    Yeah, but its easier to lose to a good friend than a stranger or at least it doesn't hurt that much. At the very most, Chen Jin simply buys less Armani Exchange or D&G junk, no big harm. :D :p

    EastDevil, i've noticed that you always mentioned about Armani or D&G junk. what isit about ?

    On regarding Chen Jin sportmanship.. Its Chen Yu. If it's LinDan.. it will be a different story.

    Oh, from the blog of Lin Dan's friend, there's always pictures of Lin Dan/chen Jin always shopping for those few brands everywhere they go. :D They simply are crazy about these 2 brands.

    To be fair to Lin Dan, he might not be the hugging type especially the alpha-male kind of character types like Lin Dan. When was the last time you hug another man? :D :D

    Were there ever any player who was very unhappy or unsportsmanlike when he/she lost to their friend/teammate? Anybody remember such an incident?

    Let's don't take away credits from CJ for his good sportsmanship, be the fact he's a good friend with CY or not. We build our manner from normal life, which means, build among the ppl who see you, work with you or live with you everyday, right? It's not like you get a good/bad manner from no where, and suddenly show it after a tourny. ;)

    Chen Jin has got it all worked out. He unsettled guys like Hafiz and then Chen Yu with his clever movement of the shuttlecock. If he keeps this up, I predict he will be next World Champion.

    When I saw him a couple of months back, he not able to protect the shuttle. It seems like he has that covered now. Good on him. LCW has now someone to reckon with besides Lin Dan and Chen Yu.

    What I saw was clearly a case of moving the shuttle fast all over the court to unruffle your opponent. Hafiz got tired by this and when he did, he tried trick shots, which failed miserably the other day. Chen Yu also plays the same way. Expect this style of game to win.

    Chen Jin already holds a 6 star and a 4 star titles. Whie Chen Yu has nothing.

    Chen Jin will be ranked at number 4 no matter he win or loss, while the win will improve Chen Yu's ranking by 2.

    So Chen Yu must have been more hungy and eager to grab this ThaiOpen, and Chen Jin full understood it, so his sportsmanship is really a true blessing from the bottom of his heart.
