Lee becomes first Korean shuttler to win Indonesia Open men's singles Lee Hyun Il on Sunday became the first South Korean to win the men's singles in the Indonesian Open badminton tournament when he beat Thailand's Boonsak Ponsana in straight sets 15- 10, 15-3. "I feel happy," said Lee through an interpreter after taking the title and the 20,000-dollar prize, saying he had pushed for rapid rallies after realizing that Boonsak was avoiding fast games. Lee said he had had to exert himself more when facing Indonesia' s Sonny Dwi Kuncoro in the semi- finals. He got through to the finals of the 250,000 dollar event only after a tough rubber of 6-15, 15-7, 15-7. "I have to admit that my opponent is much better, his smashes are very steep and fast. I did not think the game would go that fast," Boonsak said. "In the second set, I did not know what to do." In the all-Indonesian mixed doubles finals, first- seeded team Nova Widianto and Liliyana Natsir beat Anggun Nugroho and Yunita Tetty, seeded seventh, 15-13, 15-1. In the men's doubles, also an all-Indonesian affair, the day's only rubber match ended in an upset win. Seventh-seeded Markis Kidho and Hendra Setiawan defeated first-seeded Candra Wijaya and Sigit Budiarto 15-10, 12-15, 15-1. In the women's singles final Hong Kong's Wang Chen easily beat Indonesian-born Dutch star Mia Audina Tjiptawan 11-7, 11-1. In the women's doubles, South Korea's Lee Kyung Won and Lee Hyo Jung defeated Malaysia's Wong Pei Tty and Chin Eei Hui 15-4, 15-5.
I think it's more like this : They COULD be our future successor ( as Indonesia's no 1 MD & one of world greatests ) if they could maintain their consistency playing like this ( the way they beat Chandra & Sigit ).
