    If china doesn't win this singles, will it be considered a failure? Anyone know how many gold LYB targeted? Pressure will be on China.

    Congratuiation to LHJ/LJJ, well deserved win. Koreans employed the right strategy playing for power game so Indonesia pair has less chance to showcase their shuttle placement talent.
    LHJ also commited less error than usual, partly was because her partner was taking most of the returns.

    No!
    It was definitely Kim DM and Gil Youngah vs Park JB/Ra KM. Atlanta 1996

    Park JB once told me that Ra's mother never forgets this incident and was not friendly minded facing Kim DM at first. That was one of the reasons why they kept their liason so long secret.

    I am hoping for MAS to win at least 1 gold. They definately deserve one.

    Lee Chong Wei will make history for Malaysia if he wins!

    Congrats to KOR pair LYD/LHJ in winning the gold medal in Mixed.
