Watching Lee Chong Wei playing Lin Dan in any badminton tournament I always have a bad predicament for Chong Wei. Not that I'm not patriotic, not supporting of our own player, but high expectations have always turned into big disappointment, times and again, it was proven to be like that. Chong Wei playing Lin Dan in the All England final, similarly, I'm watching with high spirit hoping our player will out do the cocky and arrogant Chinese player, but to my disappointment, Chong Wei did improve his game but far from enough to match Lin Dan's consistency and pace. Lin Dan's smashes were so deadly and his net plays were accurate too.
But at least, Chong Wei's performance in the final of All England was better than his worst ever encounter against Lin Dan in the Olympic, at least he was more spirited. Chong Wei is not only facing Lin Dan but the whole army of Chinese players, look at how Chen Jin conceded a walk-over to Lin Dan in the semi final so that Lin Dan will have a better stamina to play in the final. But what ever reason it is, a second best is still a second best.

I just like the confidence exuded by Lin Dan, he might look kind of cocky though but he is still the best, he is not easily intimidated and shaken from few points down, he would just fight back,and that's all makes him so great. I have never seen him playing under pressure, may be he had but his opponents might not get to see it.
take care bro and long time no see
