I bet all of you had been at the edge of your seats when you were watching LeeChongWei's match against Lee Hyun-il huh? Sigh. Sadly, Lee won. I hope LinDan can muster up all his best moves to beat Lee. LinDan deserves to win more, I think la.
I know I'm the only one in Msia who thinks so. :x
Btw, these are the finals match-ups:
Men Singles: Lee Chong Wei (MAS) against Lin Dan (CHN).
Men Doubles: Fu Haifeng-CaiYun (CHN) against Markis Kido-Hendra Setiawan (INA).
Mixed doubles I'm not sure.. Women singles also not sure, but I do know that Zhang Ning beat Maria Kristin Yulianti to reach the finals. She was pretty emotional.
Anyways, pictures.
LeeYongdae-JungJaesung.

Congratulations to China's women doubles team for winning the gold and bronze medals!! :D DuJing-YuYang beat Korea's LeeKyungwon-LeeHyojung in the finals, while WeiYili-ZhangYawen beat Japan's Satoko Suetsuna-Miyuki Maeda in the bronze medal playoff.

And, ROGER FEDERER is OUT! Omg. And just now Nadal played against Djokovic. Three sets. Nadal won in the end. Djokovic was so disappointed. He cried, I think. :( Whyyyyyyyyy!! Nadal so...yer. ==
Michael Phelps won his sixth Olympic gold medal today. 4x100m individual medley, I think. And yes, he smashed the old world record en route to winning the gold medal. :) Apparently, he is the betting companies' worst nightmare, cos everyone bets that he'll win, and mostly, he does. Lols! He is currently the "Best Olympian", a total of 12 gold medals.
YangWei of China won the men individual gold medal for artistic gymnastics. Nastia Liukin of USA won the women individual gold medal. Shawn Johnson of USA got 2nd while China got 3rd.
There are so many badminton matches tomorrow! Go watch! Go go go! :D Starts at about 10 or 11 am, if I'm not wrong.
Have fun! Toods!
ps Olympic theme songs are AWESOME! :D "One world One dream" by LeeHom and "Beijing huan ying ni" by Chinese singers. ;)
