Wah lau Wei!

It was a perfect start to the New Year.

World No 1 Lee Chong Wei unleashed the Dragon in him to edge arch rival Lin Dan of China 12-21, 21-18, 21-14 in the Korea Open men's singles final hours ago.

That's a good start for the Penangite as he now gears up for another possible mouth watering clash with Lin Dan in the Maybank Malaysia Open which starts on Tuesday.

Had Chong Wei lost in Seoul, I'm sure many would have raised the presumption that he desperately needs the services of former coach Misbun Sidek.

Now that he has won abroad, would the same critics say that Tay Seu Bock and Rashid Sidek still aren't good enough?

Food for thought.

HD says: Winning the Malaysia Open would be a treat for Chong Wei ahead of the Chinese New Year.

    Lin Dan is a moody player. he was clearly not in the mood after what he deemed as a bad line call in the rubber. Thereon he merely lifted the shuttle for LCW to kill...for Lin Dan and Co, losing in the final in a Super Series event is nothing...because they always seem to raise their game in tournaments that matter...

    Congrate LCW.

    What about KKK & TBH??..hopefully they will find peaceful solution and concentrating on their performance. Both of them are still young and have a very bright future. It is very sad to hear about their crisis.

Papa win, papa win.

Those were the words of three-year-old Dasha Ong. National coach Ong Kim Swee has not seen his wife Alodle Donna Derick, Dasha and his seven month old baby Dashie for almost a month. And the words of Dasha just hours prior the kick off between Indonesia and Malaysia in the final certainly motivated Kim Swee. In return, Kim Swee motivated the lads and they won. Read more in today's Mailsport. As expected members of the Press - even those not from the Sports Desk - had numerous questions for Kim Swee. Some wanted Kim Swee to share his experience in Jakarta, others were penning down every word of his when he slammed the organisers for their antics which certainly disturbed him and the boys. But the celebrations must come to an end as Kim Swee and the Olympic lads will now face Syria in the Asia zone Olympic qualifiers tonight (8.45pm). And Kim Swee had this to say: "The players are tired but with the support of the fans, if they come in full force, perhaps that will motivate our...

From 'Mr P' to 'Kemelut Dalaman BAM': Four chapters of 'mesej Whatsapp layang'

Image
Surat layang , or rather ' mesej Whatsapp (or some will pronounce as Wasup) layang '. That was what I received this afternoon from a number that is not registered on my phone. The sender identified him/herself as " ahli yg memerhati tingkah laku BAM " (Badminton Association of Malaysia). The four chapters were titled as:  'Siapa dia Tan Sri BAM "Mr P"' Perletakan Jawatan Presiden BAM 'Siapa Tengku Zafrul' Kemelut Dalaman BAM There were many allegations to which the sender justified as not " fitnah " but " hakikat apa yg berlaku ". The four chapters highlights Mr P's "connection kuat ", goes into why Tengku Zafrul was named as the incoming BAM president, and takes issue with the establishment of 'Yayasan Badminton Nasional' and Akademi Badminton Malaysia. The writer (unsure if the sender is also the writer) also wrote that ' majority in the Council dalam BAM semua tak berani buat laporan sebab tak...
