Gold for Men doubles

Malaysia won the Badminton men doubles through koo Kien Keat and Tan Boon Heong in the Asia Games yesterday night. This ends the 36 years gold drought in the Asia Games for Badminton. I didn't wach the game live but I was checking the live results through the net. They were simply impressive. They win all games in the tournament with straight sets despite they are rank 136th in the world.

Rexy had definitely made the right choice to bring this new pair to Doha. They are Malaysia's future and they are very young, aged at 21 years old and 19 years old. By the way, Lin Dan lost to Taufik in the Mens final. I used to support Lin Dan some time ago but i feel fed-up with his unsporsmanship behaviour(especially after the 2006 Malaysia open). Look at this video. He kicked his racquet after he lost the game to Chong Wei. I remembered that Lin Dan had at least 7 match point in that game but in the end Chong Wei won that game.



Similar thing hapened yesterday. In the second set against Taufik, Lin Dan had 3 match point(20-17) but Taufik get 5 straight points to wrap the game 22-17. Hopefully this will teach him a lesson not to be that arrogant!
