Yeah, it will be more fun. My guess is there will be 3 or 4 upsets today. Let's see if my psychic ability works today.
Um, I don't recall myself predicting that LD will lost. I need to pay attention to what I wrote and read to avoid confusion.
Listening to Gill and Morten talking about LD's motivation and ambition, I guess no body really watched Badminton Unlimited videos. In Badminton Unlimited / Lin Dan - Profile videos / BWF 2019, LD himself stated that "My wish is to have an impact on budding players from all around the world who have a passion for badminton. I hope to make them realise that they should never give up on their dream to become a champion." When asked about his legacy he said, "I hope people don't remember Lin Dan just for the numerous titles he won or major title victories. I hope that I'll be remembered for my effort in pursuing my goal despite my poor performance in 2018 and my age. In my opinion this is more meaningful than winning titles."
Guess I should polish my writing skills so that there won't be any misleading. I never intended like what you mean. Pardon me.
