Mel and I bought a season ticket to watch the badminton matches. My favourite men’s double, Cai Yun and Fu Haifang from China were here. Too bad. Neither did I manage to catch them live nor catch them on TV.
They were not as strong and powerful as before. I expected them to at least fight their way to semi-finals but they did not. They lost to the Indonesia team during quarter finals. I rushed home from the stadium in fact to try to watch them play on TV. However, it was not telecast as it was time for the next program to be telecast. I missed it!
We went to watch the semi-finals at the indoor stadium but stayed home to watch the final. The Final was fully telecast. It was nice to watch at home as my three angels were with me. I always love to do everything at home.
The picture below was taken during the second day of tournament. Lee Yong Dae was practising before the match started that day.
To me he was like “action, action”. Since I was an hour early and had nothing to do, I took some pictures.
This year, the women’s double and women’s single went to China. Mixed double, men’s singles and men’s double went to Indonesia.
I don’t know if Li-Ning would sponsor again next year but I hope someone does. I still love to watch it again.
