Great player, great opponent. It's sad he cannot win the first gold medal for his country but he definitely gave his best. The pressure is just to much: [rquoter] “I apologise to all the Malaysian people,” a distraught Chong Wei said. “I wanted very much to win the first ever gold medal for my people. I worked very hard but what is done is done." [/rquoter] I heard his semi final game against the 4th seed Chen Long is one of the best badminton. I am still looking for a replay of that match.
Actually I saw it last night on NBC. I think it was the late night and only the last set, but that was a heck of a match. About as intriguing as badminton gets.
