-Olympic Day 6 Badminton Games Review-

The only events that I managed to catch up in this Olympic so far was only Badminton! Sigh too busy with Visiting lecture and upcoming assignment...


Anyway there is some review of Malaysia Badminton player performance in Beijing up to day 6--->>>


Wong Pei Tty & Chin Eei Hui (Women's Double)
- They failed to march into quarter final round when they lost to Korean top pair...But, there was no high expectation on them...


Choong Tan Fook & Lee Wan Wah (Men's Double)
- Seeded 4th in their final appearance in this Olympic but they failed to live up to expectation when they were beaten by Indonesian top seeded pair...However they gave a good fight!


Wong Choong Hann (Men's Single)
- WCH gave a great fight against Taufik Hidayat and destroyed his dream of defending his Gold medal...However, he was eliminated in round 16 where he lost to Taipei player...It was quite disappointing that he is beaten by this young Taipei player...This will be his last Olympic...


Wong Mew Choo (Women's Single)
- Mew Choo is unlucky where she was draw to play with China's Lu Lan for a place in Semi Final...She has 9 game point and yet she lost 27-29 to Lu Lan in 2nd game thus losing the chance to create history...But, she is the 1st Malaysian women single player who advance into quarter final in Olympic history...Kudos Mew Choo...*Anyway its all China Final for Women Single again...Getting so bored with China Domination*


Koo Kien Keat & Tan Boon Heong (Men's Double)
- They finally get their revenge against Japanese pair showing a great fight! However, it was such a major let down again when they lost to Markis Kido and Hendra Setiawan (the same pair who beaten Ctf/Lww earlier) where they have an unbeatable record against them...Rexy once said: Kkk & Tbh are not the best yet unless they win the Olympic Gold Medal...It seems like its the end of everything for our Men's double...


Lee Chong Wei (Men's Single)
- Malaysia last hope in winning a medal in 2008 Olympic...Lcw has been consistent in beating Sony Dwi Kuncoro and book a place in the Semi Final...He will be up against Korea's Lee Hyu Nil tomorrow for a place to Final...Hoping that he will be able to keep up to his momentum and advance to the Final round where he will be secure of either silver or gold medal...The other Semi Final match will be between Lin Dan & Chen Jin...

China is currently leading with 22 Golds follow by USA with 10 Golds...Looks like China is really determine to be the overall champion and I have a feeling that YES they can do it!

But sorry la...I don't hope they dominate all the gold medals in Badminton...
