    Let me ask you. The world championships, All England, Olympic Games, ASian games is Bigger(major) or smaller tournament than those super series title? I'm sure you are not stupid enough to figure them out too. No doubt LCW is a good ambassador for the SS tournaments. I'm just implying that in the future, he should just concentrate more towards the MAJOR title.;) which he is doing now.

    But you said NO NEED TO PLAY in small chilli padi tournament...? Are you sure that SS is considered chilli padi? Or were you referring to the National Grand Prix Finals in Terengganu and the German Open? ;)

    LCW has 3 missions, IMHO

    Regardless of what we think, LCW has 3 missions, IMHO. :):):)

    And they are;

    (1) To retain his World No.1 ranking until he retires
    (2) To win as many major tournaments before he retires
    (3) To improve his H2H results against LD before he retires

    The (1) is quite possible to achieve; but for (2) and (3), there won't be much time left for him.

    Let's hope he can improve on (2) and (3); but there is only about 16 months for him to work on it.

    I think George meant the German GP Gold held the week before AE. LCW signed up for it, later withdrew

    Dont forget to include RS also....

    **but seeing RASHID SIDEK's face sitting beside TSB is something not very good feeling for me. If TV is selling cheap in the market, i would have smashed right to his face using my tea cup.

    WORLD No 1 Lee Chong Wei ground China's Olympic champion Lin Dan's hopes of a fifth All England men's singles crown into dust, triumphing in a pulsating final to retain his title in Birmingham yesterday. The 28-year-old dropped to his knees and covered his face with his hands after clinching the final point in his 21-17, 21- 17 victory over Lin Dan for his eighth career victory over his rival to become the first Malaysian in 54 years to retain the All England title.

    Chong Wei's key to yesterday's victory was his explosive start in both games, which the China shuttler failed to absorb in the 52-minute encounter.

    The Penang-born began the match aggressively as it was the only way he had any hope of causing an upset.

    It was tight as both players exchanged points before Chong Wei, raced ahead 11-9 before taking a healthy 18-12 lead.

    But several unforced errors by Chong Wei allowed Lin Dan to reduce the deficit by a mere point but the Malaysian regained his intensity with a powerful smash to earn the final point.

    There was little to separate both players in the second game but Chong Wei used his lethal smashes effectively and took a midway lead at 11-9.

    Lin Dan kept digging deep and his efforts were rewarded as Chong Wei's focus started to waver, and the former world champion leveled at 17-17.

    However, Chong Wei showed why he is such an exceptional performer as he regained his composure and secured the next four points to win the second game and the title.

    It was Chong Wei's first victory, after two straight losses to Lin Dan, since his victory at last September's Japan Open final.

    Chong Wei, who has held the World No 1 ranking since Sept, 2008, earned US$26,650 (RM79,800) for his efforts while Lin Dan received US$13,300 (RM40,440).

    Meanwhile, it was not one of Wang Shixian's best performances but it was enough for the World No 1 to regain China's supremacy in the women's singles yesterday.

    Shixian did not let her injured left ankle stop her from ending Japan's World No 17 Eriko Hirose's gallant run with a hard fought 24-22, 21-18 victory in 55 minutes.

    Her unseeded opponent was determined to end Japan's 34-year wait for a title in the women's singles but Shixian's great mobility and patience won back China the title after a one-year lapse.

    "I had been a little bit nervous during some of the first game, especially when the score got close. But when I got back in it, I was relaxed. I really liked the atmosphere of the final," Shixian said.

    Eriko, however, earned a lot of fans at the stadium with her never-say-die attitude to push Shixian to the limits.

    Shixian earned US$26,250 (RM79,813) while runner-up Eriko received US$13,300 (RM40,438).

    WSX played first and LCW played last. 5 hours apart, hence the different exchange rate. Haha,,,,,
