Bye Bye Mr. Thomas

Ha! Once again, our country hope to win back the Thomas Cup after 18 years will be still a dream yet to come. We were defeated by the defending champion, China 3-0. Perhaps we can try again in 2 years time.

Are we actually that bad to even score a point for ourselves. So as I was watching the first two matches; which we put high hopes on. Our players seems to be not so consistent compared to the Chinese, much of errors and maybe due to lack of confidence. Our mental strength is still not there yet. Well, maybe just not as tough as the Chinese.



From our first men singles, clearly Lin Dan just outplayed LCW 21-17, 21-8. Previously, I would say LD is the best in offense and speed while LCW in defense. After watching this match, I would say LD has all three of them. Seems that he is able to tackle all kinds of shots. It's always hard for LCW to beat LD. In terms of speed, thumbs up to LD as you can see the score for the 2nd game!

As for the men doubles, China's Cai Yun/Fu Haifeng just played excellently! I enjoy watching the match. With their fast game speed, no doubt they are able to win us.


Looking forward to the finals tomorrow.
Hope there will be surprises for all of us :)
