Prior to the dinner, we were watching Malaysia Open at home, supporting our national no 1 Lee Chong Wei. It was indeed an exciting match. I must credit Lee Chong Wei for his persistent spirit. He never give up, even though he was left behind with 1-10, but he continues to fight persistently and finally won the first match with 17-15. I truly admire his courage and his never give up spirit. He certainly deserve the title.. mmm tho... he has some advantage given by the lineman. There were a few occations where the shutter shot by Lin Dan was supposedly to be in, but it was declare out by the lineman, which gave Chong Wei the advantage over Lin Dan. Lin Dan, world no 1 played very tactful and well too.

Local shuttler Lee takes second Malaysian Open title

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s Lee Chong Wei put on a stirring display of attacking badminton before next month’s World Championship by bullying World number 1 Lin Dan from China into submission Sunday en route to his second successive Malaysian Open men’s singles title.

The number 4 seed recovered from a tentative start to win 17-15, 9-15, 15-9 in a contest that was highlighted by delicate drop shots at the net from two shuttlers renowned for their finesse. It was top seed Lin, however, who surged to a 10-1 lead in the first game while Lee struggled to cope with the Chinese ace, either at the net or from the back of the court. But roared on by a crowd of more than 3,000 at Kuala Lumpur Badminton Stadium, Lee closed the gap and led for the first time to reach game point at 14-13 before demonstrating his mental tenacity to win the first game 17-15. Southpaw Lin, a quarterfinalist in last year’s edition, was undeterred and bounced back to win the second game 15-9 by using a variety of shots against a tired Lee.

The script during the third game was eerily similar to the first, with Lin forging ahead at 7-0. But Lee battled his way back to draw level at 9-9 before pulling clear with a series of intelligent net play and crosscourt dropshots, eventually sealing the game after Lin sent his jumping smash beyond the line.

The victory, carved in 88 minutes, enabled Lee to join a select band of shuttlers who succeeded in retaining their men’s singles titles, following in the footsteps of Malaysia’s Wong Peng Soon, Thailand’s Charoen Watanasin, Malaysia’s Tan Aik Huang, China’s Xiong Guobao and former local favourite Rashid Sidek. Lee, 22, who received his prize from Malaysian Deputy Prime Minister Najib Razak, was elated with his maiden victory over the younger Lin.

Lee added that the win was crucial as the prestigious tournament was the final tune-up for the world’s best ahead of the International Badminton Federation (IBF) World Championships in Anaheim, United States, on August 15-21. “Once I cleared the quarterfinal stage by beating Taufik (Hidayat), I knew I had a bright chance of retaining the title,” Lee said.

Indonesian pair Chandra Wijaya and Sigit Budiarto lifted the men’s doubles title after overcoming China’s Fu Haifeng and Cai Yun in a thrilling tie to win 15-11, 17-14. In the women’s singles final, world number 2 Zhang Ning battled past unseeded Chinese compatriot Zhu Lin 11-6, 11-2 to secure her fourth Malaysian Open title.

In the all-Chinese women’s doubles final, top seeds Yang Wei and Zhang Jiewen were no match for Olympic champions Gao Ling and Huang Sui in winning 15-6, 15-8. The mixed doubles title went to Korean pair Lee Jae Jin and Lee Hyo Jung, who upset China’s number 3 seeds Chen Qiqiu and Zhao Tingting 15-12, 15-11. afp
