Do you know the sensitivity and specificity of MRI scan as a diagnostic test in MCL injury?
And it was the media who reported his injury.

Of course I don't know about it. People here seems to think otherwise though, saying it's "fake" without any evidence. Hendrawan confirms LCW's injury. Less bias please.
Actually, people will re-question the original diagnosis as the recovery period seems remarkably quick for a top class athlete in this particular injury especially to get to near the top of his game.
Doctor's and diagnostic tests are not infallible.
It is not bias.
LOL I thought LCW did something offensive after reading some comments here about his behavior at 16-7 points in the semi-final.
He just raised his hand to celebrate? That's it??
Here I thought he was celebrating excessively by shouting at his opponent, take off his clothes or throwing his racket
We have seen much worst behavior from other players though
Chillax and stop over analyzing his action
There is not much time left for him as he is getting older
At his age, its not easy to win especially when there are many younger players and he is more prone to injury
Other single players have chosen to retire at LCW's age and here we have LCW who still keeps going on strong as WR1
Anyway congrats LCW
Honestly I thought he will retire after Olympic games last year
I guess he is still not willing to hang up his racket yet
Bravo for his determination

The trend will continue, PG captured his last Europe Championship at 34, LD won AE at 33, Sony DK won Singapore Open at 32, now LCW got AE at 34. Just like in tennis recently Roger Federer and Serena Williams, both at 35, who just won the recent Wimbledon.
First thing that comes to mind is Axelsen's mentality (aka the Danish Temper) and also his physicality during rubber sets are.... erm.... lacking for a better word, stretched.

Depends on the match. In the OG Bronze match, he was fine with 3 games, but in the AE, LD made him run a LOT, especially in G2. Also I guess VA got frustrated since so many of his attacking shots came back and he couldnt get on the attack quite enough...

I didn't make myself clear enough, my bad. I don't mean to say that Chou raised his arm like Lee did, but Chou celebrated almost every point he EARNED in the first game of the semifinal, and there's nothing wrong with it, as with Lee's celebration after a hard fought point.
Sorry for being too bashful. I was in a really bad mood that day because of all the hate Lee is getting, even if it's not his fault.
P.S. As for the affair with MF, I believe Lee should apologize to MF. He shouldn't have gone public with this matter, and he shouldn't have threatened to leave BAM if they don't get rid of MF. Whatever issue they have, they should sort it out on their own, privately. Using the media to pressure BAM and MF just feel like he's using his star power to bully MF. The fact that MF had to communicate with Lee through his coach or whoever tells me they really haven't had the chance to talk face to face. Only more misunderstanding will spawn from communicating through a middle person.
LCW went to a rubber to vanquish CTC. LCW is fitter than LD and he is 1 year older than LD too.
it is not lazy lah... like Taufik it is time for LD to retire for good.
boohoooo.... "probable LD let Shi win in the SF." If it was true, the strategy did not work as LCW trounced Shi in the Final. It was not even close.
Do you think LCW will be able to play in next year AE as he said while still remains under BAM? It is interesting that he said he will back to Birmingham next year.
it is called intimidation tactic. LCW, Marin and Kevin do it once a while. It is fine IMHO.

Marin does it more than once in a while though
We all should watch the new Wolverine's movie "Logan" coming out already.

Keep in mind that MF is NOT hired by BAM, but by Malaysian government.
That really adds to the possible tensions in the whole setup.

Nope, he faced his opponent when doing so.
but did he face LCW when doing so?
I suppose I have to just make it absolutely clear again that I am not opposed to raising fists or shouting after winning points. I don't think players (not one player) should be directly facing their opponent when doing so.

If we believe what the commentators say during the matches, to raise the fist facing your opponent is actually forbidden, but a lot of players do it, perhaps without realising

I don't think he need to apologize. The altercation started after Rio when MF already want LCW to retire. Meanwhile MF himself still don't have anyone in the camp that is capable of winning titles in MS. MF was the one who didn't let TSB to be with him during Japan Open but LCW responded by actually WINNING the Japan Open.
LCW requested for a mat change but everything was ignored until he was injured then he was asked via Hendrawan when he's retiring by MF. I think LCW already been quiet for so long until he erupted in the media. The whole thing started after Rio but it only come into surface earlier this year. How would you feel as an athlete if you know you could still win titles but already asked to retire ? And this he responded by winning Japan Open, then now All England which can be a huge moral boost to win WC. It took immense effort to stay in shape at his age, working hard on court and leaving his family for a long time for tournaments abroad. With how he's been treated by MF, I don't see how he owe any apology to him. It was MF who triggered the feud.
Some Malay friends actually said ang mo MF is prolly just trying to pave way for his home boy Axelsen by trying to get rid of LCW off his way to smooth him winning big titles. But LCW is fighting back his right to still play. What do you say to that claim?
