Yes, LD was only checking some calls but he ok all of them, and went back to focusing on the next rally.
Not only that, but before next point, he apologised to LCW for the delay and dispute.

he he, now cooler is back cool.If LD or baddy players wore swimsuit, that would make badminton more popular among some of the general public, with more ehem.... cuties or curves to observe.

hehehe, LCW should say thanks to LD for a free gifted point due to a technicality. LD was moving so fast that his shorts failed him, and like kwun said, even the rubber mat got wrinkled when LD breaks.Not only that, but before next point, he apologised to LCW for the delay and dispute.

LD was very gracious and polite throughout the match. Looks like he only focuses on winning and left his emotion off the court. Good for him!
none for LYBKwun : "TSF has tamed the roaring tiger and made him into a champion. i believe the true champion of the match should be TSF."
IMHO & to be fair, 1/4 of LD's gold medal should go to TSF, 1/4 goes to Chairman Mao, 1/4 goes to the spectators on spot, the rest goes to LD himself.
I watched the game live last night from Darwin Australia on TVRI. I have never seen such total domination in a singles match before between what should be two evenly matched players. Something just didn't add up to me. LD didn't tire even after a number of long rallys and just didn't show any physical effects of the game, even towards the death null. He was playing shots at the end of the game that were just as sharp as the first point. After also watching CJ & the Korean (CJ also being super fit) it was a different story, they both became very tired. In last nights game LCW was exhausted. He was sucking in every bit of free air he could get and it must have been like hitting against a wall. PG even scored better against LD compared to LCW which probably shouldn't be the case given PGs age. I just hope that everything was legit (not saying it's not and I'm very unbias) because he was like superman last night. LCW at his total best wouldn't have scored any better against such a barrage. Lets just hope that LD is 100% clean and hasn't used any artificial performance enhancing products. Badminton seems to be a really clean sport compaired to others and I pray it remains that way!! Lets just hope nothing comes out in the wash.

TSF prepared Lin Dan well. despite his skill and power, LD best weapon today was his focus and determination. if anything perturb his focus, LCW will be able to sneak in and reverse the match.
TSF knew that.
Throughout the match, LD have had chances of emotional outburst. when LD turns back to look at TSF, TSF will put both his hands up to tell him calm down. esp in the 2nd to last rally of the match. LD was in the verge of bursting with victory but he looked at TSF and LD signed back to TSF telling him that "yes yes, l will stay calm."
No one else could have done it. LD is the rebelious type who would defy authority. TSF had the complete respect and authority over this rebelious LD to keep him in full mental focus and stability. he has not only groomed him perfectly technically but he has also prepared him perfectly mentally.
TSF has tamed the roaring tiger and made him into a champion. i believe the true champion of the match should be TSF.
What did he do?none for LYB![]()
I think you put things out of perspective. if Lin Dan is God, then how bout michael phelps?
*conspiracy nonsense*
