There there. You accused me of being a fan of LHI, and when I explain, you put forward a "reminder"... Did I mention "titles" as my reason? I mentioned level of playing. Just think about ZJH vs. YY and you will understand.
Chong Wei has been ranked #2 for quite sometime so it's not un-realistic to think he has chance to win the gold after he soundly beating Lin Dan in Thomas Cup. Lin Dan will still be the favorite after dominating in years as world #1. We can't judge just by one tournament so even Chong Wei win Singapore Open or fumble really doesn't mean much(at least to me), the key is to rectify his mistake/weakness before Olympic as stated by Misbun. We are all fan and Chong Wei is the one that has the best chance to win medal so it's not unreasonable to expect him to win, who else can the Malaysians count on besides Chong Wei? You don't think the Korean fan expect Hyun Il or Sung Hwan to win the gold too? I know these two players have every confident to beat the Chinese so why not thinking of the gold?
Which malaysian say chong wei will in beijing all based on thomas cup won. Hello...?I see none of them. why bring it up?
Motivation for TH??.. ..out of the entire MS lot that will be competing in the upcoming Olympic Games, only Taufik has the Gold Medal (and defending champ). I know his motivation & desire are probably no longer there but perhaps, just perhaps the only motivation for Taufik to go all out and do his best is to play as if someone has just stolen his 2004 Olympic Gold medal...
Just 'looking' isn't going to be enough to win a second Olympic medal, much less the gold. Taufik has been an 'onlooker' for quite a few recent tournaments. If he wants to even be in contention this time, He needs to buckle up real tight... ...and Indonesia can only hope that he's busy doing it right now. It's not just Lin Dan and Lee Chong Wei waiting to meet him.
he he, for Indonesia's sake, maybe someone would do just that, steal Taufik precious OG medal, that will get him fired up.
It is not the matter got choice or not, it's whether he is capable to win that gold or not.. Ask our LCW 1st before LD choose want or not to grab that gold medal
