It is indeed touching to know that This One Man can bring unity through Badminton. When he played, we played along with him... the "oooh-s" and the "ahhhhss".... the "clapping of hands"... the Cheers.... together we supported him morally if not physically...
It is really not easy to reach this stage, an event where he has been training tirelessly to gain a gold for Malaysia. His efforts and his determination and his cries touched our hearts.....
As the matches were going on last night, I was facebook-ing and my heart was thumping fast too... Sad to know that a man died while watching... the game was too intense... that shows that Lee Chong Wei has really played his very best last night, none can deny that....
