehow, it's a good news because, even before his arm injury, i always founded that LYD was better in a discipline and go further in a tournament when he lost in the other (except in the WC 2009).
It says that she want to quit to continue with her education here is proof http://www.bwfbadminton.org/news_item.aspx?id=42287
well if that's true, then he has only a few months to find a partner before qualification starts. Realistically though, I think he will stay with MD, and I would be looking for some pair from China to win at OG2012
off topic: ..LYD winning back-2-back XD OG title is a bonus, but imo, he should focus to get the OG MD title instead..
