    Lin Dan not in good shape, many of his shots if executed right should've been winners, like in his younger days. What's happened to LD's preparation coming to the Olympics, I wonder. if anything, he won't say until it's over, of course.

    I'm sure LD will try his hardness not to be on the podium with CL & LCW above him.
    and for what? a bronze medal!

    Why bother winning bronze when you can go home with no medal at all, am I right? :D

    Well, i can't imagine how big is the heartbreak of BAM and most Malaysian fans if LCW lose the final match. They have the opportunity to win 3 gold (yes, two of them is unexpected and even final is a blessing) but to have a hope and suddenly crushed, plus they have big reorganization on coaches and directors to make Malaysian badminton great again, they have the chance now, but seems not enough.

    As amazing as it is that ld could win with his play style now, it's just hard to watch.

    If this is the gold medal match with Chen Long, it'll be over in two sets

    This feels an awful lot like the Japan open final. I think Axelsen will have a healthy lead and then throw it, not being able to wrap it up

    Don't let them have the satisfaction. Lose LD!
    But I pity the crowd.

    If LCW loses later...he could possibly give up on chasing for another gold and WC altogether.
