LCW's chance is enhanced by his recent win in the JO (forget about Macau, coz after the JO win, where he anihilated players like LD, CY, Boonsak & Taufik, he knew he could afford a loss in Macau --- Macau was only a 'saviour' if JO went wrong). Apart from the reported flu, which I am sure he will recover quickly, he must be rated highly. If I say he will win, everybody takes me verbatim and will cruxify me if he does not. What I will say is that there is no reason why he would not win if he is fit. DO is a super series and he knows eyes are watching. I don't think the pressure is that great -- he is feeling good within himself after the 'Chief Coach' saga had resolved. Expect the best yet to come from LCW as he steps up to this DO challenge -- the whole bloody Malaysian camp is buzzling with enthusiasm. It doesn't augur well for China nor Indonesia if the other Malaysian boys decide to do well too, fuelled by this energy of Captain LCW.
WOW...Xball, this is one of your wise comment..... good that you do not put anyt pressure to LCW.... hope he plays well....I think he recovered his flu now....
Is a Super Series so the competition is fierce and LCW better be ready as being 2nd seed will not guarantee winning!!! Win or lose, what I like Lee Chong Wei is he handles the lost better now which is the sign of maturity. You can't win all the time but you can certainly learn from losing and continue to improve ... Malaysia is lucky to have Chong Wei, without him, we really have nothing!(Don't mean to dis-respect other MS players, but LCW is the only one capable of achieving something in recent years). So appreciate and value his contribution now and hope for the best. Malaysia Boleh.
Well without him, I don't think you would have seen me here. I only join BC to find out more about how players fare, particularly LCW.
LEE CHONG WEI...... pls go ahead at the tournament!!!! i knw u can de~~~~ n will support u!!!!! all malaysia must support!!
Come one.. join BC just to find out how LCW fare? You must be joking.. there are better infos back home.
It is funny how you can only see things from LCW's perspective, but not from other players as well... If the high-lighted part is true... then Lin Dan can also say his loss in the Japan open, is because he can afford to lose in the Japan open after his impressive win in the World Championship, and (using your own word) the Japan open is only a "Saviour" if World Championship went wrong.
And sure he can -- I cannot stop that and neither can anyone stop me from saying my piece. Everyone has his/her own reasons and who is to say I am wrong or you are right, except yourself. If you believe in what I say, then you will say I am right but since we are of different brain waves, you would contradict me.
Wrong, it is how players fare (also includes supporting them), particularly LCW -- so not just LCW. Nothing else really interest me - PAW, nope; Others, nope.
The Super Series events are interesting because most players (esp those ranked 8 and below) are guaranteed a meeting with the top players (eg: Taufik and Simon in today's match) as early as the second round. Lee Chong Wei has been pretty consistent in maintaining at least top 4-seeds in the SS events. This time, he has a pretty good draw until the QF and then the tough matches will start. If he can overcome the giant-slaying Przemyslaw Wacha, it's very likely he will face Sony Dwi Kuncoro in the QF tomorrow. If LCW is playing true to his form, he still has the edge against Sony, however, he showed his vulnerability sometimes in recent times too, losing both to Sony and Simon So, it will be another interesting match to watch tomorrow. Unfortunately, I will be away to Changsha for the weekend and unlikely to view the livescores Assuming LCW can take care of Sony, then either Taufik or Chen Jin or Bao Chunlai will be his obstacle in reaching the Final. He has good records against all these players and we'll witness if he can set up another meeting with possibly Lin Dan or Peter Gade in the Final this week.
Forget about Sony or Taufik, the new badminton superman WACHA of Poland will defeat LCW tomorrow and send him for a tour in Denmark, just like he did for BP. WACHA Boleh!!!!
For LCW, playing Simon or Sony is harder than playing Taufik, LD.... So..I am very confident Sony will be able to handle LCW....
I don't disagree with u. LCW is seemingly troubled more by Sony and Simon than by Taufik and LD recently. But, I believe that LCW can avenge his loss to Sony if they meet again.
